Integrative Global Coaching
What we water, grows. What you focus on is likely to manifest. Where you set your sights, you approach.
We have much more power and influence than we realize! Our thoughts, emotions, and focus are powerful, so we need to be purposeful with our intentions and how we direct our energies.
Coaching sessions are present and future oriented, and require your motivation, inner sense of responsibility and willpower energy. I will bring over 20 years of training, expertise, and experience and an eclectic blend of approaches to support you in re-visioning your present and future, clarifying your values and priorities, identifying short and long-term goals and the steps along the way.
Global coaching sessions are ideal for planning job or career changes; new business visioning and launching; moving; communication coaching in relationships; creative coaching for writers, artists, and musicians; time management and productivity; college/education focus planning; self-development.
Also I offer some additional specialty coaching sessions:

Post Camino de Santiago Coaching
You are either currently walking one of the routes of the Camino de Santiago, or you’ve recently finished walking a Camino (for now). Perhaps you have been at a transition point in your life and needed to take some time for yourself walking on the Camino to sort through and reflect on where you’ve been and what your next steps could be.
Often finishing a camino comes with a feeling of exhilaration, and satisfaction, but also a sense of sadness that this camino has come to an end and some anxiety about re-entering into your life and deciding, “What now?” You feel changed and with new perspective, but perhaps returning to your former life as it was, might feel uncomfortable like an outgrown sweater.
I offer single sessions or special Post-Camino three-session packs to help you transition into an updated daily life with more satisfaction, meaning and purpose. With creative revisioning, you will be able to identify new possibilities and make the needed shifts so that your life expands and grows with you.

Psycho-spiritual coaching
For those who spirituality is already an important part of their lives or for those who would like to have a stronger spiritual connection, I offer Psycho-Spiritual Coaching, where in addition to the integrative coaching, we include and reference the spiritual dimensions of your goals and intentions, and work within the spiritual or religious frame of reference you are most comfortable with. There is a lot more potential of what we can accomplish together by including the spiritual aspect for those who welcome this.

FAQs
What is Integrative Global Coaching?
Online coaching that is provided internationally and that integrates a variety of supportive approaches aimed at integrating your physical, emotional, mental and spiritual health. It’s integrative, squared :)Why Coaching vs. Psychotherapy?
I have practiced (and continue to practice) psychotherapy for over 20 years and I am a big supporter of it when necessary. However, what we focus on is what grows, so while it’s important to acknowledge and understand the hurts and challenges of the past and learn from them, we cannot stay there if we want to move forward and live a healthy fulfilling and meaningful life.
I find it most helpful to use our creative energy and power of our thoughts and direct them towards co-creating the circumstances of more Love, Light and Beauty in our lives, towards the people and projects in our lives that can most benefit. Where can the investment of our time, focus and energy do the most good?If you are motivated to find direction in your life or increase your sense of vitality and purpose (i.e. change of career, relationship, where to live, what to study, how to balance your time, spiritual questions, etc. and you have solid executive functioning, Coaching is a good option for you. If you have significant past trauma which continues to impact your functioning in your life (relationships, job, school, day to day life), psychotherapy would be more suitable.
Why do you include spiritual health?
I believe we are much more than our bodies, emotions, and our thoughts, that we are spiritual beings which includes having a sense of purpose and greater connectedness to each other, to our universe and beyond, and that a majority of people “know” this on some level. Acknowledging this and working this way offers us a tremendous source of connection, strength, steadiness and direction that psychology techniques alone cannot offer.Is psycho-spiritual coaching religious coaching or based on any religion?
No. People of all religions, no religion, and spiritual backgrounds are equally welcome and we can integrate your spiritual beliefs, if important to you, as source of support, value, and direction.
