Coaching is a powerful and collaborative process between you and your coach that helps you learn about and understand your behavior, your natural strengths and capabilities, what gets in your way, and how to move forward with a clear plan of action so that you can be an even more powerful leader and build great teams. A coach is an objective and invested partner who walks with you through this process while you practice new skills, critical during challenging times or when you want or need to build new skills as a leader.

The first 30-minute session is complimentary so you and Joanne can decide if you’re a good match for each other.

They are different. Therapy focuses on the past and on emotional issues to help you understand yourself better. Coaching focuses on your present situation, on understanding what you can do right now to create the future you want. Many of Joanne’s clients have worked with a therapist in the past, or currently do. She supports anything you do to become aware of yourself and your strengths, and to understand what issues block you from having the success you really want.
