• I have a sliding scale plus affordable rates for students and non-profit workers. Please email me at anna.locuslearning@gmail.com

  • Coaching is a dedicated time for you to reflect and define how to move forward. I serve as a thought partner to allow you to actively deliberate and gain clarity on a topic you identify as important. It’s a creative and strategic conversation focused on you. I provide structure and accountability to support the goals that you determine. A coaching session is primarily composed of active listening and reflective questions designed to propel your own thinking forward.

  • I lean more into the executive coaching space but sometimes it ends up looking like life coaching when the topics are personal. Ultimately, you are the same person at work as you are not at work, so topics often blur and that’s just fine. It’s better to address the whole person than to compartmentalize. How professional or personal your topics are depends on you and your preferences.

  • Results of coaching can include:

    -increased clarity around how to approach problems and challenges

    -greater execution on action plans

    -addressing habits (stopping, enhancing, starting)

    -clearer priorities

    -improved decisiveness

    -leveraging strengths

    -enhanced self-awareness

    Coaching can also support “Confidence , Communication skills, Leadership and management, Assertiveness, Understanding difference , Stress management, [and], Work/life balance” (Wales, 2002, p. 276).

FAQ’s

Fine Print

There really isn’t much. One key point is coaching is not... 

  • therapy 

  • consulting

  • training

  • spiritual direction 

If you think you might need counseling or mental health care, I am not a licensed mental health provider. If you are in danger, please call 988. While I do provide training in other contexts, coaching is not training. Likewise, it’s not consulting. My job as a coach is not to teach or advise you, but rather to support your own deliberation. As it is a partnership, it is helpful for you to come to the table with a topic in mind or some ideas about where you’d like the conversation to go.

Paperwork-wise, I issue clients a simple contract based on International Coaching Federation standards and ethics. We agree upon the time, frequency, and duration of coaching during the free consultation. Please sign and return the contract before our first session together.

  • Free Consultation: 15 minutes

  • 1st Session: 45 minutes

  • Subsequent Sessions: 30 minutes

"What I appreciate about Anna was how she could synthesize all that was going on in my brain when discussing all the projects I had going on. I liked how she put my thoughts around to-dos into bite-sized chunks. She is very professional yet very approachable and friendly. I felt like she was on my team, cheering me on every step of the way!"
