Coaching for Men

If you do the things that you always do, you'll get the results that you've always gotten. Aren't you ready for something different? But making changes in your life can be a great challenge, and best faced with an ally in your corner. That's where working with Jim comes in.

In addition to working with you as a professional life coach, Jim has particular expertise in men's issues. Maybe you're needing a new perspective on your feminine partner's behavior. Perhaps you're experiencing lack of sexual desire. Or maybe you've got a superabundance of desire and you need ways to work with it. Maybe you're experiencing overwhelm and you need someone to help you "hold the ground" in a masculine way until you can do it for yourself. Or you're ready for a major life transition and you'd like to make that passage as powerfully and gracefully as possible. Or: you want to uncover your purpose and live it fully.

Jim has led men's groups and coached men for many years. There's not a lot he hasn't seen and worked with. You're invited to contact him and see if his wisdom and expertise fits your need.

Feedback from men who've worked with Jim

"I'm a world-class headhunter and am a professional at recognizing and evaluating human potential: heart, talent, skill and experience. Jim is my top candidate as a sexuality/relationship/life coach and a men's group leader. He is a full-spectrum man who has helped and deeply touched me, my brother, and at least seven other powerful and amazing men I know personally. These men are highly respected teachers, writers, organizers, businessmen, therapists and healers. Jim is awake, spiritual, compassionate, and gentle while simultaneously being powerful, male, connected to his body, in relationship, and fully in the world. Our one-on-one coaching sessions have formed the pillars of the temple of the realization of my deepest desires."
—Eric Schneider, Global Executive Recruiter, Santa Cruz, CA

"Jim listens deeply, discerns the heart of the matter, and returns it back to me compassionately, without judgment, and without a fixed agenda. His insightful reflection helps me more fully accept myself as I am, and from there, I’m more able to choose where I want to go. I don’t simply measure my weekly sessions with  Jim by what I’ve accomplished on the outside, but by the more important internal changes that have taken place."
—John Slicker, Gardiner, NY

"Jim’s ability to help me clarify my situation enables me to be very proactive — and very alive — in my life. Jim hears more than just my words; it’s as if he’s listening to the divine plan for me, yet he lets me discover it on my own. The challenges that he offers motivate me to challenge myself, and he doesn’t support my inner gremlins. The increase in clarity and focus in my life has been exponential!"
—Dal Miranda, San Jose, CA

"Thanks to the combination of group work and private coaching I did with Jim, I’m now doing the things I’ve been meaning to do for years. Jim and the other men helped me to look at my core issues and to find ways to move beyond my boundaries. The process was challenging, emotional, and a hell of a lot of fun. Jim is a gifted, insightful and dedicated facilitator. If you want to discover more about who you are, and how to make the most of your life, I highly recommend this work to you."
—Michael Wilk, Software Developer, Scotts Valley, CA

"Jim managed to focus in and intuit my personality and my life situation in very short order and then guide me (or help me guide myself) to some remarkable insights and understandings. His method was always gentle and caring, but also unafraid to be quick, daring, and surprising. We went in directions I often didn't anticipate, so by the end of our session, I'd feel I was in new territory and grateful for that."
—Walker Abel, Co-director, Sierra Institute, Humboldt State University

"The work that Jim has done with two men who I'm very close to has transformed them in ways that nothing else has. Thanks, Jim!"
—Willow Dea, Occupational Therapist
