What is coaching?

Coaching is an on-going partnership that supports people in moving forward more quickly and easily than if they were working on their own. The coach assists clients in transforming their lives by helping them determine their core values, make choices that are in alignment with those core values, and then act on those choices in order to create a life that supports and honors who they are.

I offer several different Coaching Services, depending on your needs.

How do I know if this is a good time for me to work with a coach?

There are many factors that influence the degree of success one experiences from coaching. If you'd like to know more, take a short quiz 'Is this the right time for me to work with a coach?" that identifies these factors.

Why does coaching work?

Coaching works because clients gets the support they need to make the changes they want.

Some reasons for this are:
  1. The coach has a single job: Help the client get what they want.
  2. Meetings happen regularly rather than only when a problem comes up.
  3. Clear agreements about what will be accomplished between meetings
  4. Both business and personal goals are included to ensure balance and fulfillment.
  5. Goals set are in alignment with higher values. Only goals that have meaning are included in the process
  6. We get to the core of what is happening as opposed to working on symptomatic behaviors.

Why do people hire a coach?

People hire a coach to make a change, reach a goal, solve a problem, or take advantage of an opportunity.

What's the difference between a coach and a consultant?

There is some crossover between what a coach and a consultant provide, but the basic difference is that most consultants are experts at information, systems and business analysis. A well-trained coach is an expert in people and life/success dynamics. Consultants are brought in to analyze a situation, make recommendations, install something and/or to solve a problem. A coach is brought in to help reach business targets and/or provide support to individuals within a company.

How do I find the right coach?

When you talk with prospective coaches, share your goals, dilemma or opportunity and ask them to describe the approach they would use in coaching you. If you are still unsure, schedule a sample coaching session. Base your decision on a combination of the coach's qualifications: education, experience, style, approach and demeanor.

What is Human Design System?

Human Design is a cutting-edge assessment tool that shows you your unique way of operating in the world, your special gifts and talents, where you are naturally skilled and where you have opportunities for growth and development.

Human Design is a synthesis of Eastern and Western Astrology, the Chinese I Ching, The Jewish Kabbalah, the Hindu Chakra System and Quantum Physics. Your chart is calculated using your birth date, time and place. It is a fascinating analysis that can be used to help make even better decisions as you move forward.

What is Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)?

Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) is a technique that is based on new discoveries regarding the connection between your body's subtle energies, your emotions, and your health. It works with the same energy meridians used in acupuncture - although we use tapping to move energy, rather than needles.  EFT has been shown to have a siginficant impact on a broad range of emotional, health and performance issues.

In coaching we can use this to move past stumbling blocks that are getting in your way.
