Coach
St. Paul, 55118
As a Certified Youth Resilience Coach, I am deeply dedicated to supporting self-determination in young people. Through the study of adolescent psychology and the science of motivation, I have built a well-stocked toolkit for supporting young people as they search for purpose and strive for their own version of fulfillment. I deliver my coaching via a person-centered approach based on the Rise and Thrive Model, a research-based process developed and proven by the Youth Coaching Institute.
During my 15 years as a school psychologist, I witnessed the power of encouraging young people to determine their personal path. From monitoring their own growth, to setting their own goals, to having a voice in their educational programming, I saw firsthand what the research confirms:
Young people achieve more when they implement self-chosen strategies and strive toward goals they craft for themselves.
Through youth coaching, I have the great fortune of continuing my work with young people and their families on a much more personal basis. I love the process of helping young people get to know themselves, and of putting the power in their hands by supporting them as they move from functional to thriving.
