Coaching

Live with Impact™

What is coaching?

Coaching is ideal for someone who’s functioning well overall but either feels stuck in some aspect of their life and/or is at a crossroads and ready for change.

Let’s face it, we all get stuck sometime and need help getting out of our own way. Whether the hole is deep or shallow, learning how to drop the shovel and get unstuck is a valuable skill. Having both the therapy and coaching lenses gives me the expertise and skill set with which to approach and collaborate with clients.

As a Gestalt-certified coach, I work with you to become aware of your current situation. Before we can move forward, we have to know where you are. Once you have a better understanding of what’s keeping you stuck and/or holding you back, we can talk about how to move forward in a different way.

Coaching isn’t therapy. Coaching does not diagnose or treat mental illness, and it is primarily future focused. I can help you determine if you’re better served by coaching or therapy.

Situations Where Coaching Can Be Beneficial

There are others, but these examples will give you an idea of when when coaching can help.

When your thinking is working against you instead of for you:

The person who just got promoted but feels “in over their head” and an imposter
Mid-career person who feels like they’ve lost their mojo
When you want to start a new venture (business, social, habit, doesn’t matter what)

When you’re in the midst of or embarking on change:

New mom who has returned to work and is trying to figure out how to balance work and life
Divorcee who’s ready to start dating again
Early career and life transitions (when we need to learn how to get out of our own way)

When you want to make changes and need help getting in the right mindset:

The person who wants to learn how to communicate more effectively
The person who wants to start marketing their practice more aggressively but is scared of rejection
The person who wants to do anything but is scared of failing

How does coaching work?

Coaching generates change by creating awareness and then offering a different way of being and doing. A coach asks thought-provoking questions, helps you define your goals, and guides you on how to best achieve them. Read more

Is coaching right for me?

Coaching might be right for you if…

You are motivated
You are ready to change
You want feedback, tools, and accountability

What can I expect?

In our first coaching session, we’ll discuss your goals for coaching. We may have broad goals for the coaching engagement like how to improve sales numbers and smaller individual session goals to work on small shifts in thinking or behaving, such as paying attention to your mindset, how you’re physically presenting yourself, what your body language says, etc. We’ll assess as we go along, ensuring you’re moving toward your achievements.

The Difference Between Coaching & Therapy

As I’ve mentioned, I recently became a Gestalt-certified coach. One of the questions I get most often is what’s the difference between coaching and therapy. Therapy helps when there’s something preventing you from functioning well. There may be a mental illness, like major depression or OCD, trauma or loss. Sometimes you need to dive into…

Why I’m a Coach

Talk about not knowing where life is going to take you … I recently became a Gestalt-certified coach. Don’t worry, though, I’m not abandoning my therapy practice. I’m adding to it. I was inspired to become a coach after having my own transformational experience working with an executive coach on Martha’s Vineyard several years ago….
