Frequently Asked Questions

What is coaching?

Coaching is a collaborative and confidential process designed to help you think more clearly, navigate challenges, and move forward with greater confidence and intention.

​​

Unlike advice-giving or consulting, coaching is not about someone telling you what to do. It is a thought partnership that creates space to slow down, reflect, challenge assumptions, and explore possibilities you may not be able to see on your own.​​

​​

How do I know if coaching is right for me?

Many people seek coaching when something in their life and/or work no longer feels sustainable or aligned.

​​

You may benefit from coaching if you are:

• Feeling burned out or overwhelmed

• Questioning your career direction

• Navigating leadership pressure or workplace complexity

• Feeling stuck or uncertain about your next step

• Considering a career change or transition

• Seeking greater fulfillment, confidence, or balance

• Wanting support with strategic decision-making or personal growth​

​​

What kinds of clients do you work with?

I work primarily with professionals and leaders with 10+ years of work experience who want support navigating career transitions, burnout, leadership challenges, and high-pressure work environments.​ Some are seeking clarity about what comes next. Others want support navigating demanding roles, difficult workplace dynamics, or decisions that carry personal and professional weight. Then there are those who just want out of their current workplaces or to develop the courage to pursue a lifelong dream. 

​

Can coaching help with burnout?

Yes. Burnout is often more than exhaustion. ​Coaching can help you better understand the factors contributing to burnout, identify patterns and pressures, reconnect with what matters most, and explore sustainable ways forward. 

​

Coaching paired with therapy is also extremely beneficial so I often encourage my clients to consider therapy with a licensed clinical counselor as well.

​​

Can coaching help me figure out my next career move?

Absolutely. Many clients come to coaching because they feel uncertain about what comes next professionally. ​Whether you are considering an internal move, a career transition, returning to work, or a larger professional reinvention, coaching supports thoughtful and strategic decision-making.

​​

What is leadership coaching?

Leadership coaching supports professionals navigating leadership responsibilities, organizational complexity, and high-pressure work environments. ​Coaching sessions are a confidential space to strengthen leadership effectiveness, improve decision-making, navigate workplace dynamics, and lead with greater clarity and confidence. ​

​

Leadership development coaching is available for those aspiring to leadership roles and desire to pursue leadership opportunities.

​​

Is coaching the same as therapy?

No.Therapy/counseling and coaching can both be valuable forms of support, but they serve different purposes.

Therapy often focuses on emotional healing, mental health, and processing past experiences.

​​

Coaching is future-focused and action-oriented. It helps you clarify goals, navigate challenges, and create practical strategies for moving forward.

​​

If emotional or mental health concerns emerge that would be better supported through therapy, I encourage clients to seek the appropriate care and support.

​​

Do you offer career coaching and life coaching?

My work integrates both professional and personal dimensions because the two are often interconnected.

​​​​

Do you offer coaching to organizations?

Yes. I work with organizations who are looking for a professional coach to work with their high potential staff and/or leaders. Contact us for more information on our organizational services.

​​

What happens during a coaching session?

Each coaching relationship is personalized. Sessions create dedicated time to reflect, think strategically, and work through challenges in a structured and supportive environment.​​

​

Clients often describe coaching as a rare opportunity to step out of the noise and think more clearly.

​​

What do assessments cost?

It depends on the assessment. I use a variety of assessments including but not limited to MBTI, Enneagram, StrengthsFinders, Hogan, DiSC, Korn Ferry 360 and custom 360s. Assessment cost can be built into your package or handled on a la carte basis if you choose it later.

​

How do I get started?

The first step is scheduling a consultation. This conversation gives us an opportunity to discuss what you are navigating, explore your goals, and determine whether coaching feels like the right fit.
