How I Coach Clients

Every professional coach has their own style. My coaching style supports your whole person, including all the knowledge your head, your heart and your body has to offer. This honoring of ALL of you allows you to use your body/mind wisdom to better know yourself and what’s really important to you. It helps you in making the best decisions towards finding solutions for your challenges and in creating a meaningful and fulfilling life.

GET TO KNOW YOURSELF, ACCEPT YOURSELF,

BE AMUSED BY YOURSELF, NURTURE YOURSELF

AND TAKE ENERGIZING STEPS TOWARD YOUR GOALS

Identify issues, challenges or potentials that are barriers to you creating the life you really want and having the kind of relationships you really want.

Get clear on what it is that you really want and differentiate that from “how it should be”, “what I should do” or “how I should feel”.

Reconnect with your body and your feelings and learn how to identify exactly what it is you are feeling. Emotional intelligence is thought to be one of the most valuable skills and predictors of success in the workplace and in relationships.

Identify how you get off track from feeling centered when life’s challenges come your way and learn ways to shift back into mindful awareness, clarity, and peace of mind.

Re-examine your assumptions and beliefs. In the absence of facts, our mind keeps busy making things up. These are our “stories”. We often come to believe what we make up to be the unarguable truth. Making your “stories” conscious helps to open up to new ways of thinking with more infinite possibilities.

“Play” with your issues in a way that creates vitality and wonder and creative solutions. By moving and playing with an issue that often feels very serious, we open our minds to creative solutions that often can’t be discovered in the same serious state that the problem was conceived. Moving your body to your inner experience can help uncover blocks that are difficult to tap into simply through talking and thinking about the problem in the same old way.

Take clear, measurable and pleasurable action steps towards your goal. Taking action towards your goals is more powerful than all the insight and good intentions in the world.

Our Relationship is Confidential. What we talk about or even the fact that you have hired me as your coach is all held absolutely confidentially on my part. You, of course, are free to share any or all parts of our work together with anyone you choose.

The key to a successful outcome in coaching is the client’s willingness and openness to learn and grow. As your coach, I will support you in this and offer plenty of opportunities for you to do so.
