Consulting
A closer look at the situation you're navigating.
Consultation for individuals, leaders, and organizations working through decisions, transitions, and recurring relational difficulties.
We begin with a particular question. It might concern a changing role, a difficult conversation, a pattern in a working relationship, or a decision that remains unresolved despite careful thought.
For individuals
I offer focused consultation around the choices and relationships shaping your life and work. We consider the demands of the situation, the responses that have become familiar, and the possibilities you may have difficulty seeing from within it.
This may include a professional transition, questions of direction, the expectations attached to responsibility, or how to approach an important conversation. Coaching can be part of this work when ongoing reflection and follow-through are useful.
For leaders and organizations
Organizational questions have human dimensions. Roles, expectations, authority, and communication affect how decisions are made and how people work together.
Consultation creates room to examine these conditions: where responsibilities are unclear, where conversations stall, or where a repeated difficulty may be connected to the way work is organized. The focus and format are developed around the situation.
How we work
1
Define the question
We establish what you want to examine and what would make the consultation useful.
2
Understand the pattern
We attend to the relationships, assumptions, and conditions shaping what is happening, including how pressure affects attention and response.
3
Consider the next move
We identify practical possibilities and decide what is worth trying, changing, or discussing further.
Scope
Consulting is nonclinical work. It does not include diagnosis, psychotherapy, or mental health treatment. The nature and boundaries of an engagement are discussed at the outset.
Tell me a little about the situation, who is involved, and what you would like help thinking through.
