Mental Health Coaching
Kaylin’s coaching is collaborative and strengths-based. Clients can expect to learn new skills, build resources, and strengthen intuition in order to live fuller and healthier lives.
Let’s collaborate on…
The Practical
Navigating medical systems to access appropriate care, prioritizing amongst many health needs, disability applications, patient advocacy.
The Physical
Determining whether or not environmental factors are contributing to illness, pinpointing triggers that impact health, strengthening ability to feel and sense the body.
The Psychological
Identifying and addressing trauma and anxiety related to illness or treatment, grieving multiple and sometimes recurring losses, adjusting to the gradations between “well” and “sick.”
The Relational
Interacting with people who do not understand or respect illness-related needs, advocating for needs within ableist systems.
Coaching with Kaylin is…
Solution-Focused
Coaching helps you achieve specific goals. Mobilizing your skills and resources produces solutions that work for you.
Trauma-Informed
Trauma needs safe attention. Recognizing trauma as trauma is an important step. Looking at the ways your trauma sets you up for struggles and learning new ways of being helps you live a fuller life.
Context-Based
Effective treatment plans are not one-size-fits-all. Including your unique context creates safety and workability.
Culturally Humble
There are things I don’t know. Respecting differences and acknowledging systems of power keeps our work honest.
Kaylin also provides consultations to physicians and other health-related professionals
