1:1 Leadership Coaching
for women, queer, neurodivergent, immigrant & BIPOC leaders in
social work, mental health services, community-based & social services, advocacy & social impact, and nonprofit sectors
in Ontario, Nova Scotia, Alberta
Lead from a Place of Power, Integrity and Wholeness
You’re a leader navigating complex systems. You care deeply about your team, your mission and your community. But you’re also carrying a lot: burnout, conflict, self-doubt, systemic barriers, and emotional overwhelm.
This leadership coaching space is for you if you’re looking for a trauma-informed, identity-affirming, deeply relational and pragmatic space to reflect, reset and lead with greater clarity, confidence, care and accountability.
What Leadership Coaching Offers
Power with Purpose
Explore how you use and experience power, based on Julie Diamond’s Diamond Power Index™. Learn to align your inner authority with your external role and show up with clarity and purpose.
Courageous Leadership
Integrate tools from Brené Brown’s Dare to Lead™ to build shame resilience, navigate tough conversations, and cultivate trust, vulnerability and integrity in your leadership style.
Authentic, Anti-Oppressive Practice
Draw from Anima Leadership’s framework to lead with equity, humility and grounded presence, especially across differences in your organization and on your teams. We explore identity, power, privilege and belonging, in real time.
Strengths-Based Clarity
Use VIA Character Strengths at Work to identify and expand the unique traits that already make you a strong and values-driven leader.
Together, We Can Explore
Chronic stress and burnout prevention
Navigating ethical tensions and spiritual / moral pain
Leadership isolation and identity-based impostor syndrome
Conflict resolution and team dynamics
Boundary-setting and sustainable decision-making
Workplace accommodations or role transitions
Rebuilding self-trust and visioning forward
This is not just professional coaching. It’s a healing, strategic and identity-affirming space to help you lead from your wholeness, not from survival mode.
Who I Work With
This coaching space is especially for:
Nonprofit and grassroots leaders
Program managers and team leads
Community organizers and activists
Executive directors and operations staff
Equity-focused leaders and culture shifters
Women, queer, racialized, immigrant and neurodivergent folks in leadership roles
You don’t need a specific title. If you’re holding responsibility, care or influence, then you are a leader!

EQUITABLE PRICING OPTIONS
I offer a tiered pricing model for Leadership Coaching to support leaders working across diverse organizational, non-profit, and community-based contexts.
Rates are chosen collaboratively and are grounded in capacity and access, not performance or outcomes.
3-tier Model for leaders paying independently
This option is for leaders who choose to independently invest in leadership coaching.
Accessible rate = $140 + HST
Intended for new or emerging leaders, particularly those working in grassroots or non-profit settings with limited access to professional development funds.
Standard rate = $180 + HST
Intended for securely employed leaders with relative financial stability.
Resourced rate = $220 + HST
Intended for financially secure leaders who are able to pay a higher rate in support of equitable access.
2-tier Model for organizations paying for leaders or teams
When leadership coaching is paid for by an organization—whether for an individual leader or as part of a broader consulting or coaching engagement—a two-tier organizational rate applies.
Standard Organizational Rate = $180 + HST
For grassroots or non-profit organizations navigating funding or financial constraints.
Resourced Organizational Rate = $220 + HST
For organizations with stable funding and greater financial capacity.
Organizational rates apply when coaching is funded through professional development budgets, third-party payment arrangements or organizational contracts.
If you’re unsure which rate applies to you or your organization, we can discuss this together during a consultation.
My goal is to find a pricing option that feels ethical, sustainable and aligned for everyone involved.
