Stuart Hellebrand, M.S., C.Ht.
Hypnotherapist
My life coaching services focus on helping you achieve personal growth, setting and achieving goals and objectives, and navigating challenges in your life. We work together to clarify objectives, identify obstacles, and develop actionable plans for success. My coaching process always integrates hypnosis and hypnotherapy and typically involves:
1. Guiding clients to define specific, measurable, and meaningful goals.
2. Assisting clients in the exploration of their values, strengths, and passions.
3. Keeping clients motivated and on track during and between sessions.
4. Assisting clients overcome personal, professional, or emotional obstacles. And,
5. Helping clients shift self-limiting beliefs or negative thought patterns that are restricting success.
I work with clients on areas such as goal setting, career transitions, relationships, health, personal growth, time management, work-life balance, etc. As a life coach, I typically focus on the present and the future, emphasizing practical steps toward improvement rather than addressing deep psychological issues or past trauma.
When combining hypnosis with life coaching the results can be profound. This is attributable to the fact that together we are bypassing the flawed logic and reasoning that all too typically hold people back from achieving goals and overcoming obstacles.
Lastly, during the past six decades I have frequently combined my education, skills, and experience with those of psychiatrists, psychologists, MFT’s, and LCSW’s to benefit their patients or clients, such as the case might be.

Ashika Dickerson
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC
Life coaching is designed for individuals seeking clarity, direction, and meaningful personal or professional growth. Through a personalized, concierge-style approach, I provide structured guidance, accountability, and practical strategies to help you overcome obstacles, strengthen confidence, improve decision-making, and achieve your goals. I am happy to support clients through life coaching; however, coaching is not a substitute for psychotherapy or the diagnosis or treatment of mental health conditions. When appropriate, I will help you determine the level of care that best supports your needs and long-term well-being.

Debra Nelson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
For some people, the idea of therapy isn't a pleasant one. You can think of Life Coaching as "therapy light." A safe space to explore what's been getting in your way and preventing you from being as fulfilled as you could be. We can explore whatever area is impacting you, such as parenting, relationships, work stress, health issues, worries, etc. Along the way we can set some goals, and learn some new skills to use in your life.

Karla Lawrence
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, BC-TMH, CPC
Do you find yourself often thinking about or planning to take better care of yourself -- someday? Maybe you have a massage gift card that's about to expire. Maybe you keep thinking about calling your friends to schedule a "girls night out" but never quite get around to it. Maybe you have a little voice in your head telling you that this or that is more important. This same little voice also makes you feel guilty whenever you think about taking a few precious moments just for you.
If this sounds familiar, then life coaching for self-care can help. While self-care can be about doing those little things to pamper ourselves, it's really so much more. Self-care is about making sure that you are tending to the sacred places in your heart and soul. It's about taking steps to ensure that you are living from a place of authenticity and have learned how to know, like, and trust yourself. Through our work you will be supported in creating a personalized self-care practice that is aligned with your values and lifestyle.
If you are ready to finally make your self-care a priority, then I would love to help.

Margaret Graham
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LCPC, LPCC
My passion for coaching predates my therapy licensure and remains a core element of my practice. Where therapy often focuses on healing, coaching illuminates possibilities and activates potential. As a certified coach, I create forward-focused partnerships that help clients envision and create their desired futures. Using principles of positive psychology (without toxic positivity), we identify strengths, clarify values, and develop actionable steps toward meaningful goals. This aspect of my practice particularly resonates with clients who are stable but seeking greater fulfillment, purpose, or direction. Our coaching work emphasizes possibility, agency, and the cultivation of hope—empowering factors that can transform how we navigate life's challenges.

Eric Weinstein
Life Coach, Hypnosis and NLP, shamanic healing, Energy Psychology (including "tapping"), Voice Dialogue
I’m not a typical life coach. Most life coaching is based on the premise that the client is “healthy” enough to not need therapy or “healing”, and that coaching is all about looking forward, not backwards.
I disagree. I believe that most of us (even successful people) operate subconsciously much of the time out of reactivity from painful past life experiences and current stresses. Those wounds can provide great motivation, but without consciousness, they eventually lead to burn-out and "life crises".
Coming to terms with those experiences and reducing life stressors makes a client more grounded and balanced – which add up to someone who can now be present enough to apply tools like “emotional intelligence” training.
So I use some typical coaching tools, but I also use therapeutic approaches from mental health, healing modalities from spiritual traditions, hypnosis and neurolinguistic programming, and energy psychology.
I also use the Professional Strengths, Values & Story Survey (SVSS). The SVSS is an innovative motivational assessment tool that explores your identity and direction through 12 universal “story types.” By understanding what truly motivates you (not what other people think should motivate you), you’ll see your life and work-life purpose in wholly new way. From this point, you’ll learn how to use your strengths to move your life forward instead of struggling to use aspects of your character that don’t have much motivational energy.
Finally, if you’re looking for life meaning or purpose, consider True Purpose coaching. TP is a both a practical and an idealistic/spiritual approach to understanding (and manifesting, if you choose) what your soul – not your ego – wants for you. True Purpose is based on practices that enable individuals to access their own higher source of wisdom (even if that’s “just” one’s own “higher self”) and turn that into a life-long resource. The practical part is about clearly defining and dealing with your internal limitations – which, by the way, are usually the same beliefs that have kept you from your true potential.
Call if you think we might be a match. I’ll be glad to answer any questions you have.
