The burden is on you to fit everything in place and not only is the guidance for that lacking – it’s treated as unimportant.
Personal growth shouldn’t be this painful and it’s why evidence-based techniques consider the individual as much they do the solution.
The advice you've tried has left you lost.
Despite all the strategies and methods, your intentions to grow always fall short.
But instead of blaming the advice for failing on it’s promise, we tend to blame ourselves. Why?
Because when advice isn’t made with you in mind, it assumes you meet it's hidden requirements. You’re left alone to fit everything in place and not only is the guidance for that lacking, it’s treated as unimportant.
There is no one-size-fits-all for the psychology of change. That's why when advice gets sold as if there is, it's easy to think the thing that's broken is you.
Nothing leads to the change you’re looking for. Mindsets, routines, strategies; they all fall short.
But instead of blaming the method for failing on it’s promise, often we blames ourselves. Why?
Because when advice isn’t made with you in mind, it isn’t acknowledging the hidden conditions.
"You stand out in how well you tie goals back to the principles so that everything clicks. I got more out of the first two weeks with you than I did in six months with who I worked with before."
- Andrew Philipson
"You actually help me understand why I act the way I do. I always hoped to get from therapy and self-help stuff, but never really did."
- Trish Taylor
Personalized solutions not only ensure efficacy, but that you’ll actually use what you learn. Instead of hearing ‘It works as long as you do it’, your resistance is part of the equation.
Nothing outperforms the ability to adapt
Gain skills for Action,
Awareness, & Accountability.
Transforming your behavior and mindset starts by treating self-awareness like a map to the methods that work.
I turn that into a clear process. You'll gain insight into your own barriers and psychology-backed solutions that have been tailored to make sense for you.
From teaching skills to leading you to that ‘aha’ moment, everything comes from the years I’ve spent doing academic research into the science.
More than just ensuring you’ll have the best approach; you get help implementing it. We all have blind spots when stuck in our own head and thrive under social accountability.
No 'top method' will beat the ability to adapt.
Transforming your behavior and attitude starts by treating self-awareness as a map to the methods that work.
My coaching turns that into a practical process by helping lead you to key insights and connecting them to tools from psychology, tailored to your size.
From learning skills to exploring ideas for that ‘Aha’ moment, my coaching method has been built through years of academic research in psychology.

No. Life Coaches typically rely on personal experiences and beliefs to offer advice without any particular education or training.
Coaching can be thought of as someone using their expertise to teach or guide performance. My expertise is in behavioral, social, and cognitive psychology.
But if we’re being frank.
'Coach' is an unprotected title and it's variations are about marketing more than anything. My method is one I personally researched and developed which you can learn about here. It adapts from many theories and represents me individually in a way that is largely independent of coaching itself.
Yes.
I'm a Canadian but can work with people all over the world. Coaching sessions are done over video conference (Microsoft Teams) and I process payments via PayPal which accepts cards internationally.
Therapy is better suited for emotional safety and support. That can be especially important when processing difficult experiences or feelings that need a safe place to be expressed. Therapy is also specialized to help with specific disorders.
My coaching is focused on goals, strategies, motivation, and self-awareness. It has tools for both managing mood and anxieties as well optimizing your approach towards an ambitious goal or change.
If you’re ready to openly discuss your situation (confidentially), my coaching teaches skills and offers insight on mental health topics you may associate with therapy. For some, that's a better fit.
If not, my style may feel too confrontational. I don’t act as a licensed mental health professional or use trauma-informed / pathological approaches. I also do not work with high-risk individuals or minors.Significant results can be seen in just two sessions with a plan-and-review that teaches key skills which last into the future. It can also take several months.
Why is that range so extreme? Because the range of goals and challenges we all face is extreme. Promises like ‘Get disciplined in 14 days’ are appealing, but irresponsible, and can't be made without knowing your unique situation.
The good news? That doesn’t mean you’ll need an unknown amount of time to make the same progress; it's about seeing progress as building the foundations you’d suffer for trying to skip. Real ambition is being realistic. Instead of chasing short cuts that cost us down the road, we have the flexibility to find the quickest and most sustainable path to success.
Your consultation call is free, where after we continue with paid full-length sessions which last 45 minutes. Each session costs $65 USD which includes email support and session planning. No upfront commitments, just pay as you go.
This question is why consultations are free and without commitment. They exist to help us confirm the fit and never involve a hard sales pitch.
If you relate to the topics mentioned here but are still weighing options or wondering if it's worth it, I encourage you to simply be curious and book one. You can also submit a message for simpler questions.
