Ethical Coaching &
Values Driven Business.

Proud member of the ETHICAL COACHING COLLECTIVE

After coaching for 15+ years, I finally found a certification that was aligned with my values and ethics standards.

I completed my certification in March of 2023. This certification is so badass that its curriculum is backed by the International Association of Counselors and Therapists, which I have a specialized certificate through.

How ethical coaching manifests in my work

  • You lead. We’ll never go somewhere you aren’t ready to go.

  • I coach you based on your values and how you want to see them come to life.

  • I read body and subtle cues well. Your body will often tell me before your words do, and I always honor that.

  • Everything is confidential unless you give me explicit permission to share.

  • My pricing is a win-win-win for you, me, and the collective.

My certification through the Ethical Coaching Collective means that I am fully committed to these
Vital Skills & Ethical Standards.

Vital Skills

I coach in a way that takes into account both the conscious and unconscious minds.

I have a basic functional understanding of how the brain and nervous systems work, and my coaching can effectively guide change through the interplay of mind and body.

I have a skillset that is evidence-based.

I coach in a non-hierarchical, client-centered way, empowering the client with the awareness and tools to direct their own path and change their own minds instead of creating a dependence on me. 

Ethical Standards

I do not coach without consent.

I do not sell coaching without consent.

In marketing and selling, I will treat people the way I would treat my clients: with respect, transparency, thoughtfulness, and genuine care for their well-being.

The best that anyone can be in our presence is our thoughts about them. I base all my work with clients in unconditional positive regard. If I cannot feel unconditional positive regard for someone (and that’s okay because I’m human), I refer them out to someone who can.

I understand that neither human development nor coaching happen in a social and political vacuum. I will be outspoken about my values and make business decisions that reflect them. I will never put profit above values. 

I believe in every human’s capacity for healing, change and growth, and the reality of miraculous quantum change, AND I do not bypass slow, steady, repeated work and cultivation of the grounded presence it takes to stay with things that take time.

I stay fiercely awake and present to pain and suffering inherent in life and the world, but I do not let it overwhelm me and stop me from believing in the magic and fun of coaching work.

I am open to all possibilities but am dogmatic about nothing.

I don’t do gurus. I don’t do cult-y thinking. I am the best authority on me, the client is the best authority on themselves, and I do not endorse outsourcing decision-making or responsibility for how we experience the world and create our reality to anyone else.

I would rather be curious than be right.

I do not aim to be a perfect practitioner or perfect human; I aim to learn, do a little better than yesterday, and have fun.
