Matt Walker made a connection with our son from the first time they met. His low key, insightful manner established a relationship with our son that has deepened over time. He has assisted our son in facing significant issues and creating a new life for himself. His support to our family helped us heal dynamics that were not serving any of us. Matt understands the adolescent journey and serves as a valuable guide for families and youth, allowing each person to discover insights along the way. Matt is a model of integrity and insight. Any family or individual who chooses to tap Matt's programs or coaching process will find him perceptive, congruent, and valuable.

  • Individual and Family Coaching is for the individual and/or family who is interested in unleashing greater potential, venturing down a new path, or taking time to be more focused on existing goals. It is our belief that you are the best and only expert on your life and no matter where you are in life or business, your potential reaches beyond your current performance. With coaching, you explore the life you want to design and unleash your inner resources, so often overlooked. You develop the capacity to take a stand in the future you wish to create and begin your journey to discover yourself, alter behaviors as needed and act upon the vastness of your potential.

    As your coach, I initially operate from a state of "not knowing" and being extremely curious about you and the perspectives you bring to coaching. In this context, I can more freely hear you without my assumptions or preconceived ideas getting in your way. In "not knowing" what you are about, the responsibility rests with you to clarify your life, work, goals, dreams, values, challenges and accomplishments for me, your coach. Therein begins the journey of stepping into the future you want to design. I work with you to safely explore critical areas of your life and, at times, challenge your thinking models by asking you powerful questions, with your permission, of course! Finally, I work with you to hold you accountable to achieve the results you want. However, the responsibility for your success in achieving those results rests entirely with you.

    Coaching is a deliberate process of focused conversations to turn your attention towards your strengths and maximize your capabilities. It is a helpful tool when moving through life transitions, changing careers, developing new coping mechanisms while in recovery, and maintaining a lifestyle change. If you are seeking change in yourself, your relationships with friends and family, or building new healthy habits - coaching and development work is for you.

    This work contains therapeutic aspects, but is focused on building strengths and movement towards excellence. Coaching and development can be offered in a variety of modalities, including: one-on-one or family hourly sessions, telephone sessions, email, and half and full day activities. Call us to discuss your situation and we can assess your needs.
