Coaching for forward-thinking leaders who care deeply about their work and how it gets done.

Human-Centered
Leadership Development

Work is both relational and personal. To be successful, you need the ability to perceive, interpret and respond to the complex demands of organizational life. At the same time, in order for work to remain meaningful and satisfying, you need to function as a whole person, centering your values and personal strengths in the day-to-day execution.

  • “I could not have navigated the extremely difficult career circumstances I was in without the partnership I had with Lara. Everytime we talked, I had an important insight, “aha” moment, or a reframing of my thoughts that helped me get out of my own way. She helped me listen to myself, see things I couldn’t see on my own, stand up for what was right, and eventually exit my previous position with a ton of confidence and land a dream opportunity. As much as I value all of the practical benefits of our work and people noticing changes in me, I still feel the deepest appreciation for the changes I know and feel inside myself.”

  • “Right from the beginning of our work together Lara made me feel immediately at ease and not judged, in every conversation. There was a huge source of value in working with Lara given that she is trained as a therapist. She has a unique approach from other leadership coaches in that she supports the whole person and understands that doesn’t just mean our work selves. Lara has helped me reduce noise and make clearer decisions for the team and the business. It is rare for Founders and CEOs to have anyone close to the business who doesn’t have a stake in it, and I really appreciate her objective viewpoint.”

  • “When I first approached Lara, I felt like I was trying to sprint through mud. I thought I needed to learn better time management, but it was actually about my identity and connection to being a first-time CEO. The work went beyond our sessions and my team told me that they could see a change in my leadership, focus, and priorities. They also “felt” like I was handling the CEO thing better. The change was nuanced but impactful and I am still using a lot of what I learned in coaching in my day-to-day as a leader. ”

  • “There are therapists and there are coaches. There are times when you could really use both. Someone to hold the space for you, both in moments of heartbreaking crisis and moments of triumphant growth. Someone who understands and honors where you are coming from and where you have been, and who also sees and celebrates who you are at this moment and pushes you to get where you want to go. This is Lara. She skillfully creates a space for her clients that all at once feels safe and challenging, where clients feel both held and pushed. Her blended experience and expertise as both a therapist and a coach offers her clients a unique relationship and compelling opportunities for growth and transformation. Unshakable, wise, kind, witty, authentic, and not afraid to call forth your bolder self. Lara is the real deal.”

    —Co-Founder, Real Parenting

  • “Lara is a top-shelf coach who is both deeply intuitive and highly skilled. She consistently creates relationships that are both safe and brave so that her clients can do the important work of listening to their deepest hopes and desires. Lara’s coaching style feels professional, pragmatic, soulful and loving. I highly recommend Lara’s work to anyone ready to find clarity and a more powerful way forward.”

    —Executive Coach and Consultant

  • “My work with Lara has emboldened me as a leader. I more fully embrace my leadership style and see clearly the unique contributions I make to any partnership. Lara invites me to explore undeveloped parts of myself, while still keeping me in touch with my strengths, and accountable for results. Through our work, I’ve achieved greater alignment with my team, with the organizational priorities, and with my personal values.”
