INDIVIDUAL COACHING
Coaching for Humanitarian Professionals and Leaders
Clarity, connection, and capacity — for those holding space for others.
Working in humanitarian or development contexts can stretch your capacity in every direction — especially when you’re responsible for the well-being, decisions, and direction of others.
Whether you’re navigating a leadership role, discerning your next move, or simply trying to stay grounded in the midst of it all — coaching offers a space to pause, reflect, and move forward with clarity.
At KRC, coaching isn’t just about productivity or performance. It’s about supporting the whole human behind the role — so you can live and lead with greater intention, presence, and sustainability. Reconnect to what matters. Move forward with clarity. Stay whole along the way.
Designed for field staff, leaders, and mission-driven professionals. See how we support Humanitarians at every stage.
Support tailored to your context, values, and goals
KRC Coaching is for you if you are:
A humanitarian or mission-driven professional at a personal or career crossroads
A mid- to senior-level leader navigating change, conflict, or decision fatigue
Feeling burned out, disconnected, or uncertain how to move forward
Ready to reconnect with your values and lead from a more grounded, intentional place
Seeking support that honors your complexity — not just your job title
What Coaching Can Help With:
For individuals and leaders navigating meaningful, complex work — KRC clients bring a wide range of questions and longings to the coaching space. Coaching isn’t therapy, and it’s not about advice-giving — it’s a collaborative process that helps you uncover your own answers and take meaningful, values-aligned steps forward.
We support you to:
Clarify your next move in a career, role, or relationship
Navigate transitions, decisions, or questions of calling
Leading through uncertainty, change, or organizational complexity
Strengthening presence, communication, and trust as a people leader
Reconnect to purpose and motivation
Build boundaries, resilience, and confidence
Move through burnout, self-doubt, or inner conflict
Integrating personal values into your leadership practice
Making courageous decisions with clarity and care
Live more intentionally, sustainably, and in alignment with your values
You don’t need to be in crisis to benefit from coaching — just ready for something to shift.
A Word to Leaders:
Leadership in this space is not easy. It often means holding the weight of others’ needs while setting aside your own. But here’s the truth: your sustainability matters, too.
Coaching offers a space to reflect on what you’re carrying, reclaim your own clarity, and lead from a place of strength that’s grounded — not performative.
You don’t have to figure it all out alone.
What Makes KRC Coaching Unique?
Kate brings over two decades of experience in humanitarian work to her coaching — and understands the unique pressures, paradoxes, and patterns that can show up in this field.
You won’t have to explain why you're exhausted, or why slowing down feels risky. You’ll be met with empathy, not judgment — and supported to move at your own pace.
KRC coaching is:
Person-centered – You are not a project. You're a person.
Solution-focused – We help you discover what already works, and build on that.
Trauma-informed – We work gently and respectfully, especially when your nervous system is carrying a lot.
Whole-person aligned – We don't isolate your work from your life. Or your mind from your body.
Ethically grounded – Confidential. Safe. Anchored in trust.

What Our Clients Say
Reflections from leaders and professionals who’ve experienced coaching with KRC.
"Coaching with Kate gave me permission to take myself seriously again — not in a rigid way, but in a whole, life-affirming way."
“Kate’s coaching helped me cut through the overwhelm and make aligned, confident decisions at a time when everything felt uncertain. I now lead with more clarity and less reactivity.”
“As a senior leader, I often felt isolated and stretched thin. Coaching gave me space to think strategically — not just react — and reminded me I don’t have to carry everything alone.”
“I’ve worked with coaches before, but this was different. Kate brought deep understanding of the humanitarian space, and held space for me as a full person — not just a professional trying to keep it together.”
“This work helped me reconnect with what I actually want — not just what I should be doing. It gave me the language and courage to start making different choices.”
“Our sessions felt like a pause and a reset — each one. I felt more grounded, more spacious, and more able to lead with integrity in my role.”
“Kate’s questions were gentle but powerful. She helped me see patterns I’d been stuck in — and shift out of them with dignity and agency.”
“I was navigating a major leadership transition and questioning my capacity to stay in the work. Coaching helped me redesign how I lead — in a way that’s more effective and more sustainable.”
“Kate has a rare ability to hold space for the human side of leadership. Our sessions helped me shift from surviving mode to leading with presence, purpose, and perspective.”
“This was one of the best professional investments I’ve made. Coaching gave me the strategic clarity and inner steadiness I needed to lead through change without losing myself.”
“I didn’t need someone to tell me what to do — I needed someone who could ask the right questions, challenge my assumptions, and support me to lead with greater integrity. That’s exactly what I got.”
