WHAT IS COACHING?

Coaching helps you move, with confidence, from where you are to where you want to be.

Coaching is a process that helps you move forward in the direction you want to go. It’s about assisting you to make effective decisions and take appropriate action. The coaching I do helps you look carefully at who you are and what is really important to you. What you choose to do works best when you align it with what is fundamentally true for you.

Career coaching, whether you want to succeed where you are, advance or change direction, focuses on helping you be clear about what it is you want, and be aware and articulate about what you have to offer to others. Once you are aware and clear, the strategy and tactics you choose become much more effective.

As your coach, I draw upon many years of experience and will share processes that have worked for me and for many clients, but you are the expert about your situation. I will not tell you what you should do. I will, however, do my very best to help you determine what is best for you and then act on it.

If you can accomplish everything you want on your own, you probably don’t need a coach. If, however, things are not quite the way you want them to be, you may benefit from on-going interactions with a professional who can help you move forward from wherever you may be stuck. You don’t have to be in crisis to benefit from working with a coach. It’s like looking after your car, getting preventive maintenance before it breaks down. Consider coaching to be preventive maintenance for your life.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

Your coaching has turned out to be the answer to my prayers, and more. Your ability to hear me and even read my words ‘between the lines’ combined with your genuine care and your outstanding ability to ask powerful, open ended, challenging questions, is extremely valuable to me. When I hear your questions, I have to stop and re-evaluate what I thought I wanted to do with my work or life, and then the “aha” moment arises, when I realize what it is that I really want, from the depth of my truth. Sometimes the process is uncomfortable, when little voices inside my psyche are caught ‘red-handed’ with agendas that have nothing to do with my core Self’s purpose. Your questions are like laser surgery inside my mind, causing me brutally honest recognition of the secondary voices within, and revealing the honest, authentic voice of my essence. I find this process expanding and liberating, and I am growing significantly and noticeably.

We started our work when I thought I wanted to focus on one area of life, unsure where to start and feeling confused. Today I find the focus has shifted to a project that represents one of my oldest life’s dreams. You keep guiding me thanks to the fact that your skills, experience and knowledge extend beyond counseling and coaching, but also in writing, editing and business. I couldn’t think of a better match for a coach, supporter and – I dare say, by now – friend. A scheduled by appointment friend I can count on! Thanks a million, Lee!
