Welcome to Little Red Elephant's workshops, classes and courses page, where I offer a variety of psycho-educational and skill-based groups designed to enhance your life skills. Workshops, classes and courses are suitable for anyone looking to grow personally and professionally.
These groups are psycho-educational and skill-based, and although they may be valuable, beneficial, and even theraputic, they are NOT counselling or therapy.
WORKSHOPS
focus on a single topic for three hours each
are offered three times a year, either individually or as part of a comprehensive 12-week series.
CLASSES
follow a particular topic for 12 or 20 weeks
are offered two or three times per year
are sometimes a "closed" group, for confidentiality and so the same cohort learns together over time.
COURSES
are the pre-recorded versions of some of the workshops and classes
are still in production.

I help people through transition and change to make better decisions and get more satisfying outcomes.
For example, I won't pick your new job for you, but I WILL help you develop the soft skills to keep it and to succeed at it.
I have a life-long fascination with human potential. The corner stone of what I've learned is that: most of us are stronger, smarter and wiser than we have ever been willing to believe or accept.
I bring more than 40 years of experience in mentoring, leadership and personal development to an approach that I call "Story Coaching".
Story Coaching allows you to see and embrace the stronger, smarter, wiser, beautiful you that was there all along.
Through the lens of story coaching, I can help you untangle the parts of the story that aren't yours from the parts of the story that are yours, so that you can see yourself more honestly, make better choices and decisions, and get better outcomes in your personal and professional life.
And I will support you to develop and refine the skills needed to make these awarenesses concrete.
So, what do you want to change?
