"Cliff Barry is one of very few men I totally trust to facilitate my personal work. When I need clarity, when my path is unclear, Cliff is a man I call upon. His clear, non-judgmental, loving approach works wonders for my soul." - Rich Tosi, co-founder of the ManKind Project
"Vicki Woodard has helped me process several very difficult personal issues and transitions. I have found her coaching support to be excellent. She exudes compassion and creates the space for total acceptance of my situation so that I have the safety to do my deep work. I am picky about who I work with and believe that Vicki has huge expertise and wisdom." - Erica Groschler, President, TPS Consulting, Ltd.

Coaching for your personal life
Coaching for your professional life
Shadow Work® Coaching is a deeply transformational approach designed to help men and women interested in personal growth to see, understand and transform their shadows. A "shadow" is a denied or repressed part of the self that can, if left unexamined, control our actions in ways we might not choose or be aware of.
Because in Shadow Work® Coaching we focus on slowly and gently uncovering shadowed instincts or unseen patterns, we find that this approach often creates more safety for people to grow and learn. Paradoxically, bringing out the fearful or unwanted parts of ourselves, so they can be seen without shame or judgment, allows people to evolve slowly, safely, without confrontation or pressure and with full choice — while at the same time supporting profound change.
