Welcome to the Compassionate Reasoning Coach
In a world full of sometimes bewildering change and challenge, Compassionate Reasoning offers something rare — a space to pause, reflect, and respond with courage and clarity.
Our coaching method is grounded in neuroscience, ethics, and the wisdom of the ages, enabling you to make informed choices with imagination, integrity, self-care, and compassion. Whether you're facing a personal crossroads or navigating challenges at work, home, or in your community and society, this is a highly flexible and deeply personalized coaching journey for those seeking to build their future with heart and wisdom.
Here is how it works fast. You write and describe in detail a complex challenge you need addressed, in up to 500 words. We respond with reflections edited and examined by Dr. Marc Gopin and team, based on the Compassionate Reasoning method. You then receive, within a day or even two hours, a detailed response tailored to your exact words and situation. You reflect on the response and follow up in more sessions, as often as you wish. Equity pricing available on request.
