Frequently Asked Questions

What is life coaching?

Life coaching is a transformational type of support that can help you gain clarity on your goals and make tangible progress towards them.

It’s a commitment and investment you make in yourself. My role as a coach is to help you understand yourself, get unstuck, generate positive growth and reach your goals.

Life coaching is not therapy, and does not diagnose or treat any physical or mental health conditions. I welcome your whole self, and will honor those parts of you by working alongside them. Coaching is future focused work, so we will work together to envision how every part of you can positively contribute to your goals.

Who are your typical clients?

I love to work with people who are feeling curious, are ready to show up for themselves and be a collaborative member in making transformational, joyful change in their lives.

Who is the coach at Rainbow Willows?

Hey! Bella here (they/she). You can read more about me, my philosophy and my background here. I can’t wait to get to know you.

Do I have to be queer to work with you?

Nope! I work with queer, questioning and queer allied folks. Come as you are.

How long will we work together?

That is up to you! Many people choose to see their coaches on a consistent basis (typically weekly or bi-weekly) to build a space in their schedule that is just for them and keeps them on track with their vision and goals. When we discuss your goals and what kind of support you are looking for, we will decide together what kind of a schedule makes sense for you.

What is your pricing philosophy?

Coaching sessions are 50 minutes long, at a flat rate of $125. Accessibility to support is important to me, and I offer a fixed number of sliding scale spots (starting at $70) to allow people to access services in a way that is more equitable in relationship to their personal financial experience. Please reach out via the contact form and note your interest in accessing sliding scale services.

Do you take insurance?

I do not accept insurance. Payments are due within 24 hours after your appointment, though you may choose to pre-pay or pay in packages.

Do you offer packages?

Yes! I offer a monthly coaching package, which includes 4 weekly 50 minute sessions for the reduced rate of $100/session (a $100 savings per month). Packages must be used within 6 weeks unless otherwise agreed upon.

Where do sessions take place?

All sessions take place virtually, in either a video or a phone call format. This means I can work with folks like you all over the world!

How do we get started?

Fill out my quick interest form, and I will reach out to schedule an introductory call to see if we both feel we’re a good fit. I am so excited to meet you!
