Private Mindfulness Coachings

What happens in a Private Mindfulness Coaching? My mindfulness coachings are designed to bring the benefits of mindfulness to people with voice disorders in a one-on-one session. Coachings take place over Zoom. The cost is $85 for a 50-minute coaching.

A Private Mindfulness Coaching can be tailored to your unique needs. We will spend time talking about your specific challenges and exploring mindfulness work that can move you forward in your voice journey.

What might this look like? If it’s your first session, you will start by telling me the story of your voice. When did your voice problems start? What is your diagnosis? What treatments have you tried? What has helped you? What do you struggle with most? What are you hoping mindfulness can do for you?

Your answers will help me determine whether mindfulness is a good fit for you. I have taught mindfulness to over 100 people with voice disorders, and I have almost certainly encountered patients with struggles similar to yours. I can give you a clear idea of what mindfulness can and can’t do for someone in your situation. From there, we can explore specific practices together. I may assign you homework: a mindfulness exercise to listen to or something to read or consider.

Some of the most common things we address in mindfulness sessions are:

  • managing the stress of having a voice disorder

  • responding to physical tension, pain, and discomfort

  • moving through difficult emotions (sadness, anger, fear, grief and loss, shame and embarrassment)

  • letting go of the reactions of others (family, friends, sales people, etc.) to the voice disorder

  • dealing with social and emotional isolation

  • reappraisal, a process by which we reframe the meaning of adverse events to

    alter their emotional impact

  • moving towards acceptance: not everyone is ready to accept their voice disorder, but this is something we can begin to explore

  • cultivating self-compassion

  • developing a sense of agency in the face of difficulties
