coaching
By creating a safe, confidential space, and asking open-ended questions, life coaching gives permission to the parts of you that already know what you want and what the next right step is. Then coaching supports you in staying true to that knowledge. It’s also powerfully combines nurturing support with externalized responsibility.
I did my training in 2007 and have since helped people with career changes, time management, new babies, new jobs, books that needed writing, homework that was behind schedule, and a number of creative dreams that wanted to be realized.
It works best if we both feel awesome about it, so the first step is to see how we feel. The first call is free and I can help you figure out whether coaching is the right modality for you, and whether I’m the right coach for you. You can suggest a good time by emailing

De-cluttering & re-decorating
I love providing hands-on support around house decorating and/or decluttering. It's one of my favorite things to do.
Other forms of clutter we can streamline on the phone, like social clutter and time clutter.
Conquering subtle addictions
Addictions are ways of dealing with pain, so if they are to be given up, a better coping and living strategy is needed. Coaching doesn't replace regular addiction treatment, but I'm interested in some of the subtler ways that people stay in patterns, like putting too much emphasis on romantic relationships, being vague around money to the point of constant anxiety, workaholism, self-sabotage
Accepting Your Sexuality
Understanding what you want
Accepting your desires
Asking for what you want
How big a deal to make out of it (is it something you do in the bedroom or is it an identity?)
Sexuality in flux (when identity changes)
I did my Masters Degree in Health Communication around stigma and sexual minority health, focusing on people who are kinky, but drawing on a wide range of resources from all different sexualities.
Healing Relationships
This isn’t my specialty, but it frequently comes up, and I we might explore it or I’ll refer you to a good couples or family coach or other modality.
Self-expression & Finding Your Power
autobiography
conquering shame
Finding your truth, your desire, your voice, your vision
tapping into intuition
Growing up 101
getting the most out of school (I wish I had had a coach while I was in college!)
discovering what you want
being true to what you want
differentiating from your parents
learning good habits
