Transformational Coaching

What is Transformational Coaching?

I am glad you asked. My training is in transformational coaching that has its roots in neuro-linguistic programming (NLP). NLP works with neurological processes (neuro-), language (linguistic), and behavioral patterns learned through experience (programming) from the premise that these can be changed to achieve your goals in life.

Sounds like therapy.

How is transformational coaching different from traditional therapy?

  • Working with a client, not a patient
  • Understanding the meaning the client is making
  • Working in the present to help you create a compelling future
  • Assuming that the client is healthy and not broken
  • A partnership of equals where the coach encourages the client to find their own solutions
  • Helping the client to discover the process by which they prevent the achievement of goals and objectives and assists with learning new ways of thinking
  • Connecting into the past only to use as a framework for the present and to create the future
  • The possibility that changes can be fast and fun
  • The client’s responsibility for the outcomes and control over their results

Love Notes

The Adoration Project guided by Melissa Kelley is a beautiful invitation—not just to reconnect with yourself, but to fall in love with yourself. Melissa provided a beautiful and intimate group platform with relatable and powerful exercises (guided journaling, group discussions, and pair dialogues) that made it so easy and necessary to be grounded in devotion to myself and who I want to be. I'm so glad I committed to this in spite of the busy demands of my life.

Instead of letting family, work, and obligations be my EXCUSE NOT TO do this, I let all of the above precious parts of my life BE THE REASON I HAD TO do this work. And with Melissa and her magical, intuitive coaching, I was in the best hands possible. Thank you so much. Highly recommend.
