About Me

I partner with clients in a dynamic process to increase personal and professional potential. I help clients overcome their blind spots using a methodology developed over ten years focused on understanding why clients are doing what they are doing, rather than just changing their actions. Shifting their mindset often creates a whole new realm of actions from which to choose which can then provide a different, more desirable result. Read more

How it works

Much of my work with clients is based on the premise that if you understand how your brain really works, you might be able to change a lot of things in your life. Figuring out why you think and do what you do could be the start to finding a path that would actually be better for you; A methodology to break patterns in behavior that are unproductive and get a better understanding of why other people think and do what they do.

What drives people

I believe how we think, feel, and act is actually driven by how our two million year old hunter-gatherer brains work. So much of what controls and limits us today is governed by how our modern day brains have adapted or failed to adapt to modern day circumstances. In the simplest of terms, the hunter-gatherers didn’t deal with much nuance. The hunter-gatherer wasn’t trying to climb up an elaborate Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. Their existence was singularly focused on survival and the proper identification of what was or wasn’t a threat – and then whether to fight or flee. Read more

My Process

 

I partner with clients in a dynamic process to increase personal and professional potential. I help clients overcome their blind spots using a methodology developed over ten years focused on understanding why clients are doing what they are doing, rather than just changing their actions. Shifting their mindset often creates a whole new realm of actions from which to choose which can then provide a different, more desirable result.

I help clients reframe and then overcome their challenges through understanding and then redirecting the key stories that create patterns in their lives that compel them towards unproductive thoughts and behaviors. In my process, we embark upon an exploration of who you are, why you are that way and who you might become.

My experience coaching all levels of individuals has led to the development of core theories about how people operate: what motivates them, what traps and thwarts them and what ultimately drives them to success.

We unravel why the client does what they do and reconstruct their thoughts and actions so they can fundamentally change to improve their performance and help them get more power, control and influence over the results they get in their own lives as well as those of others around them. I guide clients in understanding themselves in a fundamentally different way, which involves comprehending the deeply embedded internal stories that drive most everything they think and do. By doing this, over time they can gain the power to work with these stories, deconstruct them and then reconstruct them to achieve better results in their lives.
