Larry Porter Coaching

Coaching for life, relationships, work, and faith.

Dr. Porter helps individuals and couples get clearer about what feels stuck, understand the patterns underneath it, and move toward healthier ways of showing up in relationships, work, faith, and personal life. You do not need to choose the perfect category before reaching out.

Choose the area that needs attention most.

Faith & Discernment Coaching

For people who want faith to be part of the conversation around identity, purpose, relationships, decisions, or calling.

  • Discerning next steps in a difficult season
  • Exploring how faith connects with relationships or decisions
  • Naming where life feels misaligned

A steady process, not a script.

Once the situation is clearer, the work usually unfolds in three movements that help turn insight into practical change.

  1. Step 1

    Clarify what needs attention

    Name what feels stuck, what you want to be different, and what progress would look like in real life.

  2. Step 2

    Understand the patterns

    Look at the habits, assumptions, and dynamics that may be shaping the way you respond.

  3. Step 3

    Practice a steadier way forward

    Turn insight into clearer choices, healthier patterns, and grounded next steps.

A few practical questions, answered plainly.

If you are still deciding, these are the questions most people want answered before taking the next step.

This work is coaching, not therapy. Dr. Porter's work is informed by decades of clinical experience, but coaching is focused on clarity, growth, relationships, decisions, and practical movement toward the future you want to build. If therapy appears to be the better fit, that can be discussed honestly.

Coaching plans are tailored to the person, couple, or situation. Because the work is shaped around your goals, the support you need, and what kind of rhythm makes sense, pricing is discussed after Dr. Porter has a clearer understanding of what you are looking for. The discovery process is designed to help clarify fit before any coaching plan is recommended.

These coaching services do not bill insurance. Because this is coaching rather than therapy or medical treatment, clients should not assume it will be covered by insurance or eligible for HSA/FSA reimbursement. Some plans have specific rules, so you may want to check with your insurance provider, HSA/FSA administrator, or tax advisor before using those funds.

People come for different reasons: a relationship that feels strained, a decision that feels unclear, a pattern they keep repeating, a work dynamic that is hard to navigate, or a season of life that no longer feels aligned. The starting point is not a pre-set program. The work begins by clarifying what you want to be different and what may be getting in the way.

Yes. Coaching can support couples and close relationships when people want better conversations, clearer expectations, healthier patterns, and a more grounded way to move through tension. The focus is not blame. The focus is understanding what is happening, what each person wants to move toward, and what needs to change for the relationship to become healthier.

Yes. Many people want to show up differently at work, with more clarity, confidence, patience, honesty, or steadiness. Coaching can help you better understand workplace dynamics, recognize your own patterns, and navigate relationships with greater intention.

No. Faith is part of Dr. Porter's foundation, but it is handled with maturity and restraint. For clients who want faith included, it can be part of the conversation around meaning, identity, relationships, decisions, and discernment. For clients who do not want that dimension emphasized, it will not be forced.

Yes. Sessions are designed for remote work, so clients can meet with Dr. Porter from wherever they are. The first step is to answer a few brief questions so the discovery call can begin with a clearer sense of fit and focus.
