Why Coaching?

We all, to one extent or another, are prisoners of our own thought patterns and ways of seeing the world. It can be hard to address our problems, or areas of stuckness, within the confines of a perspective that cannot see outside itself.

Coaching provides an outside perspective, as well as a safe and supportive space for grappling with areas of internal struggle. It can help you to live in closer alignment with what really matters to you. If approached from a place of earnestness, honesty, and a willingness to entertain new ideas and experiment with new actions, it can be a tipping point into greater clarity and a greater sense of living purposefully.

My Coaching Approach and Philosophy

As your coach, I am committed to being your ally in helping you arrive at personally empowering choices and decisions. I operate from the premise that you have your own inner wisdom, and my role is to help draw this out of you so you can effectively tap into your own resourcefulness.

I provide a supportive atmosphere wherein I encourage you to express yourself and acknowledge the different parts within – the multiplicity of needs that may seem to be at odds with each other. All must be considered and attended to if you are to come up with workable solutions and action steps.

Unlike as may be the case with friends, family members, or significant others, I am not attached to your making any specific life decision. Sometimes the best decision we can make at one point in our lives is the opposite of the best decision we can make at another. Context is everything, and only you can decide, ultimately, what is best for you. What I may do is point out observations I make about the things you say and the way you say them. I may ask you to “try on” different scenarios or possibilities in your mind and see how they sit with you, so that you can determine for yourself what feels most right for you.  

I also provide accountability – that is, someone to check in with to confirm that you are seeing through your own commitments to yourself.
