How do I Meet with You?
The beauty of coaching is that it can be done from wherever! I reside in Nashville, TN, so clients who live in Nashville or are traveling through Nashville are welcome to come in for in-person sessions at my office. Most of my coaching clients, however, live all over the country and even the world! For non-Nashville clients we will meet either on the phone or through a video format called Zoom (which is HIPPA compliant). Video sessions are preferred as being able to see facial expressions, read body language and have a face-to-face conversation is ideal. However, like the rest of this process, we will find a medium that is most comfortable for you!
Working with me as your coach
My personal philosophy of coaching mirrors my philosophy of therapy: each individual is unique in their experiences, symptoms and healing journey. Therefore, I am committed to working with you to find modalities and healing interventions that work for you. I combine my knowledge and experiences of these different issues to create a treatment plan that is unique and effective for you. While many coaches work within a specific timeframe (e.g. 6 months), I have found that it is impossible to put a time limit on how fast or slow healing can occur; how long we work together is an ongoing conversation between the two of us. I do make a recommendation that if it fits within your schedule and budget, having a session on a weekly basis for the first two months tends to be the most helpful. However, if this does not work for you, we will design a plan and schedule that does.
