Frequently Asked Questions

What is Connected Coaching?

Connected Coaching is a powerful, safe, ongoing relationship that helps you connect with your feelings and needs and realize your visions and goals. Coaching is about self-responsibility. With a coach, you can get the tools and support to move through barriers and create the changes you want in your life.

How is Connected Coaching done?

Try it out with a free session! If you like what I do, to nurture yourself I ask for a 3 month commitment. We'll start with a 45 minute discovery session. Usually individual coaching is done by telephone or in person for four 30 minute or two 45 minute sessions a month. Talk with me about what works for you.

What is a typical session like?

We start by taking a breath together. You set the agenda for the call. You can expect deep listening, powerful questions, focused planning tools, and empowering accountability structures. As your coach, I’ll have high expectations of you and support you thoroughly in creating a life you love.

Is coaching like therapy?

Coaching is not therapy. Coaching focuses on supporting you in your personal growth. Although many find it can be therapeutic, coaches regularly refer clients to other professionals for issues that are better suited to a therapeutic relationship.

Coaching testimonials

"After two powerful sessions with Debbie I have quit my job to focus full-time on the work that I love. Debbie is supportive and authentic, and asks all of the right questions. Wonderful ideas spontaneously blossom during our conversations, and then they come into being in joyful, inspiring ways.

"Debbie's training in Compassionate Communication greatly enhances our sessions, as she reminds me to get to the heart of my feelings and needs. I highly recommend Debbie's coaching for anyone who is ready to take action now to change their life and manifest their deepest desires."

~ ZLP, Health Coach/Massage Therapist

"The best thing about Debbie is that she listens. She never tells me what she thinks I should do; she simply reminds me of what I think I should do. She is 100% supportive of me. Even when I think I'm a schmuck, she is loving and peaceful and centered, and moves to how best I can proceed from where I am now. She has no agenda except to support mine (and help me to create one.)"

~ JG, Musician
