1:1 Coaching
We challenge those we coach to identify their values, strengths, and areas of growth in the process of co-creating goals and a plan for our work together. Our most successful individual coaching relationships are those that include honest conversations on the ways the client's power and privilege (both positional and in terms of their identities) impact their work and working relationships.
team coaching
We help teams identify and move toward their common goals through utilizing aspects of community accountability processes, restorative justice practices, and consensus-building. We specialize in helping organizations and school teams plan and integrate restorative practices into their spaces.

mediation
Conflict is a natural part of all human relationships. If conflict is addressed intentionally, it has the potential to strengthen that relationship. This requires openness, vulnerability, and informed consent from everyone involved. Whether conflict arises within a community, friendship, business team, living situation, romantic relationship, or family unit, the mediation process offers the opportunity to speak, to be heard, and to work toward a solution with the guidance and perspective of a trained mediator outside of the situation.
sharing narratives
It is essential that each person has the opportunity to speak their truths, wants, and needs in relation to the conflict at hand. In this step of the mediation process, participants will be asked to hold the community norm of respecting multiple truths, as our identities, relationships, and experiences shape our view of what constitutes truth.
building an agenda
Part of our role as mediator is to help identify the root of the conflict at hand and to pull out parts of the narratives that connect to those roots. The agenda will loosely guide the mediation process.
encouraging dialogue
As facilitators of the mediation process, one of our only goals is to encourage dialogue between participants that feels respectful and generative for everyone involved.
solutions & reality testing
When participants in a mediation process approach a potential solution, we will engage with each of them individually to help ensure that the solution on the table is viable and that they are able to follow through with it before agreements are made.
Agreements and Follow-up
Conflict does not disappear when agreements are reached. Often participants find it helpful to schedule a follow-up session with me as an added measure of accountability to follow any agreements reached in the mediation process.

repairing harm
Accountability is not simple. It is often messy and hard, and it is also a deeply necessary component of any healthy community. We work with individuals who have experienced harm to co-create accountability processes within their community. This looks different for every person and every situation, but a truth that never changes is that it cannot be done alone.
Restorative practices prioritize the person or people who have been harmed in a specific instances in the process of addressing or repairing that harm. They decide whether they want to sit in circle with the person or people who harmed them, and having that kind of agency can help them regain a sense of power & control in a situation that may have left them feeling powerless.
