my practice:

  • involves talking through personal and relational issues to enhance self-awareness, offer support, and strengthen relationships. My role as your coach is to find the right balance of support and challenge to help you develop better problem-solving skills, strategic thinking, and movement toward realizing your goals and desires.

  • involves talking through work-related issues with an emphasis on self-awareness, communication skills, professional conduct, and conflict resolution. My role as your coach is to find the right mix of support and challenge to help you meet your goals. (Learn more here.)

  • involves spending time together paying attention to your spiritual life. My role as your spiritual director is to hold space for you as you seek connection with God and experience God’s love for you. We also listen for God’s direction and purpose for you. And we look for ways to strengthen your relationship with God in your everyday life. (Learn more here.)
