Specialized Services for Pilots & Aviation Professionals
Specialized Coaching for Pilots
Stress Management for Pilots is not a new subject. There are many life experiences that, when combined with a profession that requires the high levels of focus, meticulous skill, discernment, and accountability that is required of pilots, it is imperative that the mental and emotional resolve of our clients prevail. At Centerline Holdings LLC, we believe that every pilot has the ability to lead an intentionally balanced and fulfilling life—both inside and outside of the cockpit. Because Centerline is an organization with a Professional Pilot who is an Executive Coaching Psychologist and Clinical Psychology Post-Doctorate as its founder and coach, our philosophy is rooted in the belief that mental and emotional well-being are integral to overall health, and that goals-based coaching can be a powerful tool for achieving this balance that pilots need, appreciate, and deserve.
Coaching for Air Traffic Controllers
Centerline offers a variety of coaching services to meet the unique needs of our aviation clients, particularly air traffic controllers, who may be mentally and emotionally healthy, but may benefit from some stress management coaching which would help them to perform at their optimal levels. This translates into better work/life balance, and improved on the job positivity and resolve in the face of possible challenges from factors that are beyond their control. We also offer specialized coaching services for management of workload, performance, and cognitive functioning.

We also place a strong emphasis on building a trusting and supportive coaching relationship built on our understanding and experience with the roles and responsibilities of executive leadership.
Your Aviation Coaching Partner: How This Works…

We are here to listen and to walk you through the steps to becoming a better you..

Come as you are and we will meet you there…in a judgement free zone where we are excited to help you evolve and progress.
Identify Challenges
Through a structured intake process coupled with assisting in a more informal self-assessment, the specific challenges that need to be addressed as the starting point for a successful coaching experience are revealed.
Work Together to Devise a Plan
Centerline encourages the client to consider what he or she wants to achieve from the coaching experience and what improvements he or she would like to make in order to reach and exceed long-term goals. As coaches it is important to understand the client’s motivation and why their stated goals are important to achieve. This makes evaluation of the skills needed to accomplish the goals easier to acquire or sharpen as the objective is completed.
Implement Execution Strategies
Collaborative planning and execution of the coaching plan are key to setting reasonable expectations and devising measurable outcomes. Once the plan is set and the timeline for execution has commenced, both coach and client are able to work together to facilitate the plan with clarity and specificity.
Accomplish Milestones & Exceed Goals
Accomplishment of Milestones and focusing on not just meeting but exceeding goals as a pilot or aviation professional requires set expectations that are specific, measurable, attainable, and time sensitive. It involves communicating openly, listening actively, cultivating a “growth” mindset, and committing to over extending one’s reach to exceed goals.
Execute Sustainability Model
Once goals have been attained, it is important that the coach assists the client in employing resilience, cultivate emotional intelligence and continue trainings in resolve and appropriate application, channel positive behavioral outcomes to not only be appreciated but also utilize to motivate and inspire others.
Celebrate Success
Celebration begins with an opportunity for positive reflection and includes an opportunity to share successful experiences that may be used to motivate others. The Centerline Coaches believe in the inspired effects of celebration that triggers the chemical response in us that fuels happiness, pride, and confidence. These emotions are drivers for future success and helps others to know that these are attainable no matter where you begin or how long the road to success seems to be.
