DESIGNING YOUR CHANGE
How Can Coaching Help Me?

Have you ever had someone listen to you share your goals and dreams with total focus, curiosity, and objectivity and share their perspective from an unbiased point of view that left you inspired, excited, and full of actionable momentum?

What would that do for you?

* Do you feel like you need a change but don't know where or how to start? 

* Do you find yourself constantly dreaming of your goals and never quite reaching them? 

* Do you feel like there's something else/something more you're supposed to be doing? 

* Is self-sabotage a pattern for you? 

* Have you spent money on the latest trends, books, tapes, and seminars, only to lose momentum after
   a while or no better off than before--or worse?

If you answered YES to any of these questions, help is just a click away!

Customized Services
No two people are the same. A "cookie cutter" approach to helping you change what you want to change will probably fail. Haven't you been there before?

I offer a free consultation (in person or by phone) to gather information about your individual goals, needs, and situation to make a better assessment about the number of sessions, tools, and timeframe I would recommend to help you achieve the results you're looking for, along with the fee options I offer (as little as $25/session and no more than $100/session).

My services include coaching, hypnosis, NLP and other powerful subconscious improvement techniques, nutrition education, and other resources and techniques that I feel would best suit your needs as we work together.

Coaching sessions (30-45 minutes) can be conducted over the phone or in person (depending upon client's location and schedule).

Call or email me today for your free consultation, or take my "Are You Coachable?" quiz above and you could WIN a free 30-minute coaching session with me!

Better yet, complete the
form and I'll send you my free 9-day email course, "25 Sure-Fire Ways to Motivate Yourself" and add you to my inspirational and informational "Healthy You!" e-zine. If you're in the Virginia Beach area, you can schedule a free, live consultation with me.

Hypnosis is a perfectly safe, relaxing technique that can benefit anyone. It is simply a focused state of awareness. This accesses the ultimate means of heightening motivation by programming your subconscious (reflective) mind to work in cooperation with your conscious (reactive) mind to achieve desired results. 

You're already familiar with hypnosis, although you may not realize it. You go through this altered state of consciousness at least twice a day--when you are crossing over into sleep and when you are waking up. People who do not understand hypnosis are often wary or skeptical of it. They think of it as entertainment, magic, or some mystical form of control. In reality, meditation, yoga, prayer, and repetitive/focused tasks result in the same altered state of awareness. Anyone who can concentrate for a few moments and use their imagination can learn self-hypnosis. Kids are great at it!

Examples of situations best suited to hypnosis only:
Smoking/tobacco cessation; preparing for surgical/dental procedures, fears & phobias; nail biting, hair pulling, and other annoying habits.

Although hypnotic receptivity, reaction, and feedback can be better monitored when conducted in person (and would be required in cases such as substance dependency), I can discuss your needs over the phone (30 minutes) and make a personalized CD recording to send to you, which would include information specific to your needs, values, processing systems, and motivation for change.

Other Services Provided

NeuroLinguistic Programming (NLP)

   NLP is the science of understanding and changing the way the brain stores, processes, and responds to information. A familiar example of a more simple NLP technique is imagining an audience in their underwear to make them seem less threatening. NLP techniques can be used alone or woven into coaching sessions or hypnotic suggestion to shift your perception or emotional/conditioned responses. It is a very powerful (yet fun) tool for change.
