In your free discovery session, I’ll walk you through the logistics of a typical session in detail: experiencing it is the best way to understand the process. The content of each session typically includes a check-in on how you’re doing with things you worked on in previous sessions and what you’d like to work on in the current session, the coaching conversation in which I facilitate your processing and offer tools specifically designed to keep you moving forward from the point where you are in your journey through my coaching system, and some wrap-up time for you to reflect on the session’s content and set intentions for how you want to use it to achieve your goals for yourself.

Yes! In addition to 1:1 coaching packages, I also offer group coaching packages. And any clients who have completed coaching with me in either format are invited to join my coaching community group. This online community offers you a chance to be surrounded by others who can understand aspects of your journey, listen and encourage you to keep focusing on your goals, and walk alongside you in compassionate, empowering ways as you all continue to grow and learn together! Once you begin coaching with me, you’re not on your own anymore.

The time it takes to see tangible results varies from person to person, as it's highly dependent on individual circumstances and the complexity of the issues being addressed. Some clients notice a shift in their perspective and an increase in motivation after just a few sessions, while others may take longer to implement changes and experience significant life transformations. Consistency and a willingness to engage in the process are key to achieving your goals.

While life coaching and therapy can complement each other, they are not the same. A therapist is to a life coach much like a physician is to a physical therapist. The doctor and the PT can both help you if you’re having trouble with your leg, but what they can do for you and how they go about it is different in important ways. If you develop a painful rash on your leg, you need a physician, because with her knowledge and skills she can recognize that having had chickenpox as a kid, what you’re now seeing on your leg is shingles, and she can work with you to make a plan of care for your healing. If, on the other hand, you’ve gotten in the habit of walking on your leg in a particular way that has you off balance now, the PT can help you find your balance again and help you get back to using your full range of leg motion. My coaching approach uses psychological theories, such as Internal Family Systems, as models of the mind as we work together to clear out mental obstacles and beliefs that may be keeping you stuck. But like a physical therapist and a physician may both have chairs and tables and stairs in their offices for different purposes, I use those personality models differently than a therapist does.

If you're feeling stuck, uncertain, or simply aware that you're not living the life you desire, you're a good candidate for life coaching. It's a good fit for those who are ready to make changes but need support and guidance to move forward. Whether you're dealing with a significant life transition, looking to improve personal relationships, seeking career advancement, or wanting to develop a deeper understanding of yourself, life coaching can be an invaluable resource. The best way to find out is to reach out for an initial consultation to discuss your unique situation.
