What is Coaching 

Who is my coach?

Coaching is you picking a path and being asked questions that promote reflection, process options, and generate ideas for change or goals.

Coaching is not me telling you which path to take. That is consulting. 

This support is not counseling or analyzing.  We might look back for brief moments, but the overall focus is on a forward path.

As your potential coach, I would like to share my qualifications.  Since 2000, I have been a middle/high school health educator. As an educator, I have always enjoyed serving diverse communities, such as Brown Deer School District in Wisconsin, Parkrose School District in Oregon, and Vancouver Public Schools (McLoughlin Middle School), in Washington. With graduate degrees in both Education and Community Psychology, I have a vast body of knowledge and experience relating to the constant challenges and changes life presents.  With such experience, I take pride in creating a safe space for self-exploration while providing support for clients.   Seek&Empower is a new passion of mine in hopes to continue to be of service and help individuals achieve inner empowerment. 

In 2017 I acquired an Associate Coaching Certification (ACC) from the International Coaching Federation (ICF).  I am currently participating in coursework to prepare for obtaining a Professional Coaching Certification (PCC) through the ICF.  If you would like more information about the ICF please follow the link to the website.
