Coaching
For those parents, guardians, educators, or other caregivers of children who wish to work in a more private setting, we offer individualized coaching appointments via phone or a private chat space on our website. A coaching arrangement does not require an ongoing commitment, only a motivation to improve the quality of your life and the lives of those around you.
In her coaching practice, Mary Ann Christie Burnside, Ed.D. specializes in teaching mindful relationship practices. Coaching, unlike therapy or counseling, is skills-based, which means that clients learn particular skills and strategies that can quickly and profoundly improve their everyday lives.
During coaching sessions, which are offered online or by phone, Mary Ann will help you learn to:
- Develop an awareness of emotional states, wants, and needs
- Understand what's under your control and let go of what isn’t
- Set appropriate limits with your children and with others
- Listen and speak in order to hear and be heard
- Lead with love, appreciation, and generosity
- Empathize with yourself and with others
- Be and stay in the present moment
- Nurture yourself and others
- Develop a discerning mind
- Ask for what you want
Contact us to schedule an appointment or to set up an initial 30-minute complementary consultation.
Please note that we have a 48-hour cancellation policy.
