F.A.Q
What exactly is coaching?
Coaching is a structured, goal-focused process that helps you examine your thinking, decision-making, and behavior to create real, lasting change. Unlike therapy, which often focuses on processing the past and emotional healing, coaching is forward-looking and action-oriented. Unlike consulting, which gives advice or tells you what to do, coaching guides you to understand your patterns, identify obstacles, and develop strategies so you can make informed choices. The focus is on building clarity, developing self-mastery, and producing tangible results, not simply providing solutions or emotional support.
Are you certified or licensed?
I am trained through the International Coaching Federation and have studied extensively in individual psychology, building on both formal training and lived experience. This work is grounded in real-world application and results. If you need clinical care, therapy, or a diagnosis, this is not the right space. But if your goal is clarity, direction, and the ability to reconstruct your mental framework, this work is highly effective.
Who can benefit from this type of coaching?
Coaching is for anyone with a clear goal who is ready to take deliberate action to achieve it. If you have a SMART goal and are willing to examine your thinking, confront patterns that hold you back, and apply practical strategies, coaching will help you make measurable, lasting progress.
How long does the coaching process take?
The length of coaching depends on your specific goals and where you are now. Commitments are typically structured in 3, 6, or 12 months, designed to address the private logic, beliefs, and patterns that are keeping you from achieving your goals. During this time, we work directly on uncovering obstacles, reshaping thinking, and building the habits and decision-making that produce measurable, lasting progress.
What kind of results can I expect?
You can expect to gain clarity, uncover and break unproductive patterns, and make decisions that align with your goals. The results are tangible and lasting, but they require your full engagement and accountability. Coaching gives you the tools, structure, and perspective to change, but your progress depends on your willingness to do the work and apply what you uncover.
Will I be given advice or told what to do?
No. You won’t receive generic solutions or instructions. Instead, our sessions focus on uncovering the patterns and hidden logic driving your decisions and behaviors. I guide you to see blind spots, break through unseen resistance, and take precise control of your life. This is the work most people cannot do on their own, and it’s designed to create real, measurable progress toward your goals.
What if I feel stuck during the process?
Feeling stuck is part of the work. Sessions are designed to uncover the barriers and patterns holding you back, and to give you tools to move forward. Your progress depends on actively applying these insights and taking responsibility for navigating the challenges that arise.
How do I know if I’m ready to commit?
You’re ready if you have a clear goal and are willing to be honest with yourself, confront the patterns holding you back, and take full responsibility for creating meaningful change. Coaching works when you actively engage and apply what you uncover.
What makes this coaching different from other programs?
This coaching is goal-oriented, individualized, and focused on changing how you think and make decisions. It doesn’t rely on tips, formulas, or temporary motivation. Instead, it uncovers the patterns and logic that have been holding you back and gives you the tools to create lasting, measurable change.
How do I apply and what does the process involve?
Start by completing a short application that outlines your goals, current patterns, and readiness to engage. I review each application personally and, if we’re aligned, we schedule a Clarity Call to assess your situation, confirm fit, and determine the structure that will best support your progress. This ensures the coaching process is tailored to you and set up for measurable, lasting results.
