     My name is Wanda Austin-Williams, MSW. I have a Masters Degree in Social Work and have worked several years as a clinical therapist.  I also hold a Bachelors Degree in Business Management . Having trained as a clincal therapist and with a background in business managment, I feel gives me an edge in relating to others and helping people identify and achieve their goals.

     As a social worker, I have had extensive training in effective communication, psychology, behavorial therapy, human relationships and self exploration. For the past few years I have worked as a psychotherapist at a large outpatient behavioral services clinic. In that capacity, I have had the opprotunity to work with a variety of treatment conditions and problem areas. I have witnessed the powerful effects of how working one on one toward achieving a common goal,  can be so effective in helping to facilitate personal change, growth, insight, courage and strength.

     Working as a psychotherapist is a very rewarding career; however, I feel my purpose is to do more. like therapy, coaching is a supportive relationship between you and a trained professional who can assist you in creating a more fulfilling life. While therapy focuses on healing the past and helping you to better understand your feelings, life coaching is about taking action. It's about moving forward and taking steps toward designing a positive future. While a therapist might ask the question "How do you feel?," a life coach often asks "What do you want and how would you like to feel?," and then help you to develop strategies to obtain your personal or professional goals. Over the years, I have developed a style of working that is holistic, solution-focused and client collaborative. That is what personal coaching is all about

     The words "Total Es'sence" is representative of how I approach the coaching relationship, Webster dictionary defines Essence as  " the inherent qualities that make something what it is.. It is something made without accident. It is unique. My goal as your coach and mentor is to help you define your "Essence", achieve your goals and begin to live your life's purpose in its totality.

    I look forward to working with you. Please call us 734-657-3209 or email:totalessence0@lycos.com for more information or a personal consultation.
