Question 1

What is coaching?

Accepted Answer

Coaching is a co-created conversation that supports self-awareness, clarity, and forward movement. You bring your lived experience, your questions, and the challenge you’re working through. I bring deep listening, curiosity, and a structure that helps us get to the heart of what matters.

This isn’t advice-giving. I don’t hand you answers—I help you access your own. Coaching is about uncovering what’s already inside you and making intentional choices about where you go next.

Question 2

Is coaching like therapy?

Accepted Answer

Nope—and that’s an important distinction.
Therapy often looks to the past to heal what’s unresolved.
Consulting tells you what to do, offering expert strategies and advice.
Teaching imparts specific skills or knowledge.
Coaching meets you in the present and focuses on creating your desired future.

We might reflect on the past, especially when it’s shaping what’s happening now—but our work stays rooted in where you are and where you want to go.

Question 3

What is somatic coaching and embodiment? Why do they matter?

Accepted Answer

“Somatic” comes from soma, meaning the body. Embodiment means recognizing that you are a body—not just a mind with a body attached.

As a somatic coach, I help you access the intelligence of your full self—not just your thoughts, but your sensations, your emotions, your nervous system responses. Your body carries information your mind alone can’t access.

We integrate embodiment practices in our work to help you tune into that wisdom, make new choices, and move through life in ways that feel more alive, aligned, and true.

Question 4

What will we actually do in a coaching session?

Accepted Answer

Every session starts with you. You name what you want to focus on and what you'd like to walk away with.

We might explore what’s getting in your way, look at how you’re relating to a challenge, or engage in body-based practices that help you shift a stuck pattern. No two sessions are the same, but you can always expect deep presence, thoughtful questions, and space to hear yourself clearly.

We end each session by designing practices you can take into your daily life. This isn’t just insight work—it’s integration work.

Question 5

How do I know if we’re a fit?

Accepted Answer

We start with a 45-minute discovery call to explore just that.

You’ll share what’s bringing you to coaching and what you’re hoping to shift. I’ll share how I work and reflect back what I see. Sometimes we click—and sometimes we don't. And that’s okay. If we’re not the right fit, I’ll gladly refer you to someone who might be.

This is about right relationship, not forcing something that isn’t aligned.
