As successful people, most of us realize that life has been pretty good so far. But sometimes circumstances can throw us a curve ball and it can be difficult to see our way through the muck and the mire. While experiencing these personal or professional challenges, it can be helpful to work with a trained professional. It is my passion to provide individualized assistance to my counseling and coaching clients using an interactive, non-judgmental, structured, and compassionate approach.
After a rewarding career working in corporate America as a Real Estate Asset Manager, I returned to my humanistic roots by getting a Masters in Counseling and becoming a Licensed Marriage, Family Therapist. It is my privilege to work with individuals and couples who are going through a difficult time in their life by helping them alleviate pain, manage emotions, and improve relationships.
Deciding to leverage my business and life experience, I pursued an additional certification as a Business and Life Coach. Through Business Coaching, individuals, organizations and companies work to define goals, improve communication and successfully execute a detailed plan. Through Life Coaching, individuals who are at various crossroads in their life get support to explore possibilities and achieve attainable goals to pave a path to a bright future.
While working with several counseling clients as they went through a divorce, I saw how going to court destroyed families and finances. Through extensive training in the Collaborative Divorce process (as a Divorce Coach and Child Specialist), my coaching expertise helps people get through this stressful time maintaining dignity, self-worth and respect. This process also makes sure that children’s best interests are taken into account through the development of a Parenting Plan.
