Why Academic Life Coaching?

I remember being a teen and having that uncertain feeling about the future, I was honestly so afraid to make a wrong decision that I changed my major several times and cost myself thousands!  As an adult I tried to solve this problem for others by spending some time in the clinical psychology arena, but I did not like how it was diagnostic/treatment based and not forward moving.  A lot of teens don’t need a treatment plan, they need support and someone to bring out the best in them!   As I now watch my own kiddos navigating all the various pressures and life events placed upon them this age, I can see the value when a youth has a strong support team that helps them navigate life’s challenges, hurdles, and pressures and thus I fell in love with coaching.

What is great about Southern Oregon?

What I love most about this town is that my entire family lives here therefore we get to spend a lot of quality time together.   My second love is that the mountains, rivers, lakes and ski resort are all within minutes of each other, it is a very beautiful area with local artists, theaters, hiking trails and unique shopping all at your fingertips.
