Danielle RatcliffDanielle has worked in the government and private
sectors for over 18 years as a behavior management therapist, school social worker, parole and probation group facilitator and behavior consultant. She sees it a privilege to be able to work with organizations, families and individuals instilling skills and knowledge to enable them to respond to life and not react. As a follower of Jesus and member of 'Open Door Christian Ministries', Danielle believes that when we are able to see the world through the Lord's Lens, we are able to own the purpose and plan He has for our lives. This is the primary reason that she decided to open Empower Life Skills to empower others to achieve all that that they were created to become. Contact Danielle here |

What is coaching and how does it work?
At Empower Life Skills Coaching we incorporate CBT - Cognative Behavioral Therapy - a talking therapy, aimed at increasing human happiness through personal empowerment.
Through conversation, clients are helped to understand why they find themselves in their current situation and are led to find strategies to move towards a better future.
Different life coaches work in different ways, Empower coaching utilizes a down-to-earth cognitive approach - in that it's main tool is the client's own thought processes.
Life coaching differs from counseling in that it is primarily focused on the present and the future. It may be necessary to look back to identify the root causes of some unhelpful thinking patterns and then untie some knots, but then we come back to the "where are we now?" and the "where do we want to go?".
