I have experience and training as both a therapist and a certified life coach. I specialize in working with girls and young women, empowering them to reach their goals and become confident leaders. Though I bring my experience and training as a therapist to my classes, I am not providing mental health therapy.
Neurodivergent and/or students with unique learning needs are welcome and encouraged to join! These skills are critical to help practice social skills in a safe environment. I am happy to cater instruction to the needs of the learners.
Coaching and therapy serve different, distinct purposes. Coaching for children typically revolves around personal development, skill-building, and goal achievement, with a focus on enhancing a student's potential and capabilities. Coaches work to empower kids, fostering a positive mindset and encouraging them to take responsibility for their actions. In contrast, therapy for kids concentrates on addressing emotional and behavioral challenges. Therapists explore underlying issues, provide coping strategies, and promote mental health. Therapy is often more directive, involving interventions to help children navigate and overcome specific psychological difficulties. While coaching aims at maximizing potential, therapy for kids is geared towards emotional well-being and resolving issues that may hinder healthy development. If during our coaching groups I feel further mental health evaluation would be beneficial for your student, I will inform you immediately. If sensitive subject matter such as (but not limited to): clinically significant anxiety or depression, sexuality, drugs/alcohol, or self-harm are brought up, I will not engage these conversations during class and I will send a message to you immediately after class.
