Coaching

As a coach, I’m deeply passionate about supporting women, LGBTQ+, and neurodivergent people through life and career transitions.

Through thought-provoking questions and creative processes, I partner with the clients and empower them to reconnect with their authentic selves, cultivate resilience with integrity, and unlock their full potential to create a fulfilling, flourishing life.

My specialties include:

  • navigating multicultural communication;
  • embracing immigration experiences;
  • living with political depression and/or eco-anxiety;
  • overcoming impostor syndrome, perfectionism, and procrastination.

I also offer:

  • business coaching for social entrepreneurs and independent consultants;
  • leadership coaching for nonprofit management;
  • writing coaching for journalists, advocates, and academia.

All coaching sessions are strictly confidential and adhere to the International Coaching Federation’s Code of Ethics.

Each coaching session lasts 60 minutes. During the sessions, I act as a thinking facilitator and sounding board, offering a safe, judgment-free environment for deep reflection.

I offer coaching in English, Mandarin Chinese, and French.

It’s important to note that coaching is not therapy, consulting, or mentoring. Here’s a short video explainer and an accessible comparison.

I look forward to working with you.
