Liane-Louise Coaching
I am an executive narrative coach and use the power of stories to help my clients implement change. As in classic storytelling, transformation happens when we enter the woods and confront the obstacles we find there, and I use this idea as the basis for my coaching.
I particularly focus on identity change and helping people navigate professional challenges when they find themselve within the shadow of personal loss, such as the death of a loved one, the end of a significant relationship, the deterioration of their health, or after retirement or a job loss.
Through compassionate and creative collaboration, I work alongside my clients, guiding them through the pain and uncertainty, to help them write the next chapter of their story, and find their way out of the woods.
