How I work as your coach.

Imagine yourself at a playground, sitting on a swing. Think of the amount of energy it takes to begin swinging--the initial push off, legs out-stretched and then pulling them in as hard as you can. For the first few moments, you expend a lot of energy fighting inertia. But in the end, it is worth it. You have a whole new view, sense of freedom, and an exhilarating feeling. It can seem like flying!

The change process is often like swinging, difficult in the beginning but so rewarding in the end. Coaching facilitates change. The coach’s role is like having a friend push you on a swing. The coach helps the client overcome the initial inertia and works to motivate continual change.

As your coach, I am a caring, nurturing partner. I provide inspiration and energy for change. I support clients through exploration and action. I listen, encourage and ask thought provoking questions. I provide a safe space for a client to find more play and fulfillment in their own life. We work together to reveal possibilities within themselves and their lives. Through this process, the client is increasingly able to connect with what they really want.
