Welcome to My Coaching Practice!
It is a privilege to help clients move forward in their lives and confront fears, understandable resistances, and blocks related to achieving growth in personal, relational, and creative areas. I am heartened by the capacity we all have for growth and mastery around certain obstacles. It is equally rewarding to help creatives including writers, artists, performers, and entrepreneurs develop increased confidence, leadership, and productivity, as well as heighten their craft and skills.
I enjoyed a long career as a Manhattan Relational psychoanalyst and educator on numerous subjects, as well as published journal articles and presented my theoretical and clinical work at various training forums within Manhattan and internationally. I am pleased to bring to my Coaching Practice, a deep understanding of how to help people, as well as my commitment to creative processes inclusive of my long-standing engagement with writing poetry.
I specialize in insight building and change-oriented Coaching sessions in addition to performance and leadership development. My background working with traumatized individuals adds to my capacity to bring comprehensive and compassionate understanding around recovery tools as well as building strength and resiliency. I am versed in thinking creatively while exploring new ways of addressing old patterns in order to forge ahead and reach desired outcomes.
Thank you for considering my services!
