It provides a structured environment for growth and enables you to unlock your full potential in a way that other methods may not.
Does coaching work? Yes, coaching is an evidence-based practice that has proven to be highly effective. Clients often report significant improvements in their personal and professional lives, including better goal clarity, increased motivation, and enhanced performance. The Harvard Business Review has published several articles and studies that highlight the effectiveness of coaching over traditional training, particularly in the context of long-term behavioral change and practical application of skills.
How do I know if coaching is right for me? Coaching is suitable for anyone looking to make positive changes in their life, achieve specific goals, or gain clarity and direction. I offer a complimentary discovery session to discuss your needs and see if coaching is a good fit for you.
What will the process look like? The coaching process begins with an initial consultation to understand your needs and goals. This is followed by regular sessions, during which we work on your objectives with actionable steps and continuous support throughout the program.

How and where do coaching sessions happen? Coaching sessions are primarily conducted by phone or virtually by Zoom; in-person sessions may be available on request.

What if I miss a session? I understand that life happens. If you need to reschedule, please let me know at least 24 hours in advance. I will do my best to accommodate you and find a suitable time for a makeup session.
How is coaching different from counseling or mentoring? Coaching is a future-focused journey that empowers you to take control of your personal and professional development.
