​

My life has transformed right before my eyes through the coaching relationship with Judy... Eight months ago I was a complete wreck... everything was out of balance. Through Judy's intuition, insights and her warm and gentle personality my world opened up to so many new possibilities. I have found my calling...

Thank you Judy for opening my life back up and enhancing my sense of well being! HMT

Deeply appreciated your willingness to support me in every way. What a blessing God has provided for me! YJ

How Does Coaching Work?

* As a coach, I work in partnership, focusing

   on getting results identified by you, the client.

* Coaching is not counseling or therapy.

* Coaching results cannot be guaranteed.

* As a client, you hold the agenda and are

   responsible for your results.

* Because I believe wholeheartedly that you

   are the expert of your life and that you

   already have the answers inside of you, my

   role is to accompany you using the tools,

   training and experience I have acquired in

   my life.

* I ask questions that challenge you to expand

   your vision, thoughts, beliefs, assumptions

   and behaviors, help create an action plan

   together with you, hold you accountable to

   your goals and celebrate your success and

   failures. 

​

After the final no

there comes

a yes

and on that yes

the future world depends.

How do we Begin?

* Use the Contact me form on this website and

   I will respond as soon as I am able to set up a

   free 30 minute sample session to meet one

   another and determine if we are a good fit

   for what you desire in coaching.

* We design basic agreements about how we

    will work together including a monthly fee

    that honors what we each bring to the

    coaching relationship.

* Generally, I coach my clients by telephone, so

    you can be anywhere in the world as long as

    we can arrange a time to meet together.

* I have a local office one day a week, at the

   Interfaith Counseling Center where we can

    arrange to meet in person.

* I will send you a Welcome to Coaching packet

   with our basic agreement and details of our

   time together.

* I send several things which will help me

   coach you effectively and give us time when

   we meet to focus on what you bring in the

    moment.

* Our first paid session together is a 1/1/2 - 2

   hour Discovery Session where the majority of

   our time is spent discovering your core values,

   exploring your life purpose as well as other

   tools that will be important in the coaching

   process.

* Following the Discovery Session, we will meet

   regularly for 30 or 45 minutes where you

   bring the topic you want to explore that day. * After most sessions you will have some type

   of 'homework', a plan of action which will help

   you build new patterns and beliefs about

   yourself and your life purpose, help you set

   goals and the accountability structure for

   those goals, and move you forward in what

   you want to offer the world.

* The value from our work together will come

    partly from our session, but more importantly

    from what you do, discover or learn about

    yourself between our appointments.

* We usually schedule 2 meetings a month and I

    ask that you commit to a 3 month minimum

    which gives us both enough time working

    together to see results.
