COACHING & TRAINING

MY APPROACH TO development

My approach incorporates basic nervous-system principles and practices naturally and engagingly into most of my coaching and training because the nervous system strongly influences how we:​

  • think

  • feel

  • relate

  • respond under stress

  • learn

  • change

  • access our existing strengths & capabilities

  • — and more!​

Below, I describe the fuller picture of working with the nervous system, personal triggers, and emotional and behavioral survival strategies to support meaningful and sustainable change, often in the realm of communication, conflict, and building and maintaining relationships.  For those wanting to work more directly with major loss and trauma, I also guide deeper 1:1 and group work.

The Sweet Spot for Lasting Change

It's my experience that there is a sweet spot for creating real growth and change in any domain – yet almost all development approaches fall short of reaching it. While often addressing the "what" and "why" to change, many omit  the "how".

See how each area helps us thrive, here:

Our Relationships

​

Here's the how!

And,

When these areas are thriving and in sync, we enter the optimal human state of feeling engaged and connected — to our Best Self, to others, and to the priorities, work, and goals that matter most to us!

Whatever your growth and development focus is, my coaching and training will guide you to work with — and not against — the way we're naturally wired biologically, cognitively, psychologically, and socially.

I’ll help you understand how our nervous system is key to moving us toward engagement and connection or toward reactivity and shutdown. You’ll practice strategies for applying nervous-system principles so you can access your existing strengths, build the new knowledge and capacities you seek, and improve your effectiveness and results — both at home and work!

So, if you want to step into YOUR Best Self,

or help your group or team do the same,

  • Internal Family Systems (IFS)

MY APPROACH IS

Grounded in science & sound theory

My approach is grounded in neuroscience science and theory, high quality assessments, emotional intelligence (EQ) and authentic, effective role modeling of the skills that matter most to you or your team.  These are the five core modalities that influence my approach:
