Life Coaching

Are You Ready to Make a Change?
The relationship between a coach and client is co-creative, both having an active role in the process. Your coach is trained to use communication skills to support you as a detached thinking partner. We will work together to help you identify and engage in actions that will help you reach your goals and experience the joy of being who you were created to be and doing what you were created to do. My experience spans 25 years as a VP of Sales and Marketing and Professional Life Coach. As an additional benefit, I am also a licensed medical practitioner who has the knowledge and experience to provide integral psychotherapeutic treatment if indicated as part of your experience.

Who hires a coach and why?
People hire a coach because:

  • They want more.
  • They want to grow.
  • They want it easier.

Benefits of hiring a coach?

  • You start taking more effective and focused actions immediately.
  • You stop putting up with petty annoyances.
  • You create momentum so it's easier to get results.
  • You set better goals that are based on what you really want.
  • You have more time and energy.

Why does coaching work?
Coaching works for several reasons:

  • Synergy between the coach and client creates momentum and enthusiasm.
  • Better goals are set -- ones that naturally motivate the client.
  • The client develops new skills, which lead to greater success.
  • Coaching provides a structure of support. Left to our own devices, we start out with the best intentions and then, we hit a snag and it can derail us completely or cause a long delay. A coach can help you quickly bust through snags so that more is accomplished with less struggle and less effort.
  • Objectivity. Your coach is an objective, positive supporter. Not everyone is lucky enough to have such a friend or colleague to provide this. If you’ve been doing it solo, try seeing how much more you can accomplish with a coach!

Why is coaching becoming so popular?

  • People are tired of doing what they "should" do and are ready to do something special and meaningful for the rest of their lives. Problem is, many can't see it, or if they can, they can't see a way to reorient their life around it. A coach can help them do both.
  • People are realizing how simple it can be to accomplish something that several years ago might have felt out of reach or like a pipedream. A coach is not a miracle worker (well, they are, sometimes) but a coach does have a large tool kit to help the Big Idea become a Reality. Fortunately, people now have time and resources to invest in themselves in this kind of growth.
