Gerry Letendre
Hypnotherapist, RPh, MBA, CHt
Life coaching focuses on helping individuals gain clarity, direction, and momentum in areas where they may feel stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain. Many people know what they want to change but struggle with follow-through, confidence, or consistency. Life coaching provides a structured, supportive way to move from insight to action.
My approach to life coaching is practical, personalized, and goal-oriented. Drawing on decades of experience in healthcare, business, and leadership, I work collaboratively with clients to clarify priorities, strengthen motivation, and develop realistic strategies for change. When appropriate, hypnosis may be integrated to help address subconscious patterns that interfere with progress, such as self-doubt, procrastination, or fear of change.
Clients often seek life coaching during transitions—such as career changes, retirement, personal growth phases, or periods of increased stress. Sessions are designed to be supportive and empowering, helping clients build confidence, focus, and accountability while maintaining control and autonomy throughout the process.
Life coaching is not psychotherapy or medical treatment and does not replace care from licensed healthcare or mental health professionals. It is offered as a complementary service to support personal development, clarity, and long-term fulfillment.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
Alongside my therapy work, I offer life coaching for adults who are ready to make concrete changes in their careers or relationships and want support with action and momentum. Coaching is different from therapy: we stay closer to the present and future — what you want now, what gets in the way, and what you’re willing to do differently. Coaching with me focuses on who you are, what you want, and how to get there.
This work can be helpful if you already have insight into your patterns but feel stuck when it comes to actually doing something different. That might look like wanting to change jobs but not moving forward, wanting healthier relationships but repeating familiar dynamics, or knowing you need boundaries but struggling to set or keep them.
Together, we clarify your priorities in work and relationships, identify the beliefs and habits that slow you down, and turn insight into specific, realistic steps. Between sessions, you try things out in real life — having conversations, setting limits, exploring new directions — and we use what happens as feedback to refine your approach. My style is collaborative, practical, and grounded: I won’t push you past your limits, but I will help you stay connected to your goals and build steady momentum toward a life and relationships that feel more aligned with you.

Dr. Linda G. Ritchie, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., LPC, LMFT, Certified Hypnotherapist
If you feel stuck, unfulfilled, or not performing at the level you know you’re capable of, coaching can help you move forward. You may be successful on the outside, yet frustrated with patterns like overthinking, self-doubt, procrastination, or difficulty following through. You don’t necessarily need therapy—you need clarity, direction, and a more effective way to execute.
In my coaching work, I focus on helping you identify what’s getting in your way and develop a clear, actionable path forward. Using principles from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), along with tools from NLP, clinical hypnosis, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT/tapping), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), we target both mindset and behavior. This allows you to not only set meaningful goals, but also follow through consistently by addressing the internal patterns that typically interfere with progress.
What’s often missing isn’t intelligence or motivation—you likely already know what you should be doing. What’s missing is a structured approach to overcome the internal resistance, distractions, or habits that keep you from executing at a higher level. Without that, even the best intentions tend to stall.
The fact that you’re here suggests you’re ready to take action. If you’re willing to approach this in a focused, results-oriented way, I can help you gain clarity, build momentum, and create measurable progress toward the goals that matter most to you.
