Frequently Asked Questions
-
I’m a coach, not a therapist. I have a long list of therapists I can recommend you to if your needs require more than I can offer.
Here’s a basic rundown of the differences between coach and therapist.
Life coaches are action-driven with their clients and cannot diagnose. Therapists can diagnose and rely on a variety of therapies, but are not always action-driven. Certification is not needed to be a practicing life coach, but a great deal of school and licensing is needed to be a therapist.
A life coach will help you do the following:
• Change your thinking
• Increase your emotional wellbeing
• Change limited belief systems
• Reframe past experiences
• Set and achieve goals
• Make life changes
• Increase motivation
• Learn a new skill
• Change your self-identity
A therapist can do all of that plus
• Treat mental illness or clinical anxiety or depression
• Heal past trauma
• Cope with traumatic loss
• Cope with abuse
• Treat addiction or substance abuse
• Cope with relationship turmoil or violence

In Understand Your Teen, your teen needs to be willing to do the assessments. They are welcome to join us on the call!
In Safe Place Parent Coaching, I only work with you. If we find it valuable and your teen is open, we can invite them into a session or two.
I take on teen clients on a case-by-case basis.
-
My goal in working with you is to make sure you are able to withstand the load that you are carrying during this time through nervous system work and maintaining or repairing your relationship with your teen. I cannot help your teen with their issues through you. Should you need a diagnosis, or treatment such as EMDR , I will refer you to a therapist.
Your teen should have their own professional help of their own.
-
Not everyone is ready when they first find me, and that’s ok! Start with some of the free resources and apply what you learn there with your teens. You can attend a free workshop as they’re offered, or we can chat and I can give you some direction!
-
Nope! No pressure. My goal is to serve.
This 20-min call is geared for me to hear your concerns and what you need help with. I’ll give you one tip you can implement immediately and tell you we’d work on in one-on-one sessions, if you want to hear it.
I will also ask if you want to hear more about my offers. Only if you say yes will I tell you about them.
-
My Nervous System Reset and Understand Your Teen Parent Insight Call are virtual through Google Meet.
For Safe Place Parent Coaching, If you’re local, you have the option of either! If you’re not local, the calls are virtual through Google Meet.
-
If we meet virtually, yes, you will get a video recording and a transcript of our call.
If we meet in person, you can get a transcript of the session, but no recording.
-
Each offer is a little different. You can check the FAQ for each offer to get specific details.
Nervous System Reset and Safe Place Parent Coaching both have a form to be completed before we meet.
Understand Your Teen has a two-part assessment that must be completed by you and your teen.
-
For Safe Place Parent Coaching, I offer a money back guarantee: if, after 3 sessions you’ve done the work and still don’t feel like you’re moving towards your goal, I will end the contract and give you all of your money back.
Your success and progress is very important to me. We’ll check in frequently to make sure you feel you are moving forward.
However, there are times where we' discover therapy or counseling would be a better support than my coaching. In that case, I release you from the contract to get the help you truly need.
