You deserve to be living your best life.
Maybe you want to be spending more time with your kids. Maybe you’re working a job that leaves you with no energy at the end of the day. Maybe you’ve had a personal goal for two years and just can’t seem to make any headway on it.
Whatever it is, you know that something feels like it’s missing, and you’re not sure what to do about that.
That’s where coaching can help.
Life coaching is a collaborative process that can help you achieve your personal and professional goals.
Through one-on-one coaching, you will:
Get clear on your values and life goals,
Make a plan to get from where you are to where you want to be,
Start taking steps to live the life you want.
Coaching helps you through a process of self discovery by using active listening skills, asking empowering questions, expanding your thought processes to remove obstacles, and helping you design action steps to live your best life.
Why hire a coach?
People hire coaches for all sorts of reasons:
You’re going through a life transition: a new child, a new relationship, a new school, a new job, a new career
You want to feel more fulfilled
You want your life to reflect what is important to you, not what you feel you are “supposed” to be doing
You’re struggling to reach a personal or professional goal you have set and need some support and accountability
You’re searching for more balance in your life
You feel satisfied with your life and want to figure out how to maintain that feeling
But isn’t coaching like therapy?
Coaching is not therapy.
Where a counselor or therapist may seek to discover issues in someone’s past that are blocking them from success, coaching begins in the present and is future oriented.
Many individuals may choose to work with both a therapist and coach - the therapist to talk about past experiences, and the coach to plan for the future.

What is a coaching session like?
At its core, coaching is about YOU.
We’ll start with a brief check-in about how things are going. After that, you’ll be asked “What would you like coaching around today?”
Sometimes you might want coaching around your explicit goals, and other times you may need space to process other happenings in your life. Whatever the conversation, you are the driver. The coach will be there to ask questions, reflect back to you things that seem important or body language you might not realize you are exhibiting, or bring up connections to past sessions. On occasion the coach may offer a resource to support your learning and growth.
At the end of the session, you will reflect together on key take aways and set any accountability goals.
If you choose to, you can ask to receive a summary of the conversation emailed to you following the session.
How much does coaching cost?
We believe that coaching should be available to everyone.
You will receive a free initial conversation to discuss why you are interested in coaching and learn morning about our process.
After that, our standard fee is $1000 for a 6 session package (outlined below).
That said, we don’t want cost to be a barrier for anyone. If you are interested in coaching but $1000 is cost-prohibitive, please reach out to us to discuss a fee scale that will work for you.
