As parents, we wear a LOT of hats! One of the biggest being head cheerleader for our children. But some times our kids just don't want to hear from us, even though we've walked in their shoes and just know can help them.
Here's where I come in. I can be a "guide from the side." Some one with no "skin in the game", who can objectively listen to what’s going on, ask some meaty questions and help build a game plan for action.
So what might that look like? I help with many hurdles, including
Clarifying the Mission= helping them get clear on what it is they want.
Mindset= Understanding that there are tools which they can use which will help them in all aspects of life
Social and mental work includes areas such as : coping with anxiety and/or stress or prepping for a big moment (team tryout or job interview)
School expectations, academic pressure and how to come up with a plan that works for your teen
Are college sports right for your teen? What's the plan and how do we get there?

Teen coaching
Is your teen athlete getting in their own way? Is having a positive mindset an issue? Or do they struggle with limiting beliefs?
Through a free introductory call with the parent we discuss what is going on. Then if we think it’s a fit, we’ll set up a time for me to meet one on one with your teen. Either in person or over zoom/phone.
This is NOT therapy. In a quick 50-min laser coaching session, I establish rapport with your teen. We assess what their biggest concerns are and can give them a "taste" of what working with me feels like.
what's included In THe
coaching session
50-MIN INTENSIVE CALL he/she needs clarity around their issue, what's holding them back and a plan on how to move forward.
Assess. Create. Take action. In this skype session/call or meeting (if you live in the LA area), we'll get clear on what the issue is, we'll create an agreed upon plan as to next steps and I'll help him/her see that the path forward is one filled with unlimited possibility (and they are in complete control of this!)
EMAIL/TEXT SUPPORT after. I am here to help you, the parent, as well. I want to make sure that you and your teen feel like they have to support to make a shift. We all need coaching and this support (sometimes its just a voice that's not Mom or Dad's is what's needed).
