For folks who have more of a goal in mind, or are finding yourself stuck in an area of life, coaching may be a good fit for you. I work with folks to help identify business, relationship, or personal goals and work through any blockages to those goals. This could include emotional, mental, and/or social blockages. Together we find ways to create plans and support to help you achieve your goals. I believe that the body is a place of great learning. We will be using somatics, movement, solution-focused, person-centered, and goal-oriented lenses to guide our work and to learn more about how and why we are stuck, as well as how to move forward. 

I have over 24 years of training in dance and movement, including a dance minor from The University of Vermont, focused on improvisational movement and post-modern dance. I am passionate about using improvisational movement as a way to make change on micro, meso, and macro levels of ones life and the world around us. 

The benefits can be that by using somatic and movement practices, along with contemplative and goal-oriented conversations, individuals will start to learn how to live from a place of more alignment within their bodies, mind, and soul. When we are able to do this, the ways forward begin to open up. Sometimes, this happens in ways we never thought possible. Ultimately, I believe that if we can become more attuned to our bodies and how they relate to our inner and outer worlds,  this will help us to make positive choices and change in our lives, communities, and systems. Everyone has different experiences with this type of practice. Different life experiences and intersections of identity make these experiences very unique. If you have any concerns or questions about your ability to engage in this type of work, please email me and I would be happy to chat with you more about it to see if its a good fit. 

While some helpful tools may be given to help manage emotions and thoughts to aid in the momentum of your goals, coaching sessions are not therapy or a stand-in for therapy.

I work with each client to discuss supports and plans for this time away.
