coaching

The coaching conversation is deep, personal. It’s also a goal driven process. And change? Change is enlivening.


Alignment

It’s a profound experience to feel grounded and connected to yourself. As a leadership and life coach, I will support your clear mind, your open heart and your unique spiritual journey.

Leadership and Life Coaching

My coaching approach is grounded in the methodology of the Hudson Institute of Coaching and ‘life cycle’ awareness, developed by coaching pioneer Frederick Hudson. Additionally, the research of Dr. Brené Brown, Dr. Kristin Neff, Dr. Chris Germer and so many others will inform our work together. Mindfulness, self-compassion, common humanity, neuro-plasticity, somatic awareness and humble curiosity optimize the coaching conversation.

 

RUTH WILLIAMSON

I hold a PCC credential from the International Coaching Federation, trained at the Hudson Institute of Coaching. I draw deeply from the work of Dr. Brené Brown and the research that informs her Daring Way™, Rising Strong™ and Dare to Lead™ curricula.

Mindfulness and Self-Compassion--the research of Dr. Kristin Neff and Dr. Chris Germer, is foundational to my personal and professional practice. I am a trained teacher of the MSC mindfulness and self-compassion curriculum.

And the IEQ9 Enneagram Personality Assessment is a tool I offer to clients to jump-start our work together, and to add nuance to our on-going coaching conversation.

Finally, as a trained chaplain with the Upaya Zen Center, my work is deeply informed by my on-going study of Buddhist psychology and wisdom teachings.

I work individually with clients, within the workplace and in workshops and retreat.
