Coaching as a career is the culmination of many interests and experiences.
I offer skills developed as a therapist with practical goal setting, action plans, and supportive accountability. I help create a “landing field” for my client’s goals and feelings. A place to settle in and review what is true for that time. This is where a journey unfolds.
Many times clients start with one goal, only to find out that a different and more compelling goal is underneath. “You just never know” has revealed its mystery more than once. The variety of coaching services that I offer work to guide clients toward a deeper connection with themselves, their work, and their lives.
