Life & career coaching for writers
from Katey Coffing, Ph.D.
Take great leaps—and land on your feet!
What my clients say:
"Katey has helped me build a creative goal setting/achieving
system that works. I will continue to use this process throughout
my career and life. As a writer and self-publisher I was
seeking encouragement and guidance from someone who understands
the plight of the creative mind. Someone who's 'been there
done that.' Katey has. Her understanding and friendly approach
have helped move my ideas from dream to reality. She's truly
a unique find."
-Laura Turner, www.violetprosepubs.com
"I'm a
writer, and Katey became my life coach when I hit a major
creative block. She helped me enormously with dissolving
that block, but in the process, gently guided me to see,
and address, the issues that had created the block in the
first place. I never felt I was under any obligation to
use her suggestions on the path she was helping me define
for myself, and yet when I did, I immediately felt the difference
in my life. The very best part about my sessions with her
is that I felt like I was talking to a good friend, one
with enormous clarity and perception. Her warmth, humor
and acceptance made it easy for me to get straight to the
heart of the problem and resolve it."
-JD
"Katey
has been incredibly supportive of my creative dreams. She's
willing to listen to my intentions to move not just to 'a
bigger game' but out of the territory where 'bigger is better'
and 'game' is an acceptable metaphor for life. I highly
recommend her for any person whose aspirations don't fit
into a conventional model of success. Katey is helping me
pursue real change, not just minor modifications."
-BS
"Katey
is calm, focused, and mentally organized, which has a contagious
effect. She really took just one thing and asked a lot of
good pertinent questions to help me break it down, and gave
real, useful, and yet simple suggestions. I also appreciated
it when she accepted that there were some things I knew
would not work—it meant she was listening, and wasn't
speaking from a place of absolute knowledge and certainty.
That's good because it feels less like being told what to
do as being gently guided along, taking an active part in
the process, and having things organized. And we laugh together!"
-SS
"I never would have thought to turn to a life coach
when I was wrestling with questions about both my career and
my love life. But as it turns out, my coach was exactly what
I needed—someone to ask pointed questions and delve into
the emotions behind the decisions I was making in my life.
Katey's coaching style, which is a mix of humor and tough
directness, was a perfect mix when it came to helping me find
the path that I needed to pursue."
-PH
"Katey has that uncanny knack for finding the spark
that motivates me, the ability to help me acknowledge and
overcome the obstacles I have created for myself, and the
true gift of really listening to my needs. In just a few weeks
of working together, she has already sharpened my life focus
to an extraordinary degree. I highly recommend her to anyone
who wants to realize their true potential."
-LF
"I took one of Katey's free teleclasses last week, and
am so glad I did. Not only was I able to collect a lot of
useful information, but I also met up with a really neat person
whose passion is helping people succeed on their way. Thanks,
Katey!"
-FB
"Working with Katey has been a powerful way to start
making significant changes in my life. She urges me to reflect
more deeply on my life's choices, and in doing so, has empowered
me to seek and ask for what I really want. Her encouragement
has been consistent and respectful. I feel I can see the
forest through the trees!"
