Beyond the Practice®

Although there is much overlap between coaching and consulting, there are some significant differences. Consulting typically offers more specific and direct feedback whereas coaching is more process-oriented and client-driven. I provide a hybrid approach. My consulting process incorporates coaching interventions to a large extent to assist in identifying goals and objectives. The goals and objectives are specific to your vision for your practice and brand. However, the feedback I offer is direct and specifically tailored to your goals and objectives, which is more consistent with a consulting role. Bottom line is...Some tactics simply work better than others. When that is the case, I believe it is my role to tell you exactly that (consulting). However, often times it is a matter of choosing the approach that best suits you, your vision, your values, and your personal and business style. When that is the case, I shift into a process-oriented and client-centered approach (coaching) to help you design the practice and brand that best aligns with your values and your vision.

Your consulting sessions are largely what you make of them. You should come to each session open-minded and with questions. We will work through limiting beliefs and roadblocks together using a collaborative approach. Together we will create a customized plan to propel your brand forward. Consulting sessions are most often conducted on a bi-weekly basis to allow an implementation week in between sessions. We will have ongoing communication as needed throughout the consulting process including between sessions and during implementation weeks. You will be expected to complete tasks in your business on the scheduled timelines we set together to make the most of your consulting experience. You can expect the information to be customized to your specific goals and objectives. One-on-one consulting is not about information gathering. It is intended to provide you only with the information most relevant to you, your practice, and your brand as to prevent information overload, improve focus, and accelerate progress. You can also expect ongoing communication between sessions as needed for support and clarity as well as specific deadlines for accountability and a shared vision board for focus on the big picture.
