What is coaching?

My coaching practice centers around providing you a conversational space to explore your dreams and goals without fear of judgement. 
  Life is a long process of discovery and growth and I am pleased to present useful tools I have discovered along the way.

What coaching is not.

Coaching is not therapy, counselling or psychology. These helping professions deal with past events and how they relate to your thoughts and feelings in the present. Coaching focuses on the present and future and you will set goals to move forward.
Coaching is not consulting or mentoring. I ask questions to allow you to find your own answers.
