The Softer Side of Success

As a coach, I work in partnership with my clients to pin-point and solve problems. Together, we devise and implement simple, time-tested strategies that will lead to a fuller, freer, more balanced and joyful life.

Life coaching is not therapy. My clients are mentally healthy, accomplished, highly functioning people who simply want more out of life — whether that be in their personal relationships, their careers, their health or some combination thereof.

Sessions are conducted in person or by phone, enabling me to work with anyone, anywhere, at my clients' convenience.
