Young adult coaching

Coaching for young adults, usually from the late teens through the late twenties, who are working out how to run their own lives. It suits a young person who feels stuck between where they are and where they thought they would be by now, or who is doing what everyone expects and is not sure it is what they want. We talk about school, work and what comes next, money and independence, motivation and follow-through, friendships and relationships, living at home or moving out, confidence, and the everyday skills of running your own week — without lectures, and one thing at a time.

Young adults can come on their own, and often do. Parents frequently make the first call, and we are clear with everyone from the start about what stays private: what a young person says in their session stays there. The same coach works with them every week, fifty-five minutes, by video anywhere in California or in person in Santa Cruz County. A single session is $130, or take a block of four ($495), eight ($935) or twelve ($1,325) — the longer the block, the less each session costs, down to $110. If the whole family needs to be part of it, family coaching may be the better fit, and we will say so.
