If that sneaky voice in your head is telling you to handle it all on your own, hush those lies! We are not meant to go through life alone! My goal is to normalize therapy by creating a safe, judgement-free environment.
Have you been feeling off? Like something is missing? Wanting more for yourself? You wouldn't be here if you weren't ready for change, and I'd be honored to walk with you as you start the process! It can feel scary & overwhelming, yet therapy is one of the greatest gifts we can give ourselves. It takes courage to reach out and ask for help. Doing so does not make you weak, but shows your strength.

The focus of my work, both as a psychotherapist and coach, has been on identifying and encouraging people's strengths in their work and relationships. The positive psychology movement today is much in vogue but I have been practicing this model my entire career. Focusing on strengths rather than pathology has been extremely effective in my work with adults, adolescents, and couples.

Life Coaching Therapists

What can I expect from life coaching?

Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.

Can a life coach help treat anxiety?

Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.

Can life coaching be done online?

Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.

How long does life coaching last?

Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
