Coaching leaders, teams, and individuals to bright and productive futures.

As a Professional Certified Coach, I partner with clients in a supportive style to make and sustain desired changes through Vision Based Coaching.

Over the years, most of my coaching has been with business leaders, work teams, human resource professionals, medical professionals, and educators.

With the belief that all people are “inherently strong, capable, and wise”, my door is open to anyone wanting to make and sustain positive changes in their life. 

Who are my typical clients?

Why Coaching?

Most people seek coaching because they want to make changes in their life, better adapt to their environment, or simply to be a better version of themselves.

Let me share a few examples from my coaching:

  • A hard charging physician wanted to learn calmer ways of being so he could interact more effectively with his staff.

  • A newly retired executive was struggling to fine purpose in her new phase of life.

  • Mark, a school custodian, had become addicted to spreading gossip around the school. It is how he found power. It also made him feel bad inside.

  • Jane, a human resource professional, wanted to be less judgmental.

  • A young mother with a very busy schedule came to me with the purpose of setting boundaries in her life.

What is Vision Based Coaching?

The sad truth is that most people who try to make changes in their life fail. If your plan starts with: “I should, I must, I ought”, you are likely heading for failure. Vision Based Coaching, centers on the work of experts like Richard Boyatzis, Ph.D., and Angela Passareli, Ph.D., provides a positive and effective path to change.

Vision Based Coaching does not focus on obstacles, past failures, or limitations. Instead, focus is given to the desired outcome or vision. Boyatzis talks about “A Path to My Dreams”.

When attempting to make and sustain change, most people focus on the difficulties ahead, their lack of willpower, how they failed the last time. This thinking stimulates the “Fight or Flight” nervous system and pulls them into a pit of failure. With Vision Based coaching clients live into their “High Dream” or vision - fitting into that summer suit, putting down a destructive habit, living life more fully. This more positive approach may not seem like much. Trust me, it is life changing.
