Coaching & Consultation

Coaching with me is less about advice and more about listening for what already wants to move in you.

As a former Marriage and Family Therapist and Family Life Educator, I offer coaching, consultation, mediation, and restorative facilitation for adults, parents, families, educators, and organizations. We might work on something specific. A conflict, a decision, a relationship that isn’t working, or something harder to name, like feeling off-track or depleted.

Relationships & communication

Over 25 years working with families and communities, I’ve seen how much changes when people learn to actually hear each other. I help with conflict repair, communication breakdowns, and building the kind of relationships where people feel safe to be honest.

Focusing

Focusing is a body-centered practice developed by philosopher Eugene Gendlin. Instead of analyzing a problem, you learn to listen to the “felt sense”: the subtle, often wordless way the body already knows what matters. It’s a quiet, surprisingly effective way to get unstuck without forcing it.

What sessions can address

• Conflict and repair in close relationships
• Stress, burnout, and feeling overwhelmed
• Parenting challenges and family communication
• Life transitions and hard decisions
• Getting clear on what you actually want

How it works

Sessions are available in person and online. We start with a conversation about what’s going on, then find a rhythm that fits. No fixed agenda, no pressure, just consistent, attentive support.
