Two Approaches. Limitless Possibilities.

Life coaching is a supportive process in which I walk alongside you and help you to gain clarity about what you want for your life and then  make a specific and achievable plan to get there. Life coaching is not counseling and life coaching is not consultation. That is, I do not bring advise or directives to our work. You can expect me to bring a listening ear, many questions, and a framework for accountability as you get clear on your goals and the steps to make it happen. 

My practice as a life coach is grounded by my belief that you are complete and already have within you everything you need to realize what you want and deserve from life. I believe you are responsible for your own results - but that with my help, you can and will get farther faster. 

I coach according to the ethics of the International Coaching Federation. Our work together is completely confidential and you are always in control of it. Simply put - I am here for you!

Generally, coaching is completed via telephone or an online/virtual session. An introductory, or sample, session is always offered free of charge. This will provide us both an opportunity to get to know each other a bit better and set some expectations for what our continued work together would look like. Clients who wish to engage beyond the intro session will be asked to sign an agreement that lays out our accountability to each other. I generally recommend that clients consider committing to at least 2 months of work together, with sessions occurring weekly or bi-weekly. I offer a la carte and packaged pricing options for sessions and am happy to discuss a sliding scale with those for whom cost is a barrier. 

The enneagram is a tool for compassion - compassion for self (perhaps first) and compassion for others. The enneagram begins by offering 9 distinct personality "types" - each with unique gifts and each with habitual ego patterns that, contrary to intention, prevent the experience of a full and complete self and connection to others. 

Unlike many other personality sorters, the work of the enneagram runs much deeper and wider than identification of your type. Rather, identifying your type unlocks the door to a world of possibilities to build a greater sense of awareness about:

• your unique gifts and how to offer them to the world.
• patterns that do not serve you well in certain situations and relationships.
• the choices you can make to drive different outcomes. 

Intentional and sustained work with the enneagram will unlock more effective relationships and experiences at home and work. For those who are inclined, the enneagram is a powerful tool for connecting mind, body, and heart on a spiritual path toward the experience of full and complete connection with self, others, and the world.

My work with the enneagram is grounded in what is called the Narrative Tradition. While there are many online tests you can take and books to read to assist you in determining your type, the most powerful way to discover and explore your type is in the company of others who are also on the journey. My work with clients on the enneagram  generally begins in a community of practice - with introductory and deeper dive cohort programs announced seasonally here on the website. 

If a structured program is not currently scheduled and you are ready to get to work, please feel free to be in touch about private enneagram coaching sessions - through which we can work together to identify your type and/or explore ways to more fully incorporate an awareness of your type into your life.
