In my practice, I "partner" with my clients to help them create a life worth living!  I help people grow into their lives, dreams and opportunities. I work with people to help them achieve results and sustain life-changing behavior in their lives and their career. All human beings are resourceful, creative and whole; therefore, I address the whole person – body, mind and spirit – with an emphasis on producing action and uncovering learning that can lead to more fulfillment, more balance and a more effective process for living and realizing their potential.

The word “Maitri” creates the foundation and intention for my work with others. Maitri is a Tibetan word that that translates into loving kindness toward self and others. Maitri is an attitude of friendliness and acceptance. My work is to remind and teach clients to pay kind attention to the essence of who they are and to work with that essence rather than against it.

I offer clients a sense of presence and attention that they might never have received before. Working with a dynamic toolbox of ideas, teachings, previous education and a great interest and passion for others, my work with clients offers great value, transformation and great insight into who they are and how they want to be in the world. 

People who have worked with me have changed their lives!  They have made decisions, completed many to-dos, have created a new relationship with themselves, have increased their self-awareness, have lost weight, have created fitness plans and schedules, have improved their relationships with spouses and significant others, have made themselves more of a priority, have created and achieved new goals and have appreciated the support of knowing that they are heard.

Although I have been coaching people all my life, I began a more formal training in my gifts and interests when I went to The Naropa University (www.naropa.edu) for a Masters degree in Psychology: Contemplative Psychotherapy. After working in the therapeutic world for several years, I enrolled in Coach University (www.coachu.com) and began fine-tuning my skills into an action-oriented, solution-focused coaching practice. I love coaching because I work with people who are ready to do their work and ready to take action towards transformation and insight in their lives. The coaching relationship creates a synergy that produces accelerated growth and learning for my clients. I love witnessing their transformation into the person they want to be.
