Are you getting what you want out of life? Are you feeling lost in the shuffle? Let me help you discover your personal life path and life balance.
Sometimes, when we are in distress, we feel better after a talk with a good friend or relative. However, for deeper personal life situations, often this relief is temporary and falls way short of what is needed to live life to the fullest. Talking with a trained listener can help alleviate distress on a more permanent basis. I am a life coach, trained to listen and interact with you in a way that will help get to the root of your life concerns, and I can help you learn ways to achieve your life goals.
As a certified life coach, grounded in Transpersonal Psychology, I can help get beyond the mask you may present to the world in order to be liked or accepted. You can learn how to interact from both your head and your heart in order to make healthier decisions about the directions needed to fulfill your dreams. You will learn to interact from a deeper place. You will discover that we are constantly changing, ever-evolving individuals, where change is part of our nature. This approach deals with the whole person (physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual), to enable you to support yourself in entirety on your journey to achieving life’s goals.
As a coach I can help you look at the various goals you see for yourself, and the many desires that add to that equation. I will help you organize and prioritize them in a way that allows you to work toward, and ultimately achieve them. We all have obstacles that get in our way in achieving these goals.
As your coach, I can help develop strategies that can assist in overcoming these roadblocks encountered along the way.
Many times our own limiting beliefs about ourselves get in the way of success and happiness. I can help by assisting you in developing tools that will aid in identifying and eliminating these beliefs that no longer serve you.
Often, when we want something, we keep it a secret. We don't tell anyone, even those who can help us. Part of achieving our goals is being accountable, not only to ourselves and our dreams, but to another person in our life who is important to us. If you have that person, that’s great. If not, I can be that person until you find that important person in your own life.
One of the things that is absolutely necessary to get from Point A (I want) to Point Z (I have achieved), is getting out of our comfort zone. What we often try to do is go directly from A to Z in the first five minutes. This absolutely does not work. As a coach, I can help explore the tools that will allow you to step out of, and expand your comfort zones so they will stay expanded and not just snap right back to the beginning. If we get to Point Z, we want to be able to stay there, or move forward again, not end up back at Point A. Falling back is because we do not do the work in-between. I can help you do the work in-between.
My background in Transpersonal Psychology, through counseling, therapy, teaching and mentoring, gives me the experience to facilitate and allow space for individual growth and change; to empower clients to attain their full potential as they see fit. With the addition of a coaching paradigm to decades of experience in Transpersonal Therapy, I feel I can definitely support and encourage you to achieve your goals and dreams.
A first step in achieving these goals is discovering what they are. Through our coaching journey you will be able to delineate those that are important to you and eliminate those that are not your priority at this time.
I will help you take the steps in looking at the issues that keeps you from achieving success, and beginning the process of working toward that end.
Subsequently, the coaching process allows you to make a plan, develop strategies, and implement a program that will allow transformations that develop the picture you want to see, and the accountability to yourself and your desires.
My job as a certified coach is to ask you the right questions. Your job is to do the inner searching to develop the right answers for you. Together we will both do our part to create your life in the image you want. This will enable you to step out of your comfort zone and enter the world of your dreams.
