To help you gain clarity and focus
-
To assist you in finding the motivation to take the necessary steps forward
-
To help you to uncover and see what you’re not able to see on your own

To be really present and focused on you
-
To ask questions and make requests to which you are always free to say yes, no or maybe
-
To listen to what you’re saying but to also hear what it is you’re not saying
-
To help you always remember what’s most important and to hold that as a beacon to guide and carry you through

To metaphorically hold your hand while encouraging you to stand in your strength
-

What I ask of my clients:
-
To be kind, honest and direct
-
To be open and “show up” to the best of your ability
-
To have the desire to move beyond any feelings of being a victim or a martyr. While these are very normal, human reactions in this situation, we want to move forward as it's not healthy or productive to live there
-
To be fully responsible for your own feelings, decisions, and choices before, during, and after our meeting
