Individual Coaching
I help my clients establish objectives, formulate a plan for achieving those objectives, and identify cycles the client is locked into. At least 12 coaching hours will be needed to dissemble the internal unconscious programming that prevents success.
I believe there are three reasons individuals don’t already have the life they want.
1. They don’t know what they want,
2. They don’t believe they deserve what the want, and
3. They are stuck in an automatic, unconscious cycle that generates what they are getting now.
Identifying what they want happens in a coaching conversation. I am well-trained and experienced in the IFS model (I am a Certified IFS Practitioner) and provide therapeutic coaching as needed to address unworkable and disempowering beliefs. Breaking out of unconscious cycles requires first being aware of the cycle.
To measure fit, I help my clients address their beliefs about what they deserve and what they are capable of. In this conversation, both the client and coach make a determination about whether my inter family systems coaching program is a good fit or if the client is better served with a season of therapy to heal the past and develop more Self-leadership - the ability to access innate resources and qualities that help with self-regulation and to be present/future focused.
Clients who are a good fit for me have developed (or wish to develop) enough Self-leadership to take on future-focused coaching objectives.
When the parts of our internal family (see www.IFS-Institute.com) feel threatened by the changes required to achieve coaching objectives such as improved outcomes in life, they react in organized ways to keep things safe and predictable. These internal reactions (the strategies that our protectors employ and the reactions of our vulnerable exiles) are great trailheads to pursue using the IFS model.
By understanding the strategies of internal protectors, IFS helps us resolve aspects of the incomplete past which frees our parts up to help us live a contented and fulfilled life.
But if these parts are too deeply entrenched to allow change, therapy or therapeutic coaching is indicated before future focused coaching can be pursued. The first few coaching sessions reveal the client’s capacity to pursue future-focused coaching objectives. If the unresolved past is stopping progress, I recommend that we focus on developing Self-leadership before attempting to accomplish a coaching objective. As an IFS-trained practitioner I have undergone internal family systems training, But, in cases of extreme trauma, referral to a therapist may be indicated.
When it is clear that the client would benefit from some time in therapy, I recommend therapists who can help them heal their past before returning to me for results-focused coaching.
