COACHING

You are not alone.

You may be feeling overwhelmed, overjoyed, and/or over in the next room needing a break.

I want you to know that (1) whatever you’re feeling is normal, (2) this is a process, and (3) your best shot at navigating this with more peace of mind, compassion and ease is to have both a sense of humor and a partner.

I’m very happy to be your partner. Here are some ways we can work together:

You Just Found Out...What's Next?

90 minute session introducing you to the parents’ coming out process, 3 practical tools, and a safe space to explore what you’re feeling.

You Just Found Out...And You Need Guidance NOW!

6-week Intensive one-on-one support. This is a safe space to navigate conflicting emotions, discover resources and tools for both you and your child, and be fully supported as the landscape of your life shifts.

You’re In It and Would Love Support

Ongoing support / private coaching

The Fear and Overwhelm are Real...

and they're Impermanent

Loving and raising an LGBTQ+ child is a very special journey that comes with very specific joys and challenges. It is vital - not to mention time, money, and potentially life saving - to work with someone who has traveled a similar path.

Here is why - in additional to the benefits of that person's life experience and the knowledge that comes along with it, you also get empathy, validation, and someone who can hold space for you.

You're in the right place if...

You're feeling SHOCK, DENIAL, GUILT, etc. (it's okay, this is NORMAL!)
You're feeling a mix of LOVE and ACCEPTANCE AND
OVERWHELM and BEWILDERMENT (it's okay, this is also NORMAL!)
You have questions and want a safe space to ask them
You have experiences you'd like to process
You want support and guidance
You prefer a personalized approach
You want to talk to someone who has been where you are

How is Coaching Different than Therapy?

This is a very common question and point of distinction.

Therapists treat mental health issues.

Coaches build mental fitness, meaning a focus on well-being and growth.

Therapy helps one heal from the past.

Coaching helps one with the present and where one wishes to be in the future.

Therapy focuses on the "why" of behaviors, such as limiting beliefs, negative self-talk, etc.

Coaching focuses on the "how," such as getting unstuck (good-bye overwhelm!) or working toward a goal like banishing fear.

Each provide valuable support and can help you in a multitude of ways, which is why many people utilize both (myself included!)

Private Sessions

Private sessions are a great option for ongoing support once you've completed one of the above options.

If you're looking for a space to process and learn; a space where you can show up alone, with your partner, or with your whole family; a space to move through the plethora of emotions and grow as a parent, partner, friend...human being, then private sessions are for you.

Practice and integration of new tools and strategies empower you to move forward on this beautifully messy journey. Love and acceptance can help any family thrive and be happy. Choose from two packages. Sessions are one hour each.
