About Coaching

What I do as a coach…

As a coach, I partner with clients of all ages and backgrounds, working on a variety of challenges and thorny issues. Whether it's someone who wants to improve their health and feel better in everyday life, or someone facing a loss and significant life transition, I support my clients in building skills, strengths, and resilience. I work with individuals, couples, and small groups on challenges such as navigating a divorce, entering an empty nest phase, or living with a family member with addiction issues. It may be resolving conflict in a family, being squeezed by caregiving, living with chronic illness, or approaching retirement.

Coaching is compatible and complementary with therapy, but it takes a different approach. We work toward the future with a vision of your best self, thriving in ease, clarity, and confidence.

What coaching can do for you…

Coaching can provide a brave, confidential space to work through mental, physical, or emotional challenges. Grow support and accountability in pursuing goals of all kinds:

  • Build a toolbox of strategies that help regulate thoughts, feelings, and behaviors

  • Discover values, strengths, and motivations for change.

  • Enhance self-awareness and self-efficacy

  • Help to shift perspectives and reframe challenges

  • Assist in navigating life transitions and losses

  • Build and explore supportive resources, connections, and community

  • Empower you to discover purpose, fulfillment, and increased quality of life

  • Build self-care to improve stress resilience, sleep, nutrition, physical activity, and creativity

“Each person holds so much power within themselves that needs to be let out. Sometimes they just need a little nudge, a little direction, a little support, a little coaching, and the greatest things can happen.

— Pete Carroll
