Sean Patrick Hatt, PhD

I came to Dr Hatt for business coaching, looking for help figuring out how to better navigate a complex corporate organization and find more fulfillment in the work I’m doing, and in the life I’m living. After 6 months of coaching, I feel I found what I was looking for! I had tried starting a meditation practice about 10 years ago and enjoyed it, but found it difficult to keep up. Having Dr Hatt as a guide and inspiration through that practice was extremely helpful. I have meditated for 20 minutes almost (not quite ;-) every day for the last 6 months. I have come to not only do the practice, but understand and feel why it is so important, and feel that I’ve gained an incredibly important tool for handling work and other parts of my life moving forward. Mixing this with other techniques he teaches, and just having the benefit of a wise, compassionate, supportive coach in your corner really opens up new opportunities for growth that make finding the next chapter all the more exciting.

I have had the privilege to work with Sean on several occasions. We were first introduced in a graduate seminar in which he was co-​teaching. Sean’s ability to engage the class in demanding and challenging material, in conjunction with his deep understanding and compassion towards the process of learning made this class very fulfilling and enjoyable on both an academic and personal level. Sean has also been a mentor to me through various writing and clinical projects, supporting my growth as a clinician and challenging me to dig deeper to find my own style. Most recently, Sean has been as supportive colleague as I prepare to move into my dissertation research and has continued to offer support and guidance in this process. Sean is passionate, smart, and holds a wonderful sense of humor that is often needed in this field.
