Coaching At Trinity Integrative Care

First, we can do a coaching session using any venue, e.g., phone, live conferencing, or even face to face. This is 100% your choice!

The main requirement is that you be in a place that's private, comfortable, quiet, and where you cannot be interrupted. This is because once we begin a session, this type of environment will help you to better focus on what's going on in the moment, and to envision possibilities for you.

Initial coaching sessions average about 45 minutes to no longer than an hour. Subsequent sessions depend on the topic, but can be as short as 15-20 minutes.

We will first spend a few short minutes with a centering or grounding, breathing activity to help relax you so that it's easier to focus.

After you identify a topic for the session, I will offer some options of how to address that topic.

Then, depending on the topic you identify and the goals you want to achieve by the end of the session, we may try a few fun techniques and activities.

These activities and the use of a variety of communication techniques are geared toward facilitating you to 'move inward', so to speak, to discover ways to address that topic in your life.

Accountability is an essential part of what we do in a coaching session! At the end of each session, you will be asked to identify a fun and easy 'home work' you can do the following week that will be a small baby step toward your goal. It will be up to you whether or not you want to follow up with that at a subsequent session.

Sometimes 3-4 people want to meet together on a bi-weekly or monthly basis.

One big advantage of these sessions is that one is able to hear different perspectives that may concern similar issues, but groups do not have to revolve around one issue.

Sometimes friends want to get together as a source of support for each other.

Another advantage of group coaching is that it saves money. The cost of a group coaching session is split between how many members are present (never more than 4 people).

A group coaching session begins with a short centering, grounding breathing activity, and then each person has a 10-12 minute coaching session.

It's amazing what can be accomplished in a short period of time! This is why everyone has the opportunity to have a private session with me so that we can further expand on a desired topic.

Venues are similar: phone, live conferencing, or face to face. This is completely up to the group members. Sometimes it's a combination of venues!

We often use a brief imagery activity in a regular coaching session if time allows, but integrative imagery is a bit different.

This is another fun, easy and results-oriented strategy for addressing just about anything.

It involves a more lengthy breathing, meditative relaxation activity as a beginning, and then I will help you move inward on a deeper level.

Like coaching, it's fun and effective for addressing certain topics, such as anxiety about an upcoming event, negative self-talk, or even solving a problem.

Just let me know if you'd like to try this sometime! It usually takes about an hour.

Because my goal is to help people enjoy a greater sense of well-being, coaching is very reasonably priced.

You are welcome to have a 30 minute free introductory session.

Session by session rates are $55.00, or packages are available at significantly discounted rates for 5 or more sessions.

Group coaching sessions depend on the number of people in the group and the frequency of desired meeting.
