As a life coach, psychologist and psychotherapist, I have been helping people reach their most important goals for 38 years. I have loved all the things I've been privileged to do in my work. Part of what I love about being a life coach is that it allows me to use the experience and skills I've developed over decades of being a psychologist and psychotherapist, to help empower an even broader range of people to reach for an even broader range of goals. It is such a joy to be part of the growth process that characterizes life coaching.
Coaching with me is always tailored to meet your unique needs. My style is highly collaborative, utilizing an array of established change and life coaching techniques, in combination with Positive Psychology principles. I am committed to ensuring that my coaching clients experience a sense of safety and acceptance, in order to more fully participate in the process of self-exploration. After 38 years of helping people, I believe I have cultivated and nourished a deep intuition that benefits the clients I work with now.
I received my Ph.D. from the University of Iowa in 1981, after completing my internship at the University of Rochester Medical Center (Strong Memorial Hospital). I then worked as an inpatient psychologist for 4 years, after which I accepted a position as Assistant Director of the Counseling Center of the Rochester Institute of Technology. I opened a full-time private practice in 1987. I received life coach training from the Mentor Coach program, which specializes in training experienced psychotherapists to use Positive Psychology principles in the life coaching process.
