This is my how

I expect this dynamic & highly personal experience to be nothing less than a  game-changer for you. We will discuss your individual coaching needs if you want to see if it’s a good fit. (Let’s face it, we will be interviewing each other.) My work entails aspects of rational emotive behavioral therapy, shadow work & habit restructuring. I also strongly believe in using a sense of humor to facilitate this transformative process.

So…buckle up buttercup!!

This Is My Why…..

See below for testimonials from my awesome clients.

“Kate provided a safe space to be myself and open up about my issues. She is not just a keen listener; she asked me powerful questions that made me realize my issues. I never knew what nurse coaching was all about at first, but having this kind of experience with Kate changed my view- about mindset and some other issues that were addressed. There is such a power in talking to someone as long as you are placed in a safety container. Overall, with our sessions, I felt seen and heard, allowing me to be the real me.”  – S.A. Portland, OR

 

“Kate has a vibrant and authentic coaching style. She is incredibly skilled at identifying old stories we tell ourselves and patterns that keep us from moving forward. Her candid presence is very nourishing. She is insightful and willing to go there in the darkness with you regardless of what you bring to the table. I wholeheartedly recommend kate as a coach.” – H.B. -Boston, MA

 

“Kate is a curious listener. I say this because one can be a good listener without interrupting, but being curious requires understanding what you hear and then asking more questions to reveal what’s happening. During our coaching sessions, Kate’s curious listening helped me to come up with ideas I had not considered. She is approachable, authentic, and warm, which made me open up to her and feel effortless. Kate provided tools and light homework to help me move toward my goal. I am pleased with the outcome of our work together.” – N.G Bend, OR

“Working with Kate has been a transformative experience.  Her coaching and guidance have helped with my procrastination and boosted my confidence in building my business despite being overwhelmed in life.  Kate possesses a unique ability to inspire and motivate, making her an invaluable coach to me and everyone.  I am deeply grateful for the personalized coaching and support that have helped me grow personally and professionally.  I highly recommend Kate to anyone who needs inspiration to break toxic habits and old patterns.  Also, anyone who needs the supportive coaching to rebuild and transform their life.”- C.M.  L.A. California

 

“Kate is an amazing coach. She has helped me through many transitions. Her energy is contagious, and she has a fresh, NO BS perspective that will help you see through your barriers to reach your goals.”  M.N.  – Sacramento, CA

 

“Kate has a true gift for holding space for another human. I went into this space unsure of what I had to talk about. Within twenty minutes of my first session, it became obvious that this would be an impactful experience. Kate has the uncanny ability to sit with another and simultaneously provide comfort while telling the truth- and sometimes, the truth is hard to hear. After a short time with Kate, I emerged with a newfound confidence within myself and a deeper understanding of the need to have grace for myself. She also pushed me to get off the sidelines and step into my life.”  – B. V. Wilmington, DE

“Kate is honest, funny, and super easy to talk to. She makes you want to spill your guts! Just hearing myself say stuff out loud caused a huge shift in my perspective. Kate challenged me without feeling confrontational. Great experience”.

D.E. Omaha, Nebraska

“When I first reached out to Kate, I was stuck in a pattern of active addiction and self-destructive behaviors. The decision to reach out was a catalyst for change, and Kate was grounded and genuinely caring, the perfect person to guide me through my stuck-ness. I think the greatest gift I received was to be able to see myself more clearly and accept my disability rather than fight it, which has allowed me infinitely more grace with myself. I had no prior experience with coaching and no specific expectations when I reached out to Kate, and what resulted is amazing- something shifted in me. I started to hold myself accountable, to take care of myself, to be the person I had needed all along. I have learned to intervene in my own negative thought cycles and to question my beliefs when my emotions are deregulated, keeping me from acting in the moment and allowing me to live a fuller life. Before I decided to take action with my life and try coaching, I was in the middle of the long process of seeking disability because I was not functional enough to work, and my life was getting smaller and falling apart around me (and I’ve had decades of therapy and treatment including inpatient). Now, ten weeks later, I am over two months clean and full-time employed with a job I legitimately didn’t think I was good enough for before. I recommend Kate to anyone who feels stuck in a self-destructive cycle, who yearns to meet their potential but keeps denying themselves the opportunity, or who is ready for a personal paradigm shift. Kate is really easy to talk to; it is worth reaching out!” – R. M. – Olympia, WA

“I am a doctoral-level clinical psychologist and have referred clients to Kate who have benefited from her work with them.  I highly value her directness and her decades of experience in health care. She is open about her own journey of recovery, and people find her to be a breath of fresh air.” – Dr. Stacy Shaw Welch, PhD  Seattle, WA
