What you seek is seeking you.

Whatever direction our work takes, my role as your coach is to support you in creating the life you envision and to guide you in making practical changes. I will listen with curiosity, challenge you when appropriate, and offer suggestions for how to move forward.


The Wisdom Within
Transforming Your Life Through the Enneagram
A Virtual Six Month Intensive Program
Integrating Individual Coaching and Group Work
September 2023-February 2024
The Enneagram is a map for personal transformation. It illuminates patterns that keep us engaging in behaviors that undermine what we want and describes in detail the ways in which we veer away from our true self. Most importantly it provides a clear map back to our true nature.
In this program we will take a deep dive into our inner terrain using the profound teachings of the Enneagram. Together we will build a close-knit community committed to personal growth. Through a powerful and dynamic combination of individual coaching and group work we will:
-
Uncover our habitual patterns that no longer serve us.
-
Better recognize our inner critic and cultivate self-compassion.
-
Enhance our capacity to have meaningful relationships.
-
Gain personal and professional leadership skills.
-
Develop practices that support transformation.
-
Expand our ability to bring our gifts and strengths into the world.
Limited to 12 participants, THE WISDOM WITHIN is designed for newcomers and experienced students alike. Individual coaching sessions will alternate with group exploration throughout the six months.

360 Assessment
I am certified in the Leadership Circle Profile (LCP) assessment and development tool leadershipcircle.com. LCP measures and provides leaders feedback through the lens of the Universal Model. It is the only instrument that measures the two primary leadership domains – Creative Competencies and Reactive Tendencies – and integrates this information so that key opportunities for leadership development immediately become clear.
Individuals and Couples Coaching
For individuals and couples who seek to strengthen their relationship to themselves and those around them, I offer a deep dive into communication and relationship dynamics. I use the Enneagram as a portal to illuminate this exploration.

"Every class was literally life-changing as new ways of understanding ourselves and our relationships were revealed. We were all especially impressed by Lara’s skill at distilling a very complex system down to simple fundamental ideas. Lara also created and sustained a space where everyone felt emotionally safe and, consequently, the connection between the group members became quite deep as the series progressed."
