you have facilitated so much learning about myself.
You've helped me more than any counselor I've gone to."
~A.C., coaching client
Why hire me?
Because my clients get results (check out what they say)
That's the number 1 reason. Everything else pales in comparison.
Because I will not judge you, yet I will hold you to your best.
The insights and practices I offer you on our journey together will be rooted in my deep listening into who you are and how you see the world – and in my knowledge of how people change. What I won't do is tell you you're wrong, or you've failed, or you should or you shouldn't.
Because we co-create a custom-designed plan for moving forward powerfully.
Very few coaches provide a detailed, custom, written plan for achieving your goals, based on an extensive intake. But I see this process as essential; we need a map to plot a course for the future. So together we design a flexible blueprint for the work we will do together.
Because my background has prepared me well to be as effective as my clients say I am.
