Free Consultation
Congratulations on taking the first step towards designing the life you want! In a 20 minute no-obligation consultation call we will talk about what you are interested in working on, and how I can support you in reaching your goals.
Got a Question?
Below are questions people typically have when they seek out coaching. If you have other questions please fill out the contact form.
I embrace the Co-Active perspective that we are all naturally creative, resourceful, and whole with an innate capacity to grow, develop and create a satisfying life.
During our sessions you will find the space to become aware, explore and let go of any limiting stories, strategies, attachments and assumptions that may be blocking you from creating and experiencing what you do want.
In our Co-Active relationship our focus is on your whole person, engaging your heart, mind, body, and spirit to support full expression of who you are, which ultimately creates your sustainable path to transformation.
Lessons from my personal journey included the discovery that pursuit of worldly success is not the answer to our deepest longings. Neither is sacrificing what we need in order to please others. Greater peace and joy becomes possible when we are authentic & living a life aligned with the all of who we are. From a place of honest self-understanding, genuine self-love, & self-acceptance we are able to make life enhancing choices, & respond to stressors and conflicts with greater peace and grace. Mastering our nervous system (fear, overwhelm, anxiety),and identifying & honoring healthy boundaries supports our progress.
We achieve our best outcomes when we:
- Explore with curiosity & openness
- Suspend judgement
- Become willing to be with the discomfort of discovering your own self-limiting habits
- Are accountable for our choices & outcomes
- Engage courage as we practice taking new actions
We can have a coaching conversation about any area of your life where you are feeling stuck, not getting the results you want, or having the type of impact you intended to have. Common topics of conversation include personal or professional relationships, leadership style, life fulfillment, and personal development.
We will design our alliance together with a focus on delivering the results that you want and deserve.
Our confidential conversations are designed to create clarity, and uncover your best path forward.
I am available by telephone or video call.
I am available for individual appointments Monday through Thursday from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM central, Limited Saturday appointments may also be available.
A free, no-obligation, no pressure consultation is available. During your 20 minute consultation call you will have an opportunity to discuss what your primary area of focus is, and what you can expect from our coaching relationship. With your permission, I will send a follow- up communication about one week later to check-in and see if you are interested in moving forward.
A six-session coaching package is recommended, and currently available for $750. Each session is scheduled for 45 minutes. Scheduling sessions every other week or twice a month will support the insight and momentum gained in each coaching session.
Single 45 minute sessions may also be booked at the cost of $150 per session.
Cancellations less than 24 hours in advance are billed at 50% of the session fee.
Your paid coaching fees entitle you to full 45 minute Co-Active coaching sessions via telephone or video conference. These sessions are 100% focused on transformative conversations designed to support you in creating a fulfilling life, aligned with what you value most.
The coaching relationship is not therapy. Sessions focus on what is going on in your life now, and how you want to move forward. Your primary focus, your vision for the future, your goals, and the habits, & commitments that support or hold you back can all be explored.
Homework in between sessions may be assigned and is designed to accelerate transformation and may include specific actions or inquiries (reflections on a topic).
