The quality of your leadership, partnerships, influence, contribution, and intimacy are all shaped by your capacity to relate—first to yourself (your level of inner authority and self honesty) then to others (relational authority and authenticity).
Many high-achievers unknowingly still rely on relational strategies that once helped them survive, succeed, and belong: accommodating, over-functioning, performing, self-editing, conflict avoidance, and managing other people's comfort. While these strategies can create a certain level of success, they often come at the cost of authenticity, fulfillment, trust, intimacy, and impact.
The Art of We coaching is designed to help you identify and transform the relational patterns that are limiting what's possible in your most important relationships and your capacity to lead others.
"I had these stubborn (and now I realize unconscious) habits of putting myself in a power-down position with others that was not only hurting people's perception of me, but also my ability to influence and be trusted by others. It only took a couple sessions to change these blindspots into moves that had a huge impact on people's trust in my leadership. I'm so grateful for our work together!"
— Private Client
Whether you're a leader struggling to create the trust, influence, and alignment you know you're capable of, or you're seeking more fulfilling personal and intimate relationships, this coaching helps you close the gap between where you are and what you truly want.
This coaching is for individuals ready to:
"Krista impeccably supports her clients to make the bold changes, both internally and externally, that are required for growth and she does so with grace, with grit and so much care. Anybody fortunate enough to receive the gifts of Krista's heart and mind will be transformed for the better."
- Private Client
"I kept getting confusing interpersonal outcomes that I didn't want and I couldn't figure out why...it wasn't until Krista helped me see how my actions were creating negative impacts even though my intentions were completely the opposite. Her simple, straightforward, honest approach had me feel seen and supported in ways I've never experienced."

Every 1:1 coaching engagement is customized based on your goals, challenges, and the outcomes you're seeking to create.
Some clients engage in a focused series of sessions to address a specific leadership challenge, relationship dynamic, conflict, transition, or decision. Others choose an ongoing monthly coaching partnership for deeper transformational work, real-time support and sustained growth over time.
For individuals who qualify and for whom it is clinically appropriate, I also offer psychedelic-assisted work as part of the coaching and transformational process. These experiences can provide unique access to unconscious patterns, relational dynamics, and limiting beliefs that may be difficult to access through insight alone. When appropriate, I collaborate with my husband, psychiatrist and psychotherapist Dr. Will Van Derveer, co-founder of the Integrative Psychiatry Institute and co-author of Psychedelic Therapy, to provide comprehensive clinical support. All psychedelic work is conducted within appropriate clinical, legal, and ethical guidelines.
For those seeking greater clarity and self-awareness, I also offer my optional Relational Leadership 360 Assessment.
The greatest limitations to our leadership, relationships, and impact are often hidden in our blind spots—the gap between how we intend to show up and how others actually experience us. The 360 gathers confidential feedback from the people who know and work with you best, providing powerful insights into your strengths, growth opportunities, and the relational patterns shaping your results.
Whether our work focuses on leadership, intimate relationships, professional partnerships, or life transitions, the goal is the same: to help you close the gap between who you are, how you show up, and what's possible.
