Coaching

I coach because I want my clients to feel free to be who they are and to have what they want in life.In my experience, this work starts with exploring our identity and patterns of connection.Do you struggle with self-doubt, and feeling disconnected or unfulfilled at work or in your personal life? If so, chances are you hold a distorted view of your self. This directly affects how you see and relate with others, and how you move through the world.With a kinder, more truthful view of who you are, relationships will become more fulfilling, and a sense of freedom and empowerment will follow.Let’s deeply explore who you are, and let’s build an authentic and vulnerable relationship together from that place. We’ll use this relational exploration as a launching pad to generate aliveness in all areas of your life.We’ll employ a host of tools to cultivate connection to your inner world, to others, and to your life dreams. We’ll gently and courageously confront what is keeping you from having what you want. We'll take steps forward into uncharted lands. And I promise to be an honest and unconditionally loving presence along the way.I’m certified with the International Coaching Federation, and trained formally as a Wayfinder Life Coach Martha Beck International.I also draw on knowledge from over 10 years of my own inner work, including complex trauma therapy, meditation and master life coaching. Working as a coach gives me a platform to share what I’ve learned with others.

He asks insightful questions that either shift my perspective or guide me to hone in and clarify what I’m thinking. He’s game to follow me wherever I’m needing to go in the session.
