working with me
You've already taken a courageous step on your journey. Whether this is your first-time exploring working with a coach or your first time seeking outside support, you are brave for taking this step. Sharing parts of yourself that maybe only you or a few others know about with a complete stranger can feel frightening. When we are afraid, we know we are about to do something really brave.
Start by asking yourself these questions:
Do I want to have a more loving and fulfilling relationship with myself?
Do I want to choose a life and relationships that are meaningful and enriching?
If you answered yes to both of those, then self-love and relationship coaching is for YOU.
Coaching asks you to be vulnerable and a little uncomfortable which is why I work to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can freely share and just be.
It’s important to note that each client that I work with is different. You have different experiences and different ways of being-in-the-world, so our work together will look different than what I do with my other clients. I don’t use a cookie cutter coaching style with each client, that would be unfair and discount the entirety of your being and existence. Instead, I use a structured method as my foundation and finetune the details to cater our work to your needs.
In our work together, we will identify areas in your life that are creating blockages. These are usually issues that contribute to you feeling “stuck.” Next, we will explore and reflect on those blockages: what has contributed to them, what you have tried before, and bringing awareness to any patterns or themes that arise. Finally, we will create action plans to help get you unstuck. These can consist of, but are not limited to, tools, exercises, reframing and challenging thoughts.
Though I have simplified my coaching method, this isn’t any easy fix-it solution. Humans are complex beings, and we can’t expect long-term change with short-term solutions. When someone has had months, years, maybe decades, of operating in ways that may no longer serve them, it will take some time and lots of compassion, to rewire our nervous system to new ways of being.
