My approach

Over the course of working together, you will manifest the possibilities for your life… and experience greater wellness overall.

I say this with absolute certainly because it’s happened for every single one of my clients who took the first step. You can read more about their stories here.

I use a variety of approaches to help you exercise what I like to call your “manifesting muscle.” Together, we plan a custom-made program that’s just for you. Depending on your goals, we may try some yoga, or use a wellness inventory to chart your course. We may focus on being present to what’s happening in the moment. Or explore your beliefs about money. We might play with humor and laugh. Other times, it may feel right to cry. There’s no “one-size-fits-all” here!

“Working with Maripat brought me much needed guidance and support at a very difficult time in my life. Her Life Coaching is extremely personalized. I can tell that she not only listens, but feels what I am saying in a way that gives her the insight to make recommendations that have contributed to me becoming ‘unblocked.’ “

In other words, I help my clients see past the limitations, blocks, and negative voices in their heads, and start uncovering, believing in, and actually living their own greatness.

Together, we practice compassion – not judgment – as you let go what no longer serves you. Sometimes, I may nudge you gently. I might suggest a book or other resource that I think you’ll appreciate. Other times, I may encourage or motivate you. It really all depends on what is needed in the moment.

And our coaching relationship doesn’t end when you hang up the phone. I “hold” my clients in my consciousness between calls. What this means is that on your journey to total wellness, you absolutely know for certain that I’m available to you for brief check-ins, troubleshooting and celebrations between our scheduled appointments. That’s a big part of my approach, too.

“Before working with Maripat, I was manifesting conditions of low-self esteem, lack, and negative thinking. I often thought of myself as less than others, uncreative, stuck and subject to the whims of other peoples desires and demands. With Maripat, I received support, encouragement, positive thought processing and insightful evaluation. Maripat suggests many resources for reading, tools for change to my thought process, and individualized assignments that help me change and grow into the spiritual, creative, abundantly prosperous, loving person I want to become.”
