Executive and Professional Coaching
In today’s fast-paced business world, coaching is a popular approach to developing leaders at all levels in organizations—but not all coaching is created equal. While the coaching industry is booming, with many individuals labeling themselves as “coaches,” the field remains largely unregulated. At Stoked.live, we set ourselves apart by offering executive and professional coaching rooted in behavioral science, delivered by seasoned doctoral-level psychologists.
Coaching, when delivered by a qualified and experienced expert, is more than a trendy buzzword—it’s a proven process that helps growth-oriented leaders gain new insights, refine their thinking, leverage strengths, and change their behavior to improve performance. Our stoked team has over 30 years of combined experience in the behavioral sciences, offering evidence-based, customized coaching to executives and professionals across a wide range of industries. Our clients include leaders in technology, medicine, law, fire departments, nonprofits, and the pharmaceutical sector.
Our coaching practice is built on a foundation of rigorous scientific research, including contributions to the field, such as the SAGE Encyclopedia of Theories of Personality in Psychology, and peer reviewed research in mentoring best practices. With deep expertise in human behavior change and advanced certifications in coaching diagnostics and tools such as the HPI, HDS, MVPI, TKI, FIRO-B, MBTI, CPI, and Strong, our coaching interventions are informed by the latest scholarly research, ensuring that clients receive practical strategies and action planning that drive real results.
Whether you’re a seasoned executive or an aspiring leader, stoked coaching offers personalized support, guidance, and challenges designed to help you maximize your impact and influence within your organization.

Psychological Safety & Team Building
In today’s fast-paced, innovative work environments, fostering psychological safety is crucial for startups seeking long-term success. Psychological safety means creating a workspace where employees feel empowered to take risks, voice concerns, share unique ideas, ask questions, and admit mistakes—all without fear of judgment or negative consequences. This freedom to be open and candid is essential to building trust, creativity, and collaboration within teams.
Our team of experienced psychologists specializes in enhancing psychological safety for startups and small to medium-sized businesses in the San Francisco Bay Area. We understand that psychological safety is not a simple on-or-off switch—it’s a dynamic process that evolves as your team grows. Through tailored workshops, assessments, and personalized strategies, we help leaders create environments where innovation flourishes, and employees feel valued and supported.
Research shows that a lack of psychological safety stifles creativity, hinders open communication, and ultimately reduces both employee well-being and business outcomes. By addressing these challenges, we empower your organization to unlock its full potential. Our expert team blends psychological insight with business acumen to guide you toward stronger team dynamics, improved communication, and a culture of continuous learning.
At the intersection of science and passion, we’re committed to helping you achieve not only workplace success but also holistic well-being. Whether you’re striving for a healthier work-life balance or seeking to elevate team performance, our goal is to help your company thrive. Let us be your partner in building a psychologically safe environment where your team can innovate, connect, and grow—together.
Fuel your team’s success with expert psychological support.
