the life coach that works with you to ask better questions and
unlock your answers.

see a new you. hear a new you. get in touch with a new you.

Hello, and welcome!

I'm looking forward to working with you to find your inner solutions, your inner strengths, your inner wisdom.

I can say from direct experience both as a coach and client that all of us possess these qualities. I consider it my work, and my pleasure, to help people see, hear, and get in touch with these gifts.

Do you ever:

If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, and you feel that these issues are holding you back from living fully, you may benefit from working with a life coach.

What is coaching?

"Life Coaching" is distinct from counseling, consulting, or therapy in the traditional sense. In coaching, we believe that the individual has access to his or her own answers and solutions. The coach does not act as an advice giver, does not prepare a list of commands for the client to follow, and does not “fix” the client’s problems in a "doctor/patient" dynamic. Rather, the coach works with the client to get in touch with their intuition, their deeper self, in order to see and hear ways of being that may have previously been unexplored, but are emergent and real.

Coaching is a present-focused process where the coach guides the client to find meaningful solutions to current challenges. Sometimes this means coming up with better questions rather than clear answers, though clarity and deeper connection is always at the forefront of my coaching goals. The emphasis is on finding value and client-centered meaning in each session.

Integral Coaching in particular is interesting and powerful as it uses Integral Theory (popularized by writers such as Ken Wilber) as a framework for effecting growth and development. Even better, the client doesn't have to know anything about Integral Theory! Leave that to your coach :-)

Sessions with Timothy last for about 1 hour, and range from 3-4 months in duration. Sessions may be held in your home, or in a place of mutual convenience such as your workplace, coffee shop, or office.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who are your clients?

I have coached a variety of people at a variety of ages. Common issues people present are challenges with work/life transitions, relationships, self image issues, parenting challenges. I also specialize in working with creative individuals who are faced with challenges in their careers and art.

Do you offer sessions in home?

Yes - I am able to travel within the Greater Vancouver area. Please contact me for details.

Do you offer sessions in languages other than English?

At the moment, no, though I am planning to offer sessions in other languages in the near future. However, I have lived overseas and had extensive experience with the Japanese, Chinese, and Middle Eastern communities here in Canada, and am sensitive to the cultural challenges involved.

Why should I choose you as a Coach?

Good question!

  1. I have been through the coaching process as a client more than once and have seen results for myself
  2. I have received excellent and rigourous training from Integral Coaching Canada and Rhodes Wellness College
  3. I have worked in the creative field and have been self-employed for 15 years and know the challenges
  4. I have lived overseas and understand the challenges involved with cross cultural living and working
  5. I bring a unique set of life experiences to the table that allows me to be not only a good listener, but a good “connector of dots”. This helps me ask powerful questions designed to bring you into contact with your own truth and intuition.
Testimonials

The coaching approach felt to me as if it was structured in methodology, yet flexible enough to follow the discussion down side paths that eventually led back to the main theme. The openness reminded me of a very good "brain storming" approach that allowed for creativity to emerge. Tim brought a summative quality to all of this, that allowed me to feel confident about my own strengths. Tim was also able to honour the immensity of certain insights gained by me, by giving them 'weight and space.' Such epiphanies that come from deep within subconscious mind were given their place for the conscious mind to "hear" them too.

Tim provides a deeply respectful and safe place for my self-discovery. He is profoundly thoughtful and expresses himself with succent eloquence.
- Y.C. Vancouver

I feel much appreciation for the coaching sessions I've had with Tim. He is very caring and I felt really heard and comfortable with him. Not only is he brilliant in his comments and questions as a coach, but he's also very perceptive and was able to help me go deeper within myself to find my own answers. I've gained more clarity and more focus from my coaching sessions with Tim.
- M.N. Vancouver

When I think back on the few sessions I had with Tim...I really felt like he knew exactly what I was trying to work through. The feeling of understanding was in many ways overwhelming. His line of questions were direct and to the point, without judgement. I had no problem opening up to Tim as he made me feel I could trust him with my situation.
- D.C. Vancouver

During our frequent coaching sessions, you have always made me leave the session feeling stronger and confident. You are truly empathetic and compassionate. I very much felt trusted by you and not judged in any way. Thank you allowing me to be who I really need to be. Tim, your life coaching skills are amazing!
- T. Vancouver

Tim has an incredible capacity to hold space during his sessions. Often I fear sharing my secret truths with others, but with Tim I was able to communicate those things that I hid even from myself. When light is shed on your monsters you see that they are not so scary; Tim helped to turn on the lights.
