Frequently Asked Questions

A Professional Life Coach is a trusted mentor who can help you identify and uncover what keeps you from reaching your fullest potential. It is a one-on-one relationship that provides a supportive and non-judgmental space to help you create what you want for yourself. You can find a Life Coach to help you strategize and acquire the tools you need to achieve your goals. It consists of steps to help you identify and reframe your thoughts and attitudes, as well as develop new insights and approaches. It can also help you break negative habits, acquire new awarenesses, and take action to achieve your maximum potential!

As a Transformational Life Coach my overarching focus is on facilitating truly holistic and transformational shifts that allow you to lead your very best life. While any topic may be worth pursuing at a given time, if your primary coaching goals focus on just one or two domains (for instance, work, or finances, or family), I would be happy to give you a referral to other great professionals. However, if your primary goal for coaching is to live, communicate, and connect from a place of deep meaning and with unapologetic authenticity, then Transformational Life Coaching can be a tremendous support.

People from all walks of life work with professional Coaches to help attain their goals. Life Coaches work with people in all areas including personal development, relationships, career, finance, health, and more. Working with a personal Coach is not limited to any type of person or type of issue; rather, it is best suited for those who are ready to take initiative in their own life. People who work with a Life Coach are committed to a more fulfilled life, and are willing to do the work needed to get there.

The results vary depending on what brings you to a Life Coach, what your goals are, and how much work you’re ready to commit. If you get a Life Coach to help you out professionally, life coaching may help you make your current job more gratifying, gain better focus on managing your work, and market yourself more effectively. If your reasons are personal, you can find a life coach to help you improve your relationships, resolve ongoing negative behaviors, improve your overall wellbeing, and develop a more fulfilling way of being in the world. With life coaching you can live a more balanced and enhanced life, and make your dreams come true!

Life coaching can take you above and beyond your own personal limitations. More often than not, people try to achieve their greatest potential without even realizing what stands in their way. A personal Coach can offer an unbiased and objective perspective, and can help you recognize your patterns and habits. Most people experience that they are more efficient when working with a Professional Life Coach and that this provides the opportunity for them to better realize their potential. Life coaching supports making your dreams attainable and will give you encouragement along the way.

While the life coaching I provide may be therapeutic, it is not therapy. Coaching is distinct from traditional therapy because it is not designed to address psychological issues. While emotions may arise, the primary focus of life coaching is to help you identify your goals, and achieve them, by developing constructive mindsets, habits and skills. There is little exploration of, or emphasis placed on, the past within coaching. Instead, we focus on creating what you want now and for your future.

Currently all sessions are remote. Most clients choose to meet via Zoom, although some prefer to connect by phone.

I require a 24-hour notice to cancel all sessions. Please be sure to contact me if you will not be able to make your scheduled appointment in order to avoid being charged for the session.

To experience the effectiveness of individual life coaching, and garner the best results, I suggest clients make an initial commitment to a full five-month program.

To the full extent provided by law, yes! What we discuss will be held in strict confidence and not shared with others. The sole exception to this is that coaching discussions are not privileged for legal purposes. The privilege of confidentiality that exists for the clergy, therapists, and attorneys is not granted to coaching professionals. So, while I would need to respond to any legally executed request for information, otherwise life coaching is an entirely confidential process, and your personal information will always be protected.

Each session is tailored to the client and will vary based on individual needs. In the beginning, we will discuss what you are committed to accomplishing through our work together and we will begin to create a plan to achieve your goals. Periodically, I will offer assignments to help direct and deepen your progress. We will work together to acknowledge obstacles, explore alternate perspectives, develop new strategies, and celebrate successes. With the conclusion of each session, we will revisit your goals and evaluate the next steps that are needed to achieve these results.
