Why Coaching?

Whether you are

  • struggling with anxiety, procrastination, or unhealthy habits

  • navigating career or relationship challenges

  • tired of repeating the same mistakes

  • needing better boundaries

  • simply wanting more out of your life but aren't sure what it is

Because skillfully focusing on your life opens it up to change and possibility

Coaching is taking responsibility for your life

(and sometimes it's just good to have someone to talk things through with)

taking the time to inquire into your life will create new opportunities for growth

What can you expect?

  • to be truly listened to

  • to be asked lots of questions

  • to learn new things about yourself

  • to step outside your comfort zone (that is where growth occurs)

  • to increase your capacity and skills

  • to be referred on if your trauma, or mental health concerns

    are beyond my scope of practice

  • to be more connected to your body, feelings, and intuition,

  • to laugh

    - change is as much about play and joyful expansion as it is serious

What not to expect

  • Advice

    I don't know what is best for your life, but I can help you discover the next step.

  • To be analyzed, diagnosed, or judged

    My job is to help you generate your own understanding, not to give you mine

  • Quick fixes

    While there are insights and breakthroughs, real change comes from applying those insights in your daily life

Why work with me?

Because I have done this work myself.

I have worked at:

  • Resolving inner conflict

  • Uncovering and integrating difficult emotions

  • Shifting conditioned attitudes and beliefs of what is possible

  • Changing addictive patterns

  • Being grounded and hopeful in stressful times

And I am still doing this work.

Still learning.

Still growing.

And...

Because I am trained

  • BA in Psychology

  • Trauma informed

  • Certified Embodiment Coach

  • Certified IFS Informed Practitioner

  • Training as a Certified Focusing Professional

And...

I have practiced meditation for over thirty years, sat in numerous ceremonies and sweat lodges, and am widely read in psychology and spiritual traditions.

"What is constant throughout is his ability to use strategic silence as effectively as he does mirroring back to me my own expressions of thought and feeling.

He guides without over-guiding — it’s almost as if he can read what I am silently processing, and can sense the right moment to step in with a word, a reflection, a question, an encouragement forward.

A year ago I had the good fortune to work with Mark.

I was seeking ways to become more grounded and clear around boundaries and decision-making.

Mark is passionate about the work he shares and shows up in an open and non judgemental way making space for whatever comes up in a session.

I always felt safe and with Mark's encouragement was able to step a little further out of my comfort zone.

The grounding practices created the sense of calm I was looking for and the embodiment techniques helped with my confidence and resolve.

I look forward to working with Mark again in the future.
