  • So glad you’re interested! You can read more about my story, experience, and qualifications here!

  • The processes of coaching and consulting are two distinct approaches used to support individuals or organizations in achieving their goals.

    In essence, coaching primarily focuses on guiding individuals or groups to unlock their potential, develop skills, and achieve personal or professional objectives through asking questions and facilitating self-discovery. Consulting, on the other hand, involves offering expert advice, solutions, and specific recommendations to address clients' challenges or problems based on the consultant's specialized knowledge and experience.

    In my practice, I generally apply a combination of both approaches, leaning more towards coaching with families and individuals, and more towards consulting with organizations and businesses. However, the preferred approach for my sessions is the one that my clients and I make jointly based on our aims for our time together.

  • In short…EVERYONE!

    I am excited to work with parents-to-be on their journeys, parents and caregivers seeking assistance with the children in their lives, and students and educators seeking support within the Early Childhood profession.

    As long as you’re willing to be an active participant, we can work together!

  • During our sessions, you can expect a personalized and supportive environment where your goals, challenges, and aspirations take center stage. Together, we'll explore your unique journey, identify areas for growth, and develop actionable strategies to achieve your desired outcomes. With a focus on empowerment and accountability, each session is tailored to your individual needs, ensuring you feel motivated, inspired, and equipped to make meaningful progress towards your goals.

  • There is no cost for a 15-minute exploratory "Get to Know Me" session. It is FREE. You can book yours here.

    Specific prices are discussed during our “Get to Know Me” call and can be paid via PayPal or credit card prior to our first meeting.

    Presently, I do not accept insurance and my services do not qualify for a billable code that is required by most insurance companies. However, I am happy to provide you with a receipt that can be submitted to your insurance company for any possible reimbursement.

    Your Health Savings Accounts may reimburse Parent Coaching and/or Group Coaching sessions. So, please inquire with your HSA/FSA when scheduling a coaching session.

    Lastly, I realize that the cost of coaching may make it challenging for some to participate. I am committed to helping clients be successful and I am willing to work with you to make it possible. Reduced fees are available on a rolling, but limited basis. Please speak with me during our “Get to Know Me” session or contact me to discuss this in more detail.

  • I’ve learned a lot over my career and a couple of things stand out.

    Firstly, a one-hour session is not enough time to make significant changes. The initial session is learning more about you and your history. Identifying patterns and talking through challenging situations takes more time. Therefore, one session does not leave much time for strategy and planning.

    Secondly, clients who meet consistently see better results. It may be because they have prioritized making time to talk about their concerns or issues. Or, it may just be that making significant changes takes some time to establish.

    However, after we have fostered a relationship and clients have completed a session package, they do have the option to purchase a single- or double-session “check-in”.

  • Presently, I only offer “face-to-face” sessions via video conferencing.

    Meeting each other this way allows me to support a wider population and simultaneously make space for deeper conversations with those clients. Being able to read body language and notice non-verbal cues -even via video chat-, can help us feel connected, heard, and understood.

  • No, my services are international. As long as you have video conferencing access, we can work together!
