About Us

Coaching changed my life for the better.  That’s why I started GreatDoor in 2006.

Meet Laura Luykx, CLC

Before I was introduced to coaching as a client I was feeling run over by the circumstances of my life and barely able to cope.  I was depressed, stressed and out of ideas about how to make things better.

Life coaching offered me a more empowering perspective as well as a forum and a structure for  identifying what I wanted in my life and then for making a plan to go after it.  I quickly fell in love with the non-judgmental facilitation I was receiving and that way my life was improving.  I secretly thought about what it would be like to assist other people with all the things I was learning, but there seemed no viable way for me to train, afford an office or find clients, so I kept it to myself.  After I finally admitted to my coach that I was secretly dreaming of being a life coach too, she helped me to stop focusing on the obstacles and to start focusing on the dream.  As I got clearer and clearer about what I truly wanted, the pieces began to fall into place.  I even inherited almost exactly the amount of money I needed for tuition.  My coach stood with me as I worked through the remaining details to move forward on what I truly wanted for myself.

Coaching has been such a powerful force for positive change and forward movement for me that I have never been without a coach since that time.  I use it not only to work through problems, but to set bigger and better intentions and then to stay on track with them.

Sometimes the best way to move forward on a goal or tackle a problem is to temporarily by-pass your conscious mind and tap more directly into your deep inner knowing.  I have studied Reiki, Acutonics, Emotional Stress Defusion and Shamanism and use these tools as a powerful adjunct to coaching.

I am certified by the International Coach Federation, which sets standards of accreditation for professional coaches.

I became a member of the faculty of The Possibility Institute in 2011.  The Possibility Institute has two major goals: 1) to reconnect you to your own ability to access infinite possibilities and amplify them into reality, and 2) to help you quickly and effortlessly achieve the results you desire. The Institute offers a variety of way for you to master your own power to create whatever circumstances you want in life and business, discover new and exciting possibilities, and utilize the science of possibility amplification to make them reality.

Since 2007 I have donated my services to One to One ~ Women Coaching Women, a national non-profit organization that offers six months of pro bono coaching to women who are emerging from challenging experiences and who cannot otherwise afford coaching.

I am an avid reader, tai chi student, and animal lover.  I lives in Winston-Salem, NC with my husband and son.
