Individual Coaching

Discover More Options and Possibilities

Through in-person or virtual dialogue, we discuss what you care about, what you want to have happen, and how you want to get there. You know yourself best and I’m here to invite greater discovery, more acceptance, and more options. I will be your thought partner on the journey, supporting you as you explore all that is possible by offering ideas and suggestions. From these options, you will create your own action plan, choosing your path forward. I will be your accountability partner as you work through your action plan, accompanying you through the process of achieving your own goals.

Planning and Preparation

Design Collaborative Opportunities for Groups

We work and live with other people; in teams, workgroups, units, departments, agencies, organizations, and communities. Together, with any stakeholders, in-person or virtually, I support a planning group to develop an action plan based on your collective values, resources, and vision. We can design meetings, mediations, and trainings; there can be as few as two people to as many as 300+ people. Your goals guide what we co-create and I contribute curriculum ideas, meeting activities, group dynamic considerations, and ways to memorialize your work.

Facilitation and Mediation

Be Guided Through Effective Group Process

I offer facilitation or mediation to put your planning and preparation into action. You and your team can focus on content, and bringing your expertise, opinions, and ideas to a meeting while I focus on process and facilitating the group through activities to accomplish your goals. As a neutral third party, I offer an objective perspective, strategies to be with what is happening, and ideas to move forward. I create predictable, practical, and caring opportunities for everyone to do and be their best.

Training

Learn On-the-Job Skillsets and Mindsets

I deliver training when your group is ready to learn skillsets and mindsets to achieve their goals. In training, people learn why and how to do a skill. I custom design trainings to meet your group's needs, based on my expertise and incorporating the expertise of your group. They include interactive exercises, brief lectures, action plans, and “real play”. Topics include communication, conflict-resolution, apologies and forgiveness, trauma stewardship, peer support, facilitation, mediation, and leadership.
