My Approach | Study Yourself™ Practice 

Study Yourself™

My work is grounded in the practice of self-study through reflective writing. Through guided reflection, you'll discover patterns you didn't know you had, process what you've sacrificed, and create what's possible next.

Why reflective writing?

High achievers often spend years living in their heads: planning, strategizing, and performing. Writing helps you reconnect to your body, your emotions, and your authentic voice underneath all the conditioning.

"When you're writing, you're trying to find out something which you don't know. The whole language of writing for me is finding out what you don't want to know, what you don't want to find out. But something forces you to anyway."
— James Baldwin

The power of reflective writing is that it reveals what you've been avoiding, what you've been too busy to feel, and what it's cost you to get here.

The Methodology I Use

I blend the Hudson Coaching Methodology with my Study Yourself™ practice to honor you as a whole person, not just your goals and accomplishments. Through guided reflective writing and experiential learning, I help you recognize patterns, pause old behaviors, reflect on what you've sacrificed, realign with your values, and reinvent what's possible. This process helps you study yourself with honesty, integrate what you discover, and take aligned action that reflects who you're becoming.

My Training & Credentials

I'm an ACC-certified coach through the International Coaching Federation and a certified coach through the Hudson Institute of Coaching. The ACC credential requires rigorous training (60+ hours), mentor-supervised coaching experience (100+ hours), and adherence to ICF's ethical standards. This ensures that our work together is grounded in professional coaching competencies, confidentiality, and a commitment to your growth and autonomy.
