One-on-One Personalized Coaching
Development- Based, Outcome-Focused, and Practical
WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
Results
In the quiet of your own mind - when no one is listening - do you ever find yourself thinking things like this?
“I’m respected. People come to me for answers. But most days, this feels mechanical. Where did the fun go?”
“Everyone assumes I’m under immense pressure - yet the real pressure comes from holding it all together for everyone else.”
“If I slow down or question this too openly, something might crack. I’ve built a life around this role but is it still working for my life?
“I’m not lost. I just don’t feel aligned.”
Lawyers, leaders, and senior professionals rarely talk about this part of success - the quiet loneliness of being competent, trusted, and increasingly unsure whether the version of you that got here is the one meant to carry you forward.
You’ve learned to manage complexity, stay composed, and solve problems efficiently. And yet, somewhere along the way, the work narrowed. The stakes stayed high, but the meaning thinned out. Questioning things began to feel riskier than staying put.
My 1:1 career development and coaching programs are for people at this exact stage - where effort alone won’t produce clarity, and the next step can’t be forced.
This work isn’t about burning things down. It’s about creating space to examine how you relate to your work, your identity, and your inner pressure - so decisions become steadier, boundaries cleaner, and energy returns.
As James Hollis writes, “The greatest burden a person carries is the unlived life within them.”
This program exists to help you meet that truth - without blowing up everything you’ve built.
PROFESSIONAL AND EXECUTIVE COACHING
When lawyers and senior professionals reach this point - when the usual levers stop working and the questions get harder to name and answer - I’m the person they turn to.
I’ve worked with senior lawyers who were trusted advisors to their clients, but quietly paralyzed about making decisions in their own careers. They now make moves with clarity instead of second-guessing.
I’ve coached partners who could manage complex files, teams, and negotiations, yet felt increasingly disconnected from their families and themselves. They now work with firmer boundaries - and far less internal pressure.
I’ve worked with high-performing professionals who were admired for their composure and competence, but privately exhausted from carrying everything alone. They now allow support without feeling diminished by it.
I’ve coached leaders who were exceptional problem-solvers, but so identified with being “the reliable one” that they had no room left for creativity or choice. They now lead with steadiness rather than strain.
Working together is a deeply personalized process.
There is no template, no one-size-fits-all plan, and no performative version of growth.
We look at your work, your identity, your pressure, and your patterns - from the inside out - and design a custom coaching engagement that meets you exactly where you are, and supports where you want to be headed.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
-
It might feel that way sometimes, but no. Coaching differs from therapy in a a number of important ways, namely - it is limited (i.e. we work for a set period of time); it is focused (i.e. we work towards specific outcomes); it is highly intentional (i.e. we are working from a program designed for you and you alone, and we stay on the path of that program); it is forward-looking (i.e. we are working towards future development, not rehashing your entire previous life - unless you really want to); and, coaching is not available to anyone - clients need to be developmentally ready to take on the work required of a coaching program.

While there is no strict way of working together, I tend to work with my clients for between 3 and 6 months at a time, usually speaking on a bi-weekly basis, and always providing ongoing insight into my client’s work and lives, and, offering practices that will allow my clients to continue to discover their own inner resourcefulness to implement meaningful development in their work and their lives. At the outset of our engagement, we’ll spend some time talking and getting to know each other, while I also listen for what I need to prepare a development program for you. From there, we co-create that program - your mission, your desired outcomes, and the tools and skills that we can work with together to get you there. At the end of our time together, I will leave you with a plan so you can continue to move forward in work and in life with continued competency, the means to self-correct, and a renewed commitment to your self.

My rates vary depending on whether I am working with an institutional client (i.e. an organization providing coaching for its teams or individual employees or team members), a single person, doing a speaking engagement, or providing other additional services in addition to coaching. That is all to say - I work with my clients to find the right cost that works for them and does not inhibit their ability to work with me and achieve their goals.
-
While I do, I find that lasting, meaningful change takes time, and I prefer to work with clients over a period of 3-6 months. Over that period, we track the changes that are made and really sense into the movement that is taking place toward intended outcomes. That all said - each person comes to me in their own circumstances and we can always find an arrangement that works to budget, schedule and other time limitations.
-
Life sometimes calls on us to change our plans, and that is OK. My goal is to make sure that, whether there is a pause placed on our work together, whether we have completed an engagement, or you simply have to stop - you are equipped with the skills and tools you need to continue in your own development going forward.
-
Both!

Typically, I work with my clients for a period of 3-6 months (between 10 and 12 sessions). Lasting and meaningful change takes time and practice and it is important to create a container for us to work within that allows enough space for that to occur.

Let’s talk and find out. Some of my favourite conversations are with potential clients who are coming to me and not sure whether they need coaching or if we’ll be a good fit. That’s why I prefer to spend time speaking and knowing, for both of us, whether we can work together and co-create a program that point you towards the outcomes you are looking for.

If you ask me, of course it does.
But don’t take it from me.
One study showed that psychologically informed coaching approaches (like Integral Coaching) facilitated effective work-related outcomes, particularly on goal attainment, self-efficacy, goal attainment and internal self-regulation.
Additionally, integrative coaching approaches facilitated better outcomes, including coachees' psychological well-being.
Others have shown that clients reported increased self-awareness and clarity of thought, more solidly built leadership skills, the achievement of organisational or professional goals, better work/life balance, improved relationships and a greater sense of purpose, values and self.
