How We Can Work Together
Wherever you're starting from, there's a place to begin.
Hi, I’m Linda.
You may know exactly what brought you here, or you may only know that there is something you want to understand more clearly.
Through one-to-one coaching, we can look beneath what is happening on the surface, understand what may be shaping the way you see yourself and your life, and begin to see more clearly what is true and what may be possible from here.
What Working Together Can Look Like
We begin with whatever brought you here.
As we talk, we can look more closely at what you are seeing, what may have shaped the way you understand it, and what you have come to believe about yourself, other people, or what is possible.
Sometimes that changes the way you understand the situation itself. Sometimes it changes what you recognize about yourself.
The point is not to rush toward an answer, but to give you enough space to see what becomes clearer and what you want to do with that.
My hope is that over time you begin to see more possibilities for yourself, feel more confident in the choices you make, and experience more freedom in the way you live your life.
Choose Where You Begin
The heart of the work is the same. The difference is how much time you want to give it.
You can begin with one conversation, continue from month to month, or choose a set period of time to stay with something longer.

Turning Point
When there is something you are ready to start looking at.
6–8 conversations over 6–10 weeks
Investment: $1,200–$1,550 CAD
It may be something that has recently come up, something you have wondered about for years, or something you simply know you are ready to spend some time understanding.
You do not need to know where it will lead. Sometimes you just know you are ready to look.
Path of Renewal
For when you know you want to commit to the work for a longer period of time.
12 conversations over 12–16 weeks
Investment: $2,250 CAD
Twelve conversations give us time to keep looking at what brought you here and follow what becomes clearer, without having to decide from one month to the next whether you want to continue.
Common Questions
What is the difference between coaching and therapy?
Coaching and therapy can sometimes touch on similar parts of a person’s life, but they are not the same thing.
My work is coaching. We look at what brought you here, what may be shaping the way you understand it, and what becomes clearer as we talk. Sometimes that means looking at something that has happened, something you have come to believe, a relationship, a decision, or simply a sense that something does not feel quite right. The focus is on understanding what is in front of you more clearly and what may become possible from there.
Coaching is not therapy, counselling, diagnosis, or treatment for mental-health conditions. If something comes up that would be better supported by a licensed mental-health professional, I will tell you that.
How do I know which option is right for me?
You do not have to know which option is right before you reach out. The exploratory call gives us a chance to talk about what brought you here, what you are looking for, and what kind of way of working together might make the most sense for you.
Is coaching faith-based?
Twelve Two is rooted in my Christian faith and in Romans 12:2. That verse has guided me for most of my life, although the way I understood it changed over time. What once felt limiting eventually became freeing as I came to understand renewal as no longer allowing the world around us to have the final word on who we are or what is true.
My faith shapes the way I see people and the way I approach this work, but you do not need to share my beliefs to work with me. There is room here for your own beliefs, questions, and understanding of what is meaningful to you.
How are the sessions conducted?
We meet online by video, or by phone if that feels more comfortable for you.
A Place to Begin
Sometimes beginning is simply having a place to say what has been sitting in your head for a while.
There is something different about hearing yourself say it out loud, having someone listen without rushing to fix it, and being able to stay with a thought long enough to understand what is actually there.
You may hear something in your own words that you had not noticed before. You may realize that what you thought was the problem is only part of it. Or something that has felt confusing may begin to make a little more sense.
Understanding something differently can bring more peace within yourself, more freedom in the choices you make, and more room to live in a way that feels true to who you are.
