COACHING BACKGROUND:
Certified Transactional Analysis Practitioner
Transactional Analysis is a form of social psychology that looks at how we communicate with others, as well as within ourselves. Communication is a key part of any media interview, not only with the other person and the audience, but in terms of our internal dialogue, which translates to our confidence and the energy we project to the outside world.
Certified Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) Practitioner
NLP examines the structure of our experience through sensory modalities, thought patterns, and the use of language. By understanding the structure of our experiences, we can change them to create new ways of being in the world that serve us better than old ones. NLP has roots in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and hypnotherapy.
Voice Dialogue Advanced Facilitator
When we say things like “Part of me really wants to do that media interview, but part of me feels really shy and scared”, we are illustrating the different aspects (or ‘parts’) of ourselves that we all have within us. Voice Dialogue is one method of working with these parts to give each one a voice – uninterrupted by the other parts – so that we can tap into the resources that each has to offer. This also allows us to gain conscious awareness of which ‘part’ is running the show at any given time so that we have more choice of which part we want to be in. This kind of awareness and choice are invaluable in all areas of life: personal relationships, business, public appearances, and our own relationship with ourselves.
Certified Hypnotherapist
Hypnotherapy involves the use of conscious and subconscious communication, including both verbal and body language. It also looks at how the different ‘parts’ of ourselves interact with each other, and by communicating with these parts in a coaching session inner conflict can be resolved, confidence can be restored, and internal blocks can be dissolved.
