Let’s make work worth it.Make your career move with clarity and purpose.
Whether you’re changing direction, growing into a leadership role, or helping a team work better together, we’ll identify what matters, address what’s getting in the way, and build a practical plan you can act on.
You’re good at what you do. You’d just like to give a damn about it again.
Maybe your career looks successful but no longer feels like yours. Maybe you’ve stepped into a bigger role and find yourself second-guessing how you lead. Or perhaps your team is doing plenty of work, but the same tensions and competing priorities keep slowing everyone down.
The goal is to stop circling the problem and start making deliberate choices. Through our work, you can understand what needs to change, trust your judgment, and move forward with a clearer sense of direction—on your own or together as a team.
Let’s do this thingLess spinning. More plotting. Actual moving.
Ways to work together
Career Alignment Coaching
Find a direction that fits your strengths, your life, and your financial reality—and build the confidence to pursue it.
For accomplished professionals who know their current work no longer fits but aren’t sure what should come next.
Over six months, we clarify what you need, identify the value you bring, research and test realistic paths, and turn what you learn into a plan. You’ll leave knowing what you’re pursuing, how to talk about your experience, and how to keep moving when the path is uncertain.
-
A deep audit of your strengths, energizers, accomplishments, and sources of dissatisfaction
Three to five career non-negotiables to guide your decisions
Support to define and communicate your professional value
Research, networking, and small experiments to test possible directions
A plan that accounts for your priorities and financial needs
Coaching, tools, feedback, and accountability as you put the plan into action
Executive Alignment Coaching
Lead with greater confidence, strengthen your influence, and define success on your own terms.
For professionals in mid-level, senior, and executive roles who want to be more effective in the role they have now.
We begin by examining what is and isn’t working, then build a focused action plan around your leadership goals. Over four to six months, you’ll put that plan into practice, strengthen the relationships that matter, and develop a more grounded way to lead.
-
An audit of your current role, challenges, strengths, and opportunities
Clear goals and a tailored leadership action plan
Coaching on confidence, imposter syndrome, and the stories shaping how you show up
A strategy for strengthening key relationships and your internal reputation
Success measures that reflect both your responsibilities and your priorities
Four to six months of support, with a cadence tailored to the engagement
Team Retreats & Workshops
Work through what’s getting in the way and get your team moving toward the same goals.
For leadership teams, departments, and intact teams that need space to address friction, clarify priorities, and work better together.
I design a retreat or series of facilitated sessions around your team’s needs, then provide ongoing coaching to help you carry the work into daily practice. Your team leaves with shared language, clearer agreements, and tangible goals for the next quarter.
-
Preparation with leaders and key stakeholders to understand the team’s goals and challenges
A custom-length retreat or series of facilitated working sessions
Guided conversations about values, expectations, communication, and conflict
Shared priorities, quarterly goals, and clear ownership of next steps
A written summary and action plan
Ongoing coaching and check-ins to support implementation and adjust as the team learns
Before we figure out what’s next, let’s figure out what matters.
You know how to get things done. But when was the last time you paused to ask whether all that effort is taking you somewhere you want to go?
Whether you’re rethinking your career, finding your footing as a leader, or bringing your team together, we start by making room for the questions that get buried under meetings, deadlines, and “this is how we’ve always done it.”
Then we turn that understanding into action through three stages: Clarify, Position, and Align.
-
Figure out what “better” actually looks like.
Before we solve the problem, we make sure we understand it. We explore what energizes you, what matters, what you’ve outgrown, and which expectations are ready for retirement. We look at strengths, relationships, patterns, and practical constraints—including budgets, responsibilities, and life outside work.
For individuals, that means defining what you bring and testing possible directions. For teams, it means understanding what each person contributes and agreeing on what you’re working toward. You leave with clear priorities and criteria for what needs to change.
-
Make what matters understood.
Clarity becomes useful when you can communicate it. We turn what you’ve learned into language, conversations, and relationships that help you move forward.
That might mean explaining your value beyond your current job title, finding your voice as a leader, or helping a team get clear about roles, expectations, and how to work together. We practice the conversations that matter, test how your message lands, and build the connections and support needed to make progress.
-
Make choices you can stand behind—and follow through on.
Now we put your priorities to work. We evaluate opportunities, decisions, and ways of working against what matters most and what’s financially and practically possible.
You might choose a career direction, reshape your leadership approach, or create shared commitments for your team. We work on asking for what you need, making thoughtful tradeoffs, and turning decisions into action—with support to make the changes stick.

A few things you might be wondering
Career and leadership decisions can affect your income, relationships, and sense of self. You deserve straight answers before deciding whether we should work together.
-
I work with professionals and leaders across industries. Our work centers on your strengths, priorities, and next steps, while taking your field’s expectations and constraints seriously. If you’re considering a new industry, we’ll identify what you need to learn and how to gather that information through research, conversations, and practical experiments.
-
If you’re asking, “What do I want to do next?” start with Career Alignment Coaching. If you want to feel more effective in the leadership role you have, look at Executive Alignment Coaching. If your team needs to work through tension and agree on a direction, Team Alignment is for you. If it’s not obvious, we’ll talk it through.
-
Absolutely not. “I know this isn’t working, but I can’t tell you what would” is a perfectly good place to start. We’ll get curious, look for patterns, and find a useful next step.
-
I’ll tell you honestly what I’m noticing, ask the questions that matter, and help you examine the tradeoffs. I won’t make the decision for you. The point is to strengthen your judgment so you can make choices you trust.
-
Then we take that seriously. Financial realities are part of the design, not an inconvenient detail to wish away. We might explore changes within your current role, research a new direction while you’re employed, or test an idea before you commit to it.
-
No. It wouldn’t be honest—or ethical—to promise an outcome that depends on hiring decisions I don’t control. I can help you get clear on what you’re pursuing, communicate your value, build relationships, and take more focused action. We’ll also look carefully at opportunities so the goal isn’t simply to land a job, but to make a move that fits.
-
I’ve led teams, worked with founders, and made significant career changes of my own. I’m also a therapist. I bring that combination to the practical work of career and leadership decisions: strategy, relationships, positioning, and action, alongside an understanding of the identity questions that can make change feel so complicated. I’ll listen closely, tell you what I see, and help you test your ideas in real life.
-
We work together until you’ve made meaningful progress on the goals we set, which generally takes four to six months. Change can be messy. You’ll try things, learn what works, and sometimes need to rethink the plan. I’m here for the whole ride, not just the exciting first step.
-
Very often, yes. Employers may fund coaching when it supports your development, effectiveness, or success in a current or future role. We can help you frame the request around goals that matter to both you and your organization. Before we begin, we’ll be clear about the scope of the work, who is paying, and what—if anything—will be shared with your employer.
-
No. My clinical training informs how I listen, but coaching and therapy serve different purposes. Our work together will focus on your career, leadership, or team goals. If what you need falls outside that scope, I’ll say so and help you think about the right kind of support.
Let’s make work worth itStop circling and start moving.
Change is hard. I know that firsthand.
Whether you’re rethinking your career, finding your footing as a leader, or helping a team move forward, I’ll take the time to understand what you’re facing. We’ll name what matters, make a plan that fits your real life, and work through the messy parts together—so you can move toward what’s next with clarity and confidence.
