Amy Colgan-Niemeyer, A Certified Life Coach
Guiding Individuals to Build Confidence, Recreate Their Lives and Be Their True Selves
Welcome!
Identity Perception Program
Information Page
Thanks for your interest in the Identity Perception Coaching Program. We'll start out by scheduling a complimentary 45-minute discovery call (Click here to schedule it) to talk a bit about where you are now, and where you want to be - what brought you to seek out coaching and what you want to accomplish through coaching. And, I will be happy to answer any questions you may have about coaching.
-
You may want to make a change in your life, such as pursue a different career, leave an unsatisfying relationship, go to school, become more independent, get more involved in your community, make new friends, move to a different part of the country or world, but your identity (who you think you are) holds you back. You procrastinate, talk yourself out of it, become stuck, unable to do what you really want to do--live a more fulfilling life as your new more authentic self.

Life coach disclaimer: I am a life coach. I am not a licensed health care provider or therapist. I cannot provide medical advice or diagnosis, nor can I practice therapy.
-
As an IPP coach, I guide healthy individuals who find themselves wanting to change their identity but not knowing where to start or feeling stuck in the process, helping them to move forward in order to live more fulfilling lives.
-
My role as your coach:
-
My intention in this program is to guide you toward living more authentically--being who you are. Again, you can do anything you set your mind to. You may have to or wish to make adjustments to your identity along the way. That's fine. Being flexible is key to living a fulfilled life: Tackling stumbling blocks, making changes when needed, tweaking your identity as you go along.
-
I'll support you in making your own decisions and in moving toward your desired outcome, including holding you accountable for completing assignments, completing action steps, showing up for coaching sessions, and so on. We can discuss what forms of accountability work best for you.
-
Your coaching agreement and my program cancellation policy will have more information about what is expected of you as my client as well as what you can expect of me as your coach. The coaching agreement page has a list of agreements based on particular coaching plans.
-
I believe in you and offer to guide you toward your self-directed stepping-stones in a way that will aid you in accomplishing desired outcomes. I will not impose my opinions on you, although I may share personal experience occasionally and assist with idea-generation/brainstorming, all with the express purpose of empowering you to move forward toward your desired outcomes.
