What Coaching Is
What Coaching Isn't
What Coaching Isn't
The International Coaching Federation defines coaching as:
“…partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential.
The process of coaching often unlocks previously untapped sources of imagination, productivity and leadership.
We all have goals we want to reach, challenges we’re striving to overcome and times when we feel stuck. Partnering with a coach can change your life, setting you on a path to greater personal and professional fulfillment.”

What Coaching Isn't
Coaching is not a replacement for therapy. I do not diagnose or treat mental health conditions. Nevertheless, many clients work with a therapist and a coach simultaneously.
Coaching is not telling. While I may offer some ideas and strategies for you to consider, most of our time will be spent with me helping you tap into your own wisdom and insights.
Coaching isn’t problem-solving. It’s about helping you identify what you want, getting clear about why it’s important to you, and creating a timely and motivating strategy for achieving your goals.
Coaching isn’t about fixing yourself or someone else. Coaching is about tapping into your strengths, gifts, talents, assets, resources, values, and ideas to help you create the life and relationships you want for today and tomorrow.

Work with me to understand how to navigate conversations around anxieties, mental health, motivation, life outlook, and effective communication with a young person you love.
Partner with Sophie for individual coaching or group coaching with you AND your child to bridge communication gaps, grow mutual understanding, and improve the overall relationship.
If you are a parent who:
- wants a better relationship with your adolescent (ages 13 through adult)
- wants to discover how to best parent an adolescent
- isn’t satisfied with how you communicate with your teen or grown-up child
- feels frustrated with the choices your kid is making, but you don’t know what to do next
- keeps having the same conversations over and over, but nothing changes
- keeps offering to help your adolescent but they don’t want your help
- wants to let your child be independent but you don’t know how (or you do but you’re worried), or
- is ready to dig deep into what your role as a parent really means, and how it needs to adapt over time,
I might be the coach for you!

If you are a young adult (18 or older) who:
- is ready to figure out what you WANT to do, not what you SHOULD do
- knows it’s time to figure out who you are outside of your labels
- wants to pursue what you’re passionate about but feels stuck
- feels frustrated communicating with your family
- is totally overwhelmed with the number of decisions you have to make, or
- wants to discuss what personal or professional growth looks like for you,
I might be the coach for you!

While I specialize in coaching parents and Gen Zers, I also have clients who don't fit into these categories. If you are interested in coaching, please reach out to me to discuss what you'd like to talk about and and what you want to get out of coaching.
