How can coaching help me? | Top

Coaching provides tools that will evoke action and shift the interpretations that create our thoughts, feelings and outcomes. This empowers you to greater accountability and integrity. People hire a coach for many reasons such as when they are re-evaluating their choices, contemplating or making transitions, or want to achieve something extraordinary. Coaching works well when individuals are open to new ideas and ways of being, are ready to be courageous in the face of the unknown, and want to make a difference in the world.

Coaching addresses the full spectrum of issues in our lives including employment, change, creativity, finance, health, fitness and wellness, project initiation and completion, performance enhancement, leadership and management development, relationships and parenting, to name just a few.

What are some benefits of coaching? | Top

Your coach becomes your partner, standing with you, taking an objective, comprehensive and compassionate look at what’s going on for you, and creating a safe space where you uncover your own answers to your own challenges.

The coaching relationship supports and empowers you:

to discover your unique filters and beliefs, and how they affect decisions you’ve made about yourself and the world

to understand how your integrity and the integrity of the people with whom you relate colors everything in your work and in your life

to recognize the ways you show up in the world and how the way you think and feel about yourself factors into getting what you say you want

to navigate complicated issues and make positive progress

to complete projects with more ease

to experience the freedom and joy that comes with being who you truly are and the perspective to change your life in ways you never dreamed were possible.

Uniting a fragmented team or family
Existential or mid-life crisis
Strengthening your parenting style, strategy and relationship
The loss of your vision or focus in the midst of the day-to-day chaos
Motivating or inspiring others, or yourself
Seeking a committed life partner or navigating the world of dating
Uncovering hidden limitations to your success or the success of the bottom-line
Life transition moments such as marriage, retirement, birth and death, disappointment and loss, and a host of other relationship issues

What’s the process of coaching? | Top

Coaching is a partnership between client and coach. This relationship is built on our intention to support you in achieving your desired outcomes. Through powerful inquiry the coach creates the space for you to uncover any limiting or conflicting beliefs which may be in the way of what you say you want. Typically sessions last 50 minutes and occur once a week or every other week. Frequently you will leave the session with activities to support you in integrating the changes you wish to make. Sessions can take place by phone, in person, via email, or video conferencing.

Coaching or Therapy? | Top

Coaching works best for people who are psychologically healthy, who want to make changes in their lives and are ready and able to take action. Unlike psychotherapy, coaching deals primarily with the conscious mind, with the functional aspects of the individual, and with unblocking the present and the future. By examining and owning your role in creating your life transformation is possible.

How do I start? | Top

We suggest you start by self-assessing your coachability. In the “Connect” section, you can download a pdf to help you determine your readiness for coaching.

To identify an appropriate coach go to the “Who We Are” section where you will find extended profiles including experience, specializations and email contacts. We encourage you to contact the coach of your choice for your complimentary 30-minute phone conversation.

Structure and Fees | Top

Each of our coaches will create a unique compensation and coaching structure based on your needs. Our fees start at $100 for a 55 minute session, with a four session minimum. We offer a $10 30-minute introductory phone session to assess your objectives and determine if we can deliver outstanding value to you.
