Let's have a conversation.
My coaching practice is about helping people navigate the messy, complex, sometimes painful process of real growth.
My clients tend to resonate with one or more of these descriptions:
• You see yourself and your situation with clarity—but what you understand doesn't always feed into what you do. You've heard people talk about "feeling your feelings" or "thinking with the body." You would like to explore that, but aren't sure how. You're looking for a process that can connect you with the full range of your intelligence—sensory, emotional, and conceptual.
• You are competent in what you do—but you sense that more is available. Even when you're fully meeting the demands of your life—and maybe especially then—it can seem like something is missing. You find yourself drawn toward exploring the vertical dimension: the attitudes you bring to circumstances, your sense of what matters, and your relationship to the unknown.
• You are curious about meditation. Maybe you've used an app, read books on the topic, or established a practice. But you aren't seeing the results you want, and maybe you aren't sure what there is to want—what "results" would look like, or whether that's even the point. It's not your fault: the field of meditation is muddled, imprecise, and full of sloppy thinking. Your time, however, is valuable. You're looking for practices that work, with principles you can understand.
My approach is life-affirming, non-dogmatic, often playful, and hard to summarize. I work with clients one-on-one in deep, exploratory conversations that unfold over time. Some people work with me for a few sessions to resolve a particular knot; others choose a longer engagement, integrating insights gradually into their ongoing development.
What people say about working with me:
"Andrew guided me in a Focusing session which led to an embodied realization about loneliness that's resulted in a persistent lightness around that feeling. He made it easy to explore a set of patterned behaviors I had often seen as shameful. I felt a sadness those patterns were protecting me from, and it was okay—actually beautiful. Andrew's skill was offering questions without any agenda. I didn't have the sense he was trying to get me to a particular place, so I felt free and even curious to explore scary feelings."
—Derek van Ittersum
"I had experimented a bit with inquiries like Focusing and the Option Method on my own, but it was practicing with Andrew that made these powerful methods real. He has a gentle, steadfast and down-to-earth manner that creates a comfortable environment for exploring vulnerable and elusive feelings, and a knack for finding just the right unexpected question to point me somewhere I would never have looked on my own. The results have been life-changing."
—Philip Weitzman
"Meeting and practicing with Andrew has completely transformed my meditation practice. Andrew introduced me to the life-affirming methods of Vajrayana Buddhism and has been a trusted advisor and guide in a practice that's completely changed how I engage with the world. More than that, he has a hard-to-quantify presence that makes weirdly ambitious and fun things happen. If you spend time with Andrew you'll find problems gently untangling themselves in an unfolding pathway of delightful and unusual possibilities."
—Jason Ganz
"I think you would make a great coach."
—Charlie Awbery, co-founder of Evolving Ground
