What to Know About Working Together
This page is here to support your decision-making with clarity and ease.
Below you'll find answers to some of the most common questions parents and teens have about this work. If something is still unclear, you're always welcome to reach out. You deserve to feel informed and confident before saying yes.
What is the Love Begins Within coaching program?
Love Begins Within is a 12-session private coaching journey for teen girls who want to build self-trust, emotional resilience, and healthy relationship foundations.
We begin with calming the nervous system - because true healing and growth can only happen when the body feels safe. From that place of safety, your daughter will learn to set boundaries without guilt, trust her inner voice, and navigate relationships with confidence and clarity.
This is a space where she can slow down, feel seen, and reconnect with the girl she's meant to be.
How is coaching different from therapy?
Coaching is forward-focused and growth-oriented. It helps clients build tools for confidence, self-trust, and healthy relationships. Therapy often focuses more on diagnosing or healing past trauma. Coaching is not a substitute for therapy or medical care.
How do I know if this is right for my daughter?
If your daughter is struggling with self-doubt, people-pleasing, or feeling overwhelmed by the pressure to be everything for everyone—this coaching space can help her come back to herself.
It’s a powerful fit if:
-
She’s craving more confidence, clearer boundaries, and emotional tools to navigate friendships, school, or early dating
-
You’ve noticed her spark dimming—more anxiety, irritability, or disconnection
-
She’s ready to grow, but needs a safe, supportive guide to help her get there
Rather than waiting for a crisis, this work offers proactive support—meeting her now, before unhealthy patterns take deeper root.
The best way to know? Trust your intuition—and take the next step.
You can schedule a complimentary discovery call to explore whether Love Begins Within is the right fit.
How are parents involved?
For clients under 18, parents receive brief check-ins at the midpoint and conclusion of the program. These updates offer general reflections on progress and focus areas—while honoring the confidentiality of each session to protect your daughter’s emotional safety and trust.
This balance helps her feel secure in opening up, while keeping you gently informed and supported in the process.
What about confidentiality?
Coaching works best when young women feel safe to be honest. Everything shared in session is private and confidential. The only exceptions are if there is risk of harm to self or others, disclosure of abuse, or if required by law. For clients under 18, parents receive only general progress updates, not session details, unless the client requests that something specific be shared.
What if my teen misses a session?
With 24 hours’ notice, sessions can be rescheduled. Sessions canceled with less than 24 hours’ notice are considered used. Emergencies are always handled with compassion.
Is this only for girls who are really struggling?
Not at all. Many of the girls I work with are high-achieving, well-liked, and seem “put together” on the outside.
But inside, they often carry invisible stress—overthinking, people-pleasing, self-doubt, or a deep pressure to always perform.
This space gives her room to exhale, reconnect with her true self, and build the emotional foundation she’ll carry for years to come.
Rather than waiting until adulthood to unlearn painful patterns, she learns how to trust herself now—placing her light years ahead of her peers as she steps into womanhood with clarity, confidence, and emotional wisdom.
How long are sessions and how often do they happen?
Each private session is 50 minutes. We typically meet weekly for 12 weeks, though scheduling can be adjusted if needed.
How much does it cost?
Current pricing and payment options are always listed on the Coaching page. Please refer there for the most up-to-date information.
Will you ever offer group coaching?
Right now, Love Begins Within is offered as a private, one-on-one program, which allows for personalized attention and deep trust-building. In the future, I may offer small group coaching opportunities where young women can learn together and support one another in community. Stay connected through my website to hear about new offerings.
