Most of my coaching services are provided in support group format. At times, I offer a support group for a specific populations, and sometimes a few individuals working on a common goal seek my services as a psychologically informed facilitator. I offer coaching services through my own clinic as well as in collaboration with other non profit organizations. When provided to an individual, coaching services are meant to provide psychologically and spiritually informed guidance for a specific situation. Coaching services are not meant to provide diagnosis or support for mental illness, and are short term targeted services. Often times coaching services are useful when a person has already done the deep healing work in therapeutic setting and need short term services for a targeted goal.
We all have those pressing times when we need assistance for rational thinking until a storm passes. We just need a meeting or two with someone to help us manage situational stress. Consulting services are a very short term relationship, just for a meeting or two where you can sit with me, work on a specific matter, clear your head - or just blow off the steam until you get the feeling of 'I got this'.
I do not offer consulting services for more than 2 sessions. If you want longer services, it is therapy! You must sign therapy contract and paperwork. But I can tell you this much... if you think you need more than two sessions, then you probably do! My therapeutic services are there to help you with deep work that is healing and liberating.
Individual therapy has a lot of benefits. It provides time to give focused attention to our own needs and find healing for ourselves, without anyone else contributing their piece in our story. And then, there are times when we have healed enough and are ready to bond with others and work in a setting where we can get support to others and give them our support. These are the times when support groups are helpful. Support groups are a few individuals who are navigating same kind of life situations and come together in a psychologically guided healing circle to find ways to rise together. I frequently offer support group to people with a common goal. These groups will be advertised on the website and social media.
I offer parent workshops for organizations with a goal in mind. A few examples of such workshops can be for parents of neurodivergent children, parents of differently abled children, parent of single child, parents of new born, parents dealing with sibling rivalry etc.
Teaching is an honorable and dignified profession, but there is no denying that it leaves teachers feeling exhausted when they have to manage a class full of students with diverse backgrounds and needs. You can book me for teacher workshops for your school. A few examples of school presentations could be around supporting a diverse group of children when some have more pronounced sensory processing needs, or different ways to processing and expressing their feelings, or relating to others. I educate staff about the difference between biological and developmental age, and helping children in a way that is less exhausting for children and teachers.
All workshops are unique are are based on the need of the school staff. I send a questionnaire to the staff and ask for their specific needs to make sure I am providing them with the right tools based on the developmental level of their students. The minimum length of teacher workshop is 2 hours.
