Lisabeth Medlock, Ph.D., PCC, BCC, CDCS 

Psychologist and Certified Life and Career Coach, Consultant, TEDx Speaker, Writer  

 

​I am a psychologist, Professional Certified Coach through the International Coaching Federation, Board Certified Coach, and Certified Career Development Coach Specialist with a mission to help people and organizations do better by building capacity, fostering change, and finding solutions that lead to better results, whether they be personal, professional, or organizational. 

 

As an ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC) with 17 years of experience, I have worked with hundreds of clients of all ages and abilities to help them design and direct their desired futures. My approach is rooted in positive psychology and design thinking, and my passion is to help people navigate the changes in their lives. I serve as an advocate, solutions finder, change agent and resource. 

​​

believe in the power of individuals to create change. For 30 years I have used my skills and resources to impact disenfranchised communities; the homeless, victims of violence, the disabled and flood affected families.

 

I believe in sharing knowledge and tools. To that end I have been a blogger for the Huffington Post, a TEDx speaker, and an author. I have been published as a researcher and have developed myriad reports, training manuals and self-help booklets. 

​

My path has been both an exciting and challenging one, and I have navigated upheaval and major life changes. In 2010, I became visually-impaired after a traumatic injury. I translate my growth and lessons in transition into my work, especially the work I do with people with different abilities and chronic conditions. 

 

I am a mother of a teenager and I love to sing, work out and travel. Creativity, inquiry and authenticity is what I am usually seeking.

My Values and Principles 

  • I believe anyone can change and that it is never too late to start down a new road-no matter what life has dealt you.

  • I believe in personal accountability- you have the power to make choices that shape your life and create your path. 

  • I believe the key to results lies in basic principles of human relationships and interpersonal dynamics—listening, being heard, being seen, feeling useful, and being respected.

  • I believe in continuously challenging assumptions and embracing discovery and inquiry to better understand issues and needs-I don't take things for granted.

  • I believe in building the capacity of those I serve to design, develop, grow, and sustain skills, processes and changes.

  • I believe there is no such thing as “one size fits all”, so I tailor approaches to each person and project.

​

How I Coach 

​

  • My goal is to help you move from where you are now to where you want to be.

  • My role as coach is part accountability partner, part cheerleader and part inquisitor. 

  • My focus will be completely on you and what you want in life; I stand for you first and foremost, not just your goals.

  • You will ultimately be responsible for actions taken (or not taken) in your life throughout the process.

  • From time to time, I will make a specific, direct request, such as "Will you accomplish X by the end of the month?”

  • I will give you homework between sessions and typically ask you to determine two or three goals or actions to focus on between our sessions.

  "A few years ago I needed help getting myself and my business out of a slump. I found Lisabeth and she helped me turn my life around. She provided me with a no-nonsense approach and coaching that helped me get motivated, identify my strengths, and organize an approach to get back on track and move my life forward. She's a personal hero, pillar of strength, and brings energy and happiness to the table. I'm so glad I called Lisabeth and so glad she's always available."
