Zachary Waters

My work doesn’t fit neatly into a single category, and honestly, I like it that way. I move between worlds: from counseling conversations to life coaching, from healing family dynamics to planning the logistics of a major event. I help people feel more connected; to themselves, to each other, and to the systems they’re navigating.

At the heart of it all, I’m someone who sees what’s missing and helps make it whole again. That might mean supporting a child through trauma and helping their caregivers respond with more compassion and less reactivity. It might mean reorganizing a messy process so it actually works the way you want it to. It might mean creating a flow that feels organized in a chaotic space, or asking the kind of questions that help someone find their way back to themselves.

I care about people and I care about how things function. I like systems that make sense and relationships that feel safe. I pay attention to the details most people miss, whether it’s the way a person’s nervous system flinches under pressure, the design of a form that’s confusing everyone, or the traffic pattern of a public event that needs to run smoothly. I believe that calm is powerful and I work from that place.

I’ve been called a strategist, a coach, a counselor, a problem-solver, a behind-the-scenes magician. I’ve helped kids heal, redesigned behavior systems, coached adults through crisis and transition, and built frameworks that hold both clarity and compassion. I’ve organized teams, structured events, crafted communication strategies, and built data tools that make complexity easier to hold.

What ties it all together is my ability to hold space for people, for process...for the whole messy truth of the situation and help move it forward. I lead through being grounded, bringing creativity to problem-solving, and never lose sight of the human beings at the center of it all.

If you’re trying to figure something out, whether it’s internal, interpersonal, or entirely logistical, I’d love to help. That’s what I do best.
