One on One Coaching

Practicing the art of a deeply formed lifeIn addition to group work, Inner Studios offers individual coaching. I love facilitating meaningful discovery conversations with people who are wanting personal and spiritual growth in their life, whether they know exactly the outcomes they want or they have a lot of "I don't knows" in their life and work.
For me, having a coach changed my life; it helped me become more at ease with myself, and more courageous. It didn't happen in one moment but in many moments strung together with truth, grace and grit. Those conversations remind me of who I am and then reveal something new and good that provides understanding and direction. Having the conversations that really matter Could you benefit from a skillful conversation that holds your agenda and honors what’s important to you in a way that brings more clarity and agency for moving forward in your life? |
Find your footing
Coaching can help you flourish in new ways across your personal and professional life. It can help you identify where you are and what you are wanting for your life. It can help you face significant change when you're not sure how to navigate the ambiguity and unknown of where you are and what's ahead? It's a customized and process-oriented conversation based on what's most important to you. If you don't know what's most important to you right now, some of our initial conversations will help identify that. (Some of what is "most" important changes over time in our lives and it is good to take a fresh look at this.)
During the coaching process, you will be listened to deeply and engaged with powerful questions. Your insights, values and patterns will be drawn out and you will be compassionately seen and called forth. You will get more clarity on what's most important to you and how to navigate your way forward. You will also be introduced to tools that you can practice and use long after our coaching relationship ends.
Live with more freedom and authenticity
As with all Inner Studios offerings, it's my hope that you become more deeply and authentically alive, more at ease with yourself, more aware of God's love and presence, more aligned with God's intention for your life, and more prepared to handle the challenges and joys of the days to come.

Enneagram
The Enneagram is a personality framework that offers in-depth insight to individuals, teams and organizations. It illuminates the cognitive and motivational patterns of each of the 9 core types represented in the model and helps to uncover the strengths and the traps of those patterns. Not only does it show you what "is", it also offers a rich map of development for each type.
The iEQ9 is the assessment I use. It is an in-depth, scientifically reliable and highly recommended assessment. Individual Assessments & Debrief Sessions
The standard iEQ9 assessment includes core type, subtype, lines, wings, centers of intelligence/expression/structure, triadic styles and more. The assessment package comes with a 90-minute Zoom session to debrief your results, and an optional, additional hour for further exploration. Coaching with the Enneagram
If you want to put the Enneagram into practice, we can design coaching sessions for any real-life situation or topic of your choice and deliberately integrate the insights from the Enneagram and your core type. Taking the iEQ9 assessment is recommended but not required if you've already identified your core type and have a basic working knowledge of the Enneagram. (Coaching fees and guidelines are the same as the Custom Coaching offer Team or Group Workshops
An Enneagram workshop is available on request for small or large groups. This workshop can take place on one full day (hours), or it can be spread out over several weeks - a great option for small groups that meet regularly in person or virtually. We dive into key aspects of this framework which explores 9 ways human beings see themselves and the world. This course will be informational as well as discovery-based, interactive and fun! We will demystify some of the language, explore the motivations and characteristics of each type, and bring some fresh understanding to your team or group's dynamics. Whether you are brand new to the Enneagram or have some experience with it, you will gain additional insight about yourself and others. And you'll receive a few resources to take with you as you continue in your own growth journey. Fees
Standard Assessment Package $250 - Includes assessment and debrief sessions. Professional Assessment Package $350 - Includes 2 debriefing sessions and an expanded report with additional sections relevant to working in teams or partnerships. Going beyond the debrief: Coaching Fees 2 sessions per month: $250 3 sessions per month: $325 Full Day Workshop for groups Fees: upon request For more information about the iEQ9 assessment, visit this website: www.integrative9.com

What people are saying...
There have been times in my life when I knew a change needed to be made, but I felt stuck in knowing what the next steps were and finding the courage to move forward. It’s been in these times that I’ve reached out to Kathy for coaching. I loved our times together. Kathy provided the safety and acceptance I needed to be my true self in our conversations. Each time we met she had a way of asking just the right questions to help me discover for myself what I needed to do. Her creativity and strategies guided my thinking in ways I couldn’t do on my own. Most of all, I no longer felt alone in my problems and I gained the perspective that there are many ways forward.
