Coaching is a person-centered process. We start from where you are, setting meaningful and simple challenges. Working together, we move forward in a positive and gentle way. This process creates lasting change. It isn't 'quick' but it is powerful. Combined with releasing trauma from the body (have a look at the somatic section to understand this a little more), these approaches mean very real and life changing shifts that stick. You are given the time and a safe space to explore your emotions and understand them better. Knowing your behaviours and having a better sense of who you are and why you behave as you do allows you to understand, accept and move toward more positive strategies.

I believe in the importance of considering the WHOLE person. We talk, just like any therapist session you would be used to. The difference is, we are noticing. Noticing what the body is telling us, how we feel and where we feel it. Connecting what the mind thinks to what the body feels, looking to understand the nervous system and connect what's happening in the brain to emotions and feelings in the body.

If your nervous system is in a state of fight or flight, resting becomes impossible. I will support you in learning simple tools that actually allow your body, mind and heart to rest. You deserve that.

One of the things we find most challenging is facing the pain or fear within. Allowing someone to support you means turning your penchant for distraction and avoidance into skills for connection and compassion.
