Welcome... I'm Lara, your family coach!
I offer multiple types of coaching services, training, and presentations:
Life coaching for youth, adolescents, and adults.
Parent coaching for adults.
Relationship coaching for youth, adolescents, and adults.
Sessions can be scheduled in flexible configurations including individuals, pairs, or small groups depending on your goals and circumstances.
I also offer group coaching for individuals who come to me expressing interest in working toward similar areas of change or growth. And, I provide training and presentations to parents, civic, and other interested organizations on a variety of topics.
Reach out as soon as you know you're interested so I can individualize group coaching packages and training/presentations to your needs.
Discover your strengths, what’s meaningful to you and your family, and how to make your relationships a lasting reality!
Join me to help your family flourish! WHAT IS A FLOURISHING FAMILY, you may ask?
A flourishing family is one where every individual
- is happy, satisfied, and engaged,
- has multiple positive relationships,
- believes in personal growth,
- displays mastery and/or achievement, and
- lives a life of meaning and purpose!
I help each member and the group as a whole thrive spiritually, physically, intellectually, relationally, and emotionally. We trust, respect, and honor one another, our similarities, and differences. And we work together to model what this unity of purpose can offer not only ourselves, but the rest of society.
What to expect while working with me
Coaching is a collaboration. My goal as your coach is to do whatever I can to help you live a happier, fuller life. Together, we will work through the CHANGE process, encouraging you to discover and further explore your values, positive experiences, and resources; committing to important new learning; growing your confidence, hope, and motivation; and flourishing in your new accomplishments.
COMMITMENT
First, we CLARIFY your wants and needs. I listen to your story, ask powerful questions, and encourage you to build the personal insight and HOPE necessary to tackle your dreams. You are now committing to putting in the work that will allow you to make the changes you desire.
Growth
Next, we ACTIVATE your goals. You plan for the steps necessary to achieve your goals. I empower you to identify and capitalize on your strengths as we NAVIGATE any challenges together.
Flourishing
Once you’ve planned for the change you want, it’s time to GO FOR IT. You work toward your goals while I facilitate further learning. We end with a free closure session where we review the skills, strengths, and resources you’ve developed. We discuss ways for you to EXPAND upon and sustain your heightened levels of self-efficacy, independence, success, and happiness.
