Leadership & Transformational coaching
Coaching entails meeting clients where they are at,
no matter how hard or complicated their reality might be.
Through compassion, strength, patience & courage, coaching can bring discernment, clarity, connection & alignment to clients:
It renews & reinvigorates their ability to move with purpose.
Working Together
1st step is a free info session to determine:
- If we are a good match
- Determine your goals/direction for our work together.
- Build the initial container
By the end of that 1st meeting, you will have a clear idea of what a collaboration could look like, the overarching frame, the frequency, the fees.
The Methods
I am a Certified Transformational & Leadership Coach specialized & trained in the Internal Family System (IFS), Non-Violent Communication, Dream Work, Breath Work & more.
My method of coaching resides in a combination of these psycho-spiritual modalities that are transformative, evidence-based & deeply empowering & healing. (Nothing magical thinking here: spirituality here means depth).
No diagnostic here: each client is at the center of their transformation as the best agent of their own transformation.
Who are my Clients?
Anyone who is ready to do deep work & who is looking for someone to be by their sides
No matter how challenging the situation.
*For individuals younger than 30 years old, no previous coaching or therapy is required.
*For anyone older, a foundation is preferred.
Case by case will be considered.

FAQ
How do you identify?
I am a white-body cisgender woman.
I use she/her as pronouns.
Do you work with retainers?
No, I do not impose retainers on my clients.
During our initial conversation, we will set up a frequency that feels appropriate for the work ahead & it is up to you, the client, to keep up with it to see changes (and secure your spot in my practice).
Do you have a sliding scale? If so, how does it work?
Yes, I do!
In order to balance my practice, I have different tiers & allocate a certain amount of clients to each tier. The fees are agreed upon during our 1st free intro session based on your ability & my availability.
Do you have credentials?
Yes I do!
I am a certified CPC coach (working on the ICF certification)
and a certified BreathWork partitioner.
How do we meet?
For the foreseeable future, through Zoom or Phone.
What is Internal Family System (IFS) coaching?
IFS is a powerful, transformative, evidence-based model of coaching (& psychotherapy).
It is a psycho-spiritual method developed by Richard Schwartz that believes
that the mind is naturally multiple, all our inner parts containing valuable qualities, and that our core Self is the healing agent for it all.
IFS is a powerful method to strengthen or re-harness self-leadership.
Do you only coach using the Internal Family System?
IFS informs a lot of my coaching and feels like a mother tongue to me but it is not the only method I can use.
We can discuss this during our initial intro session.
Are you "Trauma informed"?
Yes & No.
Yes because I did, and still do, spend a fair amount of my time
learning to develop my understanding & awareness to be able to
hold, acknowledge, recognize, step aside, step up and step down when
needed.
No, because I am not a licensed therapist & our work together can never replace a trauma-informed psychotherapy.
How do you create a "safe space"?
1st & foremost, confidentiality is key & all that we discuss is absolutely private.
Then, safety is something that we build based on your needs and levels of comfort. I can guarantee you that I will hold a brave space for you.
Where you can show up is where I will meet you equally.
You decide what works for you.
There is no magic formula, once fit all.
What is the difference between a licensed coach & a therapist?
Coaches are not trained to heal psychological problems & analyze the past.
Coaching looks towards creating a deeper engagement with the present & more desirable future.
Coaching is not therapy yet can be healing.
It can never be a substitute for psychotherapy.
I don't have a clear goal but want coaching - Am I at the right place?
If you are perusing my website, something is already bubbling up to the surface.
So yes, definitely schedule a free intro session and we will see what we can do together.
What if what we uncover during the coaching is too much for me to bear?
Coaching is not about pushing limits beyond a breaking point but rather understanding what is your support system & respecting your inner ecosystem.
Can you combine coaching & Breathwork?
Yes! One can work without the other, and the 2 combined are awesome.
I can guide you through it all to Taylor with you what could work the best for you.
What languages do you speak?
I am bilingual in English & French.
I am working to polish my Spanish to be able to speak as well as I understand it (so any portion that, as a client, you want to bring in Spanish, is welcome).
