Supporting Your Journey to Your True Self

    Hi, I'm Lika - and I'm here to support you in uncovering your strengths, reaching your goals, and creating meaningful, lasting change in your life.

    I believe that every person's path is unique, and there's no one-size-fits-all approach to growth. That's why I work integratively, drawing from a range of evidence-based methods including coaching, CBT, SFBT, NLP, Gestalt, and Solution-Focused Practice.

    My aim is to meet you where you are, with warmth, curiosity, and respect, and help you move toward where you truly want to be - with clarity, resilience, and confidence.

    Clarify What You Really Want

    We begin by exploring your goals, values, and aspirations. Together, we'll uncover what truly matters to you, so you can move forward with clarity and purpose.

    πŸͺž

    Deepen Your Self-Awareness

    Through reflection and honest conversation, you'll reconnect with your core - your strengths, beliefs, and inner motivations. This process helps you better understand who you are and what drives you.

    πŸ—ΊοΈ

    Turn Vision Into Action

    Once you're clear on where you're headed, we'll break that vision down into practical, doable steps. You'll walk away with a clear plan, realistic timelines, and tools to track your progress.

    🀝

    Stay Accountable (with Support)

    You don't have to do this alone. I'll be by your side to support, guide, and gently hold you accountable as you navigate challenges and celebrate wins.

    πŸ’¬

    Strengthen Assertiveness and Boundaries

    Together, we'll work on finding your voice - so you can express your needs clearly and confidently, even in uncomfortable conversations. Whether you're dealing with people who push your limits, struggle to say no, or want to feel more grounded in tough interactions, we'll build the skills to help you stay true to yourself while staying connected to others.

    πŸ’­

    Shift Limiting Beliefs

    We'll work on strengthening your mindset - challenging self-doubt, shifting unhelpful patterns, and building the kind of confidence that comes from within.

    πŸ› οΈ

    Build Real-Life Skills

    Whether it's setting boundaries, managing your time, improving communication, or building emotional resilience - we'll focus on what you need most in this season of your life.

    πŸ”

    Reflect and Adjust

    Growth isn't linear. We'll check in often, reflect on what's working (and what's not), and adapt the path as you evolve.

    🌱

    Create Sustainable Change

    The goal is real, lasting transformation. Not quick fixes. Together, we'll integrate new habits and perspectives that support your long-term well-being and fulfillment.

    If you're ready to take the next step - whether that means starting small or diving deep - I'm here to walk beside you with compassion, honesty, and care.

    • 🎁Free Introductory Meeting Every coaching package includes a complimentary 30-minute introductory session - a chance to get to know each other and explore how we can work together.
    • πŸ”One-Time Sessions Single coaching sessions are available only for returning clients - as part of follow-up support after significant prior work together.
    • πŸ’³Payment Terms All individual sessions must be paid in advance. For coaching packages, payment is due either in full upfront or after the first session, depending on the arrangement we agree on.
    • ⏰Cancellation Policy Sessions canceled less than 12 hours in advance will be charged in full. This helps respect both your time and mine, and ensures consistent scheduling for all clients.

    My Commitment to Our Work Together

    • πŸ“žAvailability I'm available to support you via email, chat apps, or phone until 20:00. Timely and thoughtful responses are part of how I ensure high-quality support between sessions.
    • 🧭Professional Boundaries To maintain objectivity and create a safe, focused space, I do not offer sessions to close friends, relatives, or anyone with whom I have a personal relationship.
    • 🩺Scope of Practice Coaching is not a substitute for psychiatric care. If such support is needed, I will help recognize that need and can guide you through the referral process.
    • ⏱️Session Duration Each session lasts between 45 and 55 minutes - long enough for meaningful progress, while respecting your time and energy.
    • πŸ’¬Free Introductory Session Your first session (often called a "chemistry session") is free. It's a space for us to explore fit, build rapport, and decide whether we'd like to continue working together.
    • ⏳Mutual Commitment Punctuality and preparedness are key. I commit to being fully present and focused, and I ask the same of my clients to make the most of our time together.
    • 🎯Client-Centered Focus In every session, the focus remains fully on you - your goals, your challenges, your growth. This space is yours.
    • 🧠Empowerment Over Advice I don't give direct advice. Instead, I guide you to discover your own insights, solutions, and next steps - empowering you to make informed, authentic choices.
