Personal Life Transition Coaching

Individuals come to coaching for a variety of reasons; but, primarily they fit into one of three categories:
  • Fufillment - wanting a fullfilling life & career
  • Balance - wanting to find the right mix
  • Process - going through a life change

Fufillment Coaching

We find that people can't always put their finger on it; but, they just know that there has to be more to life. It may just be a stage of life or it may be precipitated by a life event. Nevertheless, when you start to get that feeling that there must be more to your life, you are likely ready for fulfillment coaching.

Balance Coaching

In today's high-speed world where we tend to overeat at the buffet of life, balance seems to be a state we all want to achieve but just can't seem to.

In balance coaching, you will come to view yourself as being in the driver's seat of your life. You will come to understand that balance is not a place you arrive at ~ it's an ever changing place that requires fine tuning along the journey. You will come to understand the 7-Step Life Balance formula and continue to be able to apply it through all of the phases of your life.

Process Coaching

There may be times in your life that you find yourself in the rapids of your life. Navigating the rapids can be exhilarating and/or exhausting. The rapids may be small or they may be larger than life. Life often throws us unexpected curves and we need to be able to navigate these transitions.

By taking control of your process through process coaching, you will start to be able to navigate your river of life. Together with your coach as your guide, you will become focused on your destination regardless of the obstacles.

Hi, I'm Sophie and I've made significant and bold changes in my life both personally and professionally.  I consider myself fortunate in that I had the intuition that always drew me in the 'right next direction.'  If I had the services of a professional certified coach, I would likely have made some of these changes sooner--particularly my last career transition.  Given my history, genuine love for people, great intuition and now my professional coach training, I feel qualified and in integrity in Life Transition Coaching--  'I've walked the talk' in other words. In Life Transition Coaching we work with together to identify your unique abilities, strengths, weaknesses and passions; paint a vision that is right for you, develop an action plan; and then, you'll ready to act on the plan with continued support from me as your coach.  If you are considering or in one of the following life transition phases, then life transition coaching is likely for you:

 Ü  Career Transition--within your current employment, to another form of employment, or to self-employment

Ü  Retirement or Semi-Retirement--Painting a vision of the next phase of your life [couples welcome]

  "After a personal crisis, I found myself struggling to regain a clear, positive focus on life which required that I redefine myself and establish new awarenesses and goals.  After several months of traditional counselling, I realized I needed to look ahead not back.  I had read a newspaper article about Sophie's life skills coaching and felt sure that she would have the skills and strategies I required.  I was not disappointed.  Sophie consistently treated me with respect and sincerity.  She showed empathy and concern and is a skilled, attentive listener.  Sophie's extensive training allowed her to capably assess my needs and to suggest effective strategies to assist me in meeting the goals we had defined.  Sophie is constantly building and broadening her expertise in the coaching field as she continues to take coaching courses.  Sophie's enthusiasm, sense of commitment and dedication toward her chosen profession and her clients make her an admirable role model.  As I look back over the past months I can easily see the advances in developing and attaining new goals that I achieved with Sophie's help.  I would unreservedly recommend Sophie's coaching skills to anyone wishing to bring about fundamental change in their life."   Darline J.
