A Warm Welcome...

 
If you're seeking relief from any life stress and need a tough but caring Coach to achieve even your most challenging goals, then please read on. 
 
Why bother to pursue a better life? As I once read, "to experience whatever wonder might be just around the corner." There are many; we just need to know how to look for them.
  
After 12 years in corporate business and 16 years as a mental health professional (Master Social Worker), I now draw on my career and personal experiences as a Life Coach and Relationship Coach. I continue to witness miraculous changes in individuals and couples, as we work to balance the whole person: intellect, emotions, physical body, and "spirit" (whatever meaning that holds for you).
 
Some of the most difficult situations can--and do--turn around quickly. Anything is possible! It's this strong belief that influences all I do: how I respectfully encourage others, the huge amount of faith I have in the process, and what keeps me strong personally. No matter how frustrating things might feel now, you can come to see your challenges through new eyes, release your stress or pain, and realize your desires. There is a way.  
 
We ALL meet obstacles, but our strength is in HOW we meet them and how we THINK about them. It's possible to come to see even the greatest difficulties as opportunities, release any long-held beliefs and negative emotions that might be holding you back, and enjoy greater peace of mind. 
 
Combining up-beat strategies with an in-depth knowledge of psychology, I help individuals and couples transform their lives. My clients all share very human challenges: frustration, lack of direction or motivation, anxiety, loss/grief, physical pain, relationship conflicts, anger, financial issues, and even trauma; yet change is always possible.

Using diverse tools, I help affect change quickly. Just talking isn't always enough; too often we repeat the same stories expecting a different result. (The result is usually more of the same!) I use numerous exercises to clarify goals and obstacles, and stress-release techniques, guided meditations and powerful visualizations to help unblock limitations rapidly without dwelling long on what isn't working. The focus shifts to what is working.
 
Certified in advanced techniques to release mental, emotional and physical distress like Tapas Acupressure Technique ("TAT") and Emotional Freedom Technique ("EFT"). Both techniques use self-applied acupressure to the body combined with positive affirmations and coaching, to deliver often immediate (and sometimes permanent) relief from any distress...from simple frustrations to traumatic memories. Offering greater relaxation and "emotional freedom", these easy tools allow people to attain goals a lot faster. 
 
Note: Although highly effective, EFT, TAT and other techniques are in no way intended to replace treatment by a medical doctor or mental health practitioner; these tools are simply complements to treatment.  

 

Coaching with me is a very active and uplifting experienceEverything I do is focused on creating the life my client really wants, whether I'm working with you by the hour or I've designed a 90-Day Custom Coaching Program. Every goal includes realistic steps toward your personal success (however you define it).

Life Coaching & Life "Support"

I'm here to guide you through your challenges, help inspire your dreams, and celebrate your successes. We'll begin by clarifying the precise insights, motivations, and tools that fit for you. Then you'll practice with me, learn to excell on your own, and find a FREEDOM few people ever enjoy.

 

No matter who you are and what feels difficult for you, I care deeply about your progress. Yet life's challenges don't have to be unwelcome ones. Together, we'll take the first step by understanding exactly how you perceive yourself and the world around you. Then we'll work to shift any limiting beliefs and emotions that might be keeping you from what you really want. "Negative" experiences turn into "opportunities", and your past becomes a vital teacher. 

 

My Personal "Opportunity" & Resulting Gifts

Learning to live confidently and happily inside our own skin, especially in darker moments, can feel hard and at times impossible. Yet having personal experience with loss and serious illness, I know that living joyfully despite such challenges is very possible.
 
After a bumpy childhood, I thought that I'd enjoy some peace for a while--ha! Loss knocked on my door repeatedly, eventually compromising my immune system and resulting in years of frustrating health symptoms.  
 
Several years ago I was diagnosed with cancer. This news began a journey right on track with what I had been consciously working on: releasing old grief and resentment for good. This was my big opportunity! A friend feared I was in denial, but I was actually excited: I had been given a gift.
 
Through the illness, I learned even more about myself than I thought possible. I also gained excellent information on some of the most effective health strategies now available (which I used to bounce back from treatment), and how to better respect and nurture the people most precious in my life--including myself. 
 
I still feel fortunate to have taken that journey, and call on the same strength I needed then to get me through lesser life stresses.

Inspiration from Our Military & Veterans
This spring and summer, I was invited to work with the National Veterans Wellness & Healing Center, a 501(c) 3 non-profit retreat program free to Military/Veterans and their guests (see www.veteranswellnessandhealing.org). 
 
Inviteded for my experience with releasing distress and trauma, I went to the retreats New Mexico not knowing much more than I'd be helping couples in distress. Over 220 hours later, it's some of my most rewarding work ever. To bear witness to the sheer determination of these guests (many couples and family members who came with healthy skepticism and were close to giving up) was an honor--further proof that the human spirit's ability to triumph is there for ALL of us.
 
Now, I only want to provide more of this exciting work to all individuals, no matter how small or large their challenges.
