  • What is Parent Coaching?
    Parent Coaching is a professional relationship that provides support and guidance to enable you to be the most effective parent for you and your family. I work with you to feel less stressed about parenting teens and become more relatable and supportive so your teen sees you as a source of support instead of someone they have to hide their innermost thoughts from.
  • What is the difference between Parent Coaching and Therapy?
    Parent Coaching focuses on helping you develop the skills to become the parent you desire to be, while therapy focuses on working through specific issues in the family dynamic that may be causing mental health issues such as anxiety or depression.
  • What’s the difference between marriage counseling and relationship coaching?
    Counseling focuses more on working to overcome issues within the relationship from the past, and to become less impacted from those issues to move forward to a healthier relationship. Coaching focuses on the goal of maintenance and improvement.. Couples and individuals will be able to develop new skills to help them enjoy fulfilling relationships.
  • Are sessions done virtually or in person?
    All sessions are done virtually
  • What if my partner isn’t interested in participating.
    Ideally, you may find the value in both of you in your partner’s participation, but sometimes it’s difficult for individuals to be receptive to coaching when they see it as something to be “fixed.”. But if you are ready to begin coaching, you should consider beginning the coaching on your own, and your partner may be inspired to join after recognizing your positive results.
  • How do I know which coaching package I should select?
    If you and your partner are seeking to strengthen your relationship, it is ideal to sign up for the couples package. Whether you are single or in a relationship, if you recognize that you can benefit from adding new tools to your toolbox to effectively communicate through challenging situations, then the individual package is for you. You will be able to improve your interactions with others.
  • What should we expect in the first session?
    During the initial session, we will spend time getting an understanding of the coach and client relationship. You will be able to get to know me, and I will learn about you and the goals of your relationship. We will be able to begin new skills in the initial session.
  • What is Mindset Coaching?
    Mindset Coaching helps you bridge the gap from where you are now to where you desire to be. Instead of being conflicted about where you are, Mindset Coaching enables you to gain clarity and insight on what you can do to achieve your goals.
  • Why do people work with a Mindset Coach?
    People often desire to work with a mindset coach when they are not getting the results they want in life. Working with a mindset coach provides you the opportunity to review your previous efforts, and to develop a new plan to get the desirable results. I also help you discover your hindering thoughts, learn how to reframe it to something more productive that enables you to unlock your inhibitions to feel more confident about your ability to do what you need to do.
  • Will Mindset Coaching work for me?
    Mindset Coaching will work for you if you are receptive to the process, honest about your concerns and desires, and you are committed to work required of you.
