My approach

I’m a professionally-trained coach through the Academy for Coaching Excellence (ACE), an accredited training program of the International Coach Federation (ICF). The coaching model from ACE combines the latest in neuroscience with powerful principals from ancient wisdom teachings. This framework is both pragmatic and transformational. I use this method to support creatives to move beyond what has been clouding the path in order to take consistent action towards what has the most meaning for them to contribute next.

We'll have to chat to feel our chemistry but in the meantime, here's a little about me

I share about what has influenced me?  My Identities and Cultural Background.  I list some cultures and identities that have impacted the way I have developed and the ways I see the world.  I am inspired to share these to deepen our awareness together and in hopes that we can connect through resonant or contrasting experiences, identities or opinions.  I follow by sharing the story of how I became a life and relationship coach.  You can click here to read these: About Alyssa   

Testimonials

Through working with Alyssa, I feel more confident to take small, but very important steps in my life. Alyssa has helped me connect to and clarify my deeply held values so that I could take action towards them, with a whole lot more ease and fun than I’ve ever known how!! I moved the needle as a facilitator, how I show up for others, my own projects, and mostly in the way that I hear my own thoughts. She’s helped me interrupt unsupportive ways of thinking with a kind of gentle encouragement that I’ve learned to bring to myself.

I was wary of this process, not sure how it would take hold for me. Through working with Alyssa, I feel it kind of just secretly infiltrated my perspective of positivity-recognizing and dismantling the negative talk in my head.  By setting meaningful goals and building the ability to zero in on the goals and meaningful opportunities important to me, I now feel a plethora of community impact and have exciting opportunities important to me in line with my goals.

Through the support of Alyssa’s coaching, I am clearer in my thoughts. My thoughts are more positive, and I can get to the heart of the issue a lot quicker without going into story.  I now have clearer life direction, and I also am more easily able to hone into my intuition on various issues a lot faster. I feel a lot more connected to life.

What others say

  • I feel responsible to myself in a new way. Alyssa has been my partner in helping me to trust me, and have something to show for it.

  •  I started working with Alyssa because I was experiencing a lot of shift in my life. I was considering a career change, and was also re-prioritizing my personal life. Alyssa really used the framework of coaching to help me investigate what was motivating my desire for change, and identifying what obstacles and fears stood in the way. I feel more prepared to make my career change, and also more committed to leading a life that better reflects my values and priorities.”
  • Alyssa combined a focus on action-oriented steps with the time and space to explore what was behind those actions in a way that was very helpful to me.
  • Before working with Alyssa, I was struggling with identifying my priorities, such as whether to go back to school, stick to a daily routine, or develop better relationships. Coaching helped me identify my priorities by helping me notice from week to week what was stopping me from advancing in my goals. From there we would put on a sharper lens to help identify what my true goals actually were and adjust accordingly.
