mindfulness Coaching

Individualized coaching for anyone who wants to learn mindfulness, who is in transition, or who seeks to clarify their unique life path. Depending on your need, I use a variety of research-based mindfulness approaches including guided meditation, self-inventory inquiries, discussion, and creative practices. Using mindfulness as a basis for self-reflection, I support you in exploring your deep intentions, your gifts, values, and limiting beliefs that may be holding you back. You’ll leave each session with a plan and tools that can be immediately implemented for positive growth aligned with your individual purpose. For ages 14-adult, on Zoom or in person. Please note: I am not a therapist, and coaching is not a subsitute for psychotherapy. Email me at kate@openwindowmindfulness.com for more information.

workshops and classes

Book me for group classes! Specially-crafted lessons introduce a range of experiential practices in your space or mine, or on Zoom. For kids and teens, age-appropriate, fun, interactive games and creative activities connect mindfulness with familiar, everyday experiences. For adults, classes include a range of themes and accessible approaches tailored to your needs, with support for establishing a regular mindfulness practice.

OWM has offered classes at Creswell Wellness Center in Creswell, Oregon, Cocoon Healing Arts in Santa Monica, CA, and currently through InsightLA and HERE on Zoom!

Creativity and Mindfulness have a natural kinship, and we have unique hands-on workshops to enhance both. Through the interplay of meditation, writing, movement, and art exercises, participants discover an authentic, creative voice. These workshops have been offered at InsightLA, The Brentwood Art Center, and in home studios.

Staff support

Many businesses and non-profits recognize the benefits of mindfulness for managers and employees. I’ve offered staff mindfulness training to The People Concern, the municipal employees of Culver City, CA, and for staff and volunteers of POPS Clubs. Whether you're looking for a one-time training or an ongoing series of mindfulness sessions, I offer experiential, fun practices that emphasize wellness, mitigate burnout, and help build group identity.

school programs

As a former classroom teacher, I know how schools operate and I understand the pressures school communities face. Mindfulness can be of great benefit to students and teachers at any age or career stage. As a graduate of Mindful Schools yearlong Mindful Teacher Certification Program, I have been trained in age-appropriate, trauma-informed, and diversity-conscious curriculum. Some current and recent school clients include Al Kennedy School in Saginaw, OR, Creswell, OR School District, Brentwood School, Center for Early Education, Loreto School, and New Roads School in Los Angeles, CA, the Culver City, CA School District, Pico Rivera, CA school district, Insight in Schools, and Project Marigold. I offer consulting, single sessions, or comprehensive school-based mindfulness programs using internationally-recognized best practices.

Clinical settings

 Mindful approaches to mental and physical healthcare supports the work you do and provides calm and comfort to staff, patients and their families. Healthcare workers who practice mindfulness experience less burnout and greater resiliency. Mindfulness offers your clients tools for mitigating the stress of healing. My training and experience includes working with those suffering from trauma and those with brain differences. Open Window Mindfulness has offered mindfulness to staff at Martin Luther King Jr. Community Hospital, Safe Place for Youth, NAMI (National Alliance for Mental Illness), Rapaport Dermatology, and others.
