About Me
I am a professional Life & Leadership Coach certified by the International Coach Federation (ICF) at the PCC level. In addition to my Integral Coaching training through New Ventures West, I also bring to coaching a Masters in Clinical Psychology, as well as training in Non-Violent Communication, Social Justice, Internal Family Systems, Hospice and Grief work, deep studies in Polyvagal Theory and Western Neuroscience, Eastern Philosophy, Trauma Awareness, and more than a decade of teaching yoga and mindfulness (500 E-RYT). As a professional writer, I’ve also written on many of these topics.
I have extensive experience working with large corporations, and have taught mindfulness & movement classes and/or coaching seminars at business such as Twitter, Genentech, Amazon, Asana, Kaiser Permanente, Second Genome, Oculus, Goodreads, and Salesforce. I also bring to coaching many years of work in creative industries, including publishing, theater, program development, and higher education.
HOW I WORK
In our sessions, I will create a safe and supportive space for you to investigate deeply the blocks and questions that are arising in your life. I will offer inquiries and practices to help you understand the landscape of your mind and actions more deeply, and to open into possibilities in every area of your life. My many years of training in mindfulness practice allows me to be completely present with whatever is coming up for you, and consistently guide us on a path to your highest potential.
I support people with both Life Coaching and Leadership Coaching.
Life Coaching
You’re looking for support moving through a life transition, making decisions about your future, assessing or improving current relationships, or still processing a past event or situation that keeps coming up in your present patterns. You want to evolve and grow and live with more integrity, but you need some help to get you there. I can help you find your center, make decisions, communicate better, and grow into your most authentic life.
Leadership Coaching
You are an individual or organization that needs support with growth in leadership, communication, and relational skills. Great leadership means moving from a space of confidence, creativity, connection, and compassion. I help individuals and organizations get clear on their into purpose, and navigate challenging dynamics that arise on the journey. With the work we do together, you (or those in your organization) will learn to embrace change and lead with integrity, focus, and intention.
You may be looking for support across both planes! I work in an integral way, so nothing is left out.
PACKAGES
For individuals, I offer packages of 5 or 10 (1-hour) sessions. For new clients, I recommend the 10-session package because it gives us the time needed to do the real work, and it’s also the best economical value. I also offer single Breakthrough Sessions for those who are looking for short-term, specific problem-solving support.
Rates for organizations vary, and coaching curriculum can be created to specifically meet the needs of your organization, so please reach out directly to discuss.
Limited sliding scale slots available for those in financial need; please inquire.
