How would you like to finally achieve those important life goals
that you never seem to get around to?

  Life coaching is a process in which I coach and help my client achieve specific important life goals which they have heretofore been unable to achieve. In the quadrant below, you can see that our time and attention is pulled in four different directions. We first make time for things that are both important and urgent, such as a medical emergency. Then we tend to get things done that feel urgent, but may actually not be very important. For example, how often do we interrupt a family dinner to answer the phone or door only to find it is an unwelcome solicitor? Unfortunately, often the goals in our lives that are truly important, such as beginning or completing a degree, achieving personal health, fitness, and self-care, are the goals that never receive our attention because they are not urgent.

Covey's Time Management Matrix

X
URGENT
NOT URGENT
IMPORTANT

I

Crises, pressing problems, deadlines

II

Value-driven, prevention, planning, vision work

NOT IMPORTANT

III

Phone calls & mail, some paperwork

IV

Busywork, Time wasters, TV, internet


  I help clients move into box II and finally address important life goals by helping them break large and/or overwhelming goals down into small, manageable pieces. I then provide structure, support, continuity and accountability to ensure that clients complete the goals.

  My coaching is usually conducted using phone, Internet and fax consults. It begins with a 60 minute telephone consult to identify coaching goals, and then usually involves 30 minute consults once per week. Faxes and emails are usually exchanged during the week to ensure that you are staying on track. I also offer coaching for women in the context of a hike, which is further explained on the Hike Therapy for Women page. My fees for coaching are explained on the Fees page of this website. Additionally, I always welcome phone calls and a 30 minute free consult so that we can further discuss these services, and determine if my services would be a good fit for your needs.
