What is Coaching?
A Professional Partnership
Coaching is a structured and supportive relationship where we focus on what matters most to you. You set the direction, and I walk alongside you, offering space, structure, and accountability as you grow and move forward.
Client Centered and Future Focused
Coaching is not therapy, consulting, or mentoring. It is a process that centers on where you are now and where you want to go, helping you create a path that feels meaningful and aligned with your values. I will not give advice but I will help you find your own answers.
Guided Self Discovery
Through deep listening, thoughtful questions, and honest reflection, I help you uncover new insights and take purposeful action. Whether you are making a change, navigating a transition, or working toward a goal, coaching supports your clarity, confidence, and progress.
Ethics, Excellence, and Trust
As a coach-in-training, I follow the highest ethical and professional guidelines of the International Coaching Federation. ICF coaching ensures confidentiality, integrity, and a strong commitment to your personal and professional growth.
ICF coaching is a supportive, client-centered process that helps you gain clarity, build confidence, and take meaningful steps toward your goals. Rooted in deep listening and powerful questions, it’s a space where you’re fully heard, supported, and empowered to find your own answers. As your coach, I’m here to walk alongside you—not to give advice, but to help you discover what truly matters and how to move forward. It’s a trusted partnership built on respect, confidentiality, and genuine care.
Why Coach with me?
Coaching with me means partnering with someone who truly understands the complexity of life’s transitions. I have moved through many of life's big changes (career, identity shifts, motherhood, divorce, retirement, and expat life), while trying my best to maintain self-compassion and a sense of humor whenever possible!
As a retired professor and professional musician-turned-mosaic artist, I bring a unique blend of academic insight, creative thinking, and a compassionate, non-judgmental approach to my coaching sessions. My coaching is focused on client self-discovery, helping you uncover your core values and strengths, while navigating those changes with confidence and self-compassion.
Whether you're redefining your career, adjusting to new life stages, seeking deeper purpose, or just feeling "stuck", I provide the support and tools you need to make empowered, meaningful, and authentic decisions that are unique to your individual needs. Together, we'll explore your path, create clarity, and move you forward toward solutions that are uniquely tailored to your needs and circumstances.​
