COACHING SERVICES
Whether you have an unwritten dream, a half-written draft, or a full-length manuscript... coaching sessions with Alexa Johansen, Ph.D., will support you in refining and reaching your writing goals.
​
Coaching sessions serve as a consistent source of support and guidance, as well as mutually agreed upon accountability checkpoints. Depending on your project, we may brainstorm a comprehensive outline, develop the narrative, sharpen themes, affirm strengths, identify gaps or weaknesses, workshop the writing, and/or set attainable goals.

​
Editing services are offered for all types of creative works (e.g., poetry, short stories, novels, memoirs, essays, children's books), academic works (e.g., essays, thesis projects, dissertations, presentations), and professional works (e.g., copy, reports, handbooks and manuals, marketing and/or training materials, public speaking, presentations).
