I help doctoral and masters students successfully finish their dissertations, graduate and move on to the next fabulous phase of their lives. Individualized dissertation coaching that works! 

You may be juggling work and family, as well as the demanding requirements of graduate studies. Procrastination, writer’s block and avoidance may be your current companions. Let me assure you: the feeling of drowning in constant stress and overwhelm doesn’t have to be a permanent state. I understand the challenges because I’ve been there myself as a graduate student…and have worked successfully as a dissertation coach with many other students and colleagues who have as well. We made it to the other side of the graduation finish line and you can too. 

 Research shows that the keys to dissertation completion are effective support and strategy.  I provide dissertation mentoring that addresses both key aspects.

I’ve coached many students just like you, in need of personalized Ph.D. guidance. 

How I help you get to the finish line as your dissertation coach. 

  Together, we clarify your current dissertation challenges, put a clear action plan in place that’s focused and doable and work together to make it happen, collaboratively and efficiently. Depending on your needs, I provide targeted feedback on all phases of the process, including your proposal development, literature review, research methodology and design, analysis, defence preparation, writing development and committee navigation.  We will likely share a few laughs along the way! 

Regular weekly meetings and ongoing email communication ensure accountability while providing individualized dissertation support.
