MY STORY
Prior to discovering my true calling and becoming a Co-Active™ Life Coach, I spent more than 35 years in the field of education, both as a teacher and a supervisor. As a teacher, I realized my true passion was in mentoring and developing others. While continuing to work as an educator at a charter school in Newark, NJ, I transitioned into the field of personal life coaching. My training was conducted through CTI©, the largest and oldest in-person coach training program in the world and the first program to receive accreditation from the International Coach Federation. As an ICF Certified coach, I continue to work with individuals on a broad range of topics, from relationship issues and career change to professional development and time management. My greatest passion is assisting people in leading their lives in a way that makes them become happier, more effective and more successful.

HOW IS COACHING DIFFERENT FROM THERAPY?
Although coaching and psychotherapy can complement each other, each provides different benefits to your life. A coach focuses on where you are now and works with you to develop strategic actions to help you move forward and achieve your goals. Psychotherapy tends to be based in theoretical applications historically rooted in psychiatry, psychoanalysis and a medical model approach. If you're interested in taking action and creating solutions, coaching is for you.
HELPING YOU MOVE FORWARD
My practice specializes in co-actively helping people to be their "best selves" in their lives, relationships and career. I coach my clients in a way that utilizes both their heads and their hearts. The Co-Active Model balances self-awareness, a keen agility with relationships, and courageous action. This creates an environment where individuals can be deeply fulfilled, connected to others and successful in what matters most.
The “Co” in Co-Active suggests relationship, connection, intimacy and collaboration. Thus, the “Co” in us is curious, listens deeply, hears nuance, holds space for others, intuits and nurtures.
The “Active” in Co-Active stands for power, direction, action and manifestation. So, the “Active” in us is courageous, has clarity and conviction, takes charge and achieves goals. We're in this together!
