Individual Coaching

In Their Words

"My work with Arin has been genuinely transformative. From our very first session, she was able to synthesize patterns from different aspects of my life and share insights that other healers and experts had not been able to see or articulate. She offered practical solutions that I could implement in real time, which made an immediate difference."

Dr. Arin N. Reeves

Arin is a researcher, best-selling author, and trusted advisor to leaders navigating the evolving demands of leadership and workplace culture. She works at the intersection of emotional intelligence, energy management, human centered leadership, ethical influence, diversity and inclusion, generational dynamics, and organizational change.

Rooted in neurobehavioral research, her programs at the Nextions Academy examine how cognitive, emotional, and behavioral systems operate under pressure and translate that science into practical tools for sustainable performance and authentic leadership. She challenges the assumption that success must come at the cost of exhaustion and helps leaders create meaningful impact without sacrificing their energy, clarity, or humanity.

She is the founder and managing director of Nextions and has consulted with and coached leaders and organizations for more than twenty five years. A former practicing attorney and Northwestern University faculty member, she currently serves as a Fulbright Specialist focused on effective leadership models in global contexts.

Coaching with Dr. Arin N. Reeves

Coaching provides the structured space to step back, assess clearly, and recalibrate intentionally. Working directly with Dr. Arin N. Reeves, you will examine what is getting in the way and what must shift so that clarity, steadiness, and grounded leadership are no longer built on diminishing reserves.

This is not performance optimization for its own sake. It is a deliberate process rooted in the Academy's research-informed framework, designed to meet you where you are and align with the depth of recalibration you are ready to undertake.

To the right, you will find our key coaching categories — while each reflects a distinct area of focus, they are not fixed boundaries and can be mixed and matched to fit your specific needs. The pathways below speak to duration, frequency, and investment.

All coaching engagements are led personally by Dr. Arin N. Reeves and typically held in 60-minute sessions. Engagement length and pacing are intentionally designed and may be adjusted based on individual needs and timelines.

Individual 60-minute sessions are available at $500 per session. If cost is a concern or if you'd like to learn more before purchasing, please contact Elyse at elyse@nextions.com.

Coaching Pathways

Coaching engagements are tailored to where you are and what you need. Sessions are $500 each and are booked individually. Below is a general guide to how engagements are typically structured.

Immediate and Specific Recalibration

Focused, Short-Term Correction

Habit and Pattern Recalibration

Interrupting Recurring Patterns

6–8 sessions · 3–4 months

One Size Never Fits All

Business Development Strategies Tailored for Women (And Most Men)

Women continue to trail their male counterparts in making it to the very top leadership positions in professional service firms. Research demonstrates that the ability to develop business is a greater obstacle for women's success than any other reason. Through original research, Dr. Reeves illustrates how women often are more successful in certain aspects of business development (networking, establishing relationships, delivering excellence in client service), but firms primarily reward closing the sale and getting the credit for the sale. Dr. Reeves explains why most women fall prey to this flawed traditional business development approach and offers a series of alternative approaches that professional women, as well as the firms in which they work, should use instead.

Winning Against Liars Without Losing Your Mind

While most of us live by the same moral code, we aren't armed with the tools to deal with the liars who do not.

In this book, nationally-recognized workplace researcher Dr. Arin N. Reeves delves into the world of liars, the lies they tell, and the ways in which each of us can be smarter than the lies we encounter, especially in professional environments and public spaces.

Ethical Influence Under Pressure

Choosing Integrity to Create Change that Endures

For leaders, advocates, and anyone trying to move people and systems without abandoning truth, dignity, or justice, this book offers a powerful guide to creating change that endures.
