Coaching is a great tool for people who are currently stuck and who could use the guidance, advice, and leadership of a clinical psychologist to figure out their next steps.
Coaching is Short-term and Laser Focused
Coaching is a great for navigating a difficult life transition (e.g. break up, new job, moving to a new city, moving to college), wanting to improve your personal development, social skills, dating and relationships, navigate career choices and challenges, emotional health maintenance, MindBody wellness, work-life integration, and more…
Coaching is Guidance and Advice
Coaching clients received direct guidance and professional advice. Coaching with Dr. Freshwater also includes behavioral change with any personality traits that may be creating obstacles or resistances that are getting in the way of your personal and professional success.

Strength Based is about epic and powerful growth. Your strengths are harnessed and leveraged to create a more fulfilling and productive life.
Why Choose Coaching with a Clinical Psychologist ?
As a Clinical Psychologist, we are highly trained in personality types, traits, cognitive-behavioral analyses, and therefore we are the leaders in coaching.
Our in-depth training in personalities, identity formations, and cognitive-behavioral functional systems gives us the edge up in coaching.
Your implementing effective coaching tools that you will learn relies heavily on your personality…And Dr. Freshwater is an expert in assessing personality and any mind-made and behavioral resistances that may occur. Major breakthroughs can occur in a short period of time.
***In other words, Dr. Freshwater will guide you so you don’t get in your own way of achieving success.
What if I don’t know if I need Coaching or Psychotherapy?
As a Clinical Psychologist, I am also aware of when a client is a better fit for psychotherapy. Typically, an individual in need of psychotherapy with a Clinical Psychologist experiences inability to function in their daily every day lives.
For example, if you are experiencing risk concerns, such as frequent thoughts of self-harm, or current chronic moderate -severe mood dysfunction, or acute changes in behaviors, then psychotherapy is the appropriate choice.
It is noted when I screen my clients to see if we are an awesome match, I will recommend psychotherapy if I think that is the best option to meet their needs. Otherwise, I will recommend coaching based as the best option to meet the clients needs.
