Fatherhood is a journey. Let's make it intentional.

Coaching here is designed around the individual father: his experiences, his relationships and his goals. There is no single template, because there is no single kind of father.

A new chapter is beginning

New & Expecting Fathers

Becoming a father changes everything. The anticipation, the uncertainty, the responsibilities and the questions that don't always get asked. A space to prepare, reflect and find your footing as you enter fatherhood.

Your child is growing. So are you.

Fathers of Teenagers

The relationship changes as children become teenagers. Communication becomes different. Independence becomes important. Sometimes the distance grows before either person realizes it. Explore how to understand your teenager, reconnect and remain someone they can turn to.

Finding your footing again

Single & Separated Fathers

When family life changes, so does your role within it. A space to work through the emotional and practical challenges of separation, single fatherhood and building a new relationship with your children.

Building a family in a different way

Stepdads & Blended Families

Fatherhood doesn't always begin with biology. Building trust, finding your place and developing meaningful relationships within a blended family takes intention, patience and understanding.

Becoming more intentional

Personal Fatherhood Development

You don't have to be struggling to want to grow. For fathers who want to become more present, self-aware and intentional about the relationships and legacy they're building.

I am not there to tell a father what kind of father to be. I'm there to help a father clarify and actualize the version he's already trying to become.

Growth without judgment. Strength without emotional suppression. Responsibility without shame. That's the ground this work stands on. Fatherhood isn't something you automatically know how to do. It's something you continually learn, develop and build.

How the first conversation works.

Everything begins with a relaxed, no-pressure conversation. We talk about where you are, what's on your mind and what you're hoping for. Together we get a sense of whether coaching is a good fit.

There's nothing to prepare and nothing to prove. You bring yourself, honestly, and we go from there.

Start a Conversation

And where its boundaries are.

Coaching is for fathers who want to reflect, understand themselves and grow. You don't need to be struggling. You only need to be willing.

Coaching is not psychotherapy, medical treatment, legal advice or crisis intervention. Where those needs exist, Tanguy will encourage you to work with qualified professionals, and that encouragement is part of doing this work responsibly. In a crisis, call or text 9-8-8 or call 911.

The first step is simply a conversation.
