Life is what you make it—or design it to be. Through coaching, I partner with you to create the life you desire to live. I facilitate this process with compassion, empathy, and humor.
Co-active coaching is a method developed by CTI, The Coaches Training Institute, one of the leading institutions of its kind. 'Co-active' means you and I partner together as a team to uncover your creative and innate resources that build a pathway to a more fulfilling life. Coaching focuses on how you want to feel now and in the future, creating accountability for your next steps toward a more fulfilling life. Coaching creates balance, by helping you shift perspectives and gain back your power over situations where you may feel lacking or stuck.
The coaching relationship is more powerful than either the coach or the client. It is a collaborative space that challenges, motivates, encourages and sometimes demands that the client be powerful.
The coach grants the relationship power, and the focus of the relationship is the client. The client grants the relationship power and is empowered by the relationship. There are three main steps in creating the coaching relationship:
- Creating a safe and courageous space
- Designing the alliance
- Evoking transformation
Working with a coach is profoundly different from working with a consultant, mentor or therapist. I do not provide counseling, therapy, advice or answers. Clients are in charge of finding and creating your own breakthroughs, with that said I will be a dedicated partner, providing the support and tools on your journey of growth and success.
