In my work as a Life and Career Success Coach, I bring a wonderful mosaic of life and professional experiences. Having lived in a number of cities and traveling all over the world, it has helped me to give my clients a broader vision of success. I flourished in an exciting and successful career in the fashion industries of New York, Paris and London. Eventually, I began to feel my values and dreams changing. Going through many life challenges, I realized I wanted to be of more service to others. 

Returning to college in the evenings while still working in the fashion industry, I was able to achieve a graduate degree with honors. I eventually "stepped off the cliff" and resigned my executive position to begin my career as a licensed clinical psychotherapist. This continues to be a rewarding and satisfying career. To add color to this wonderful mosaic, I enjoyed creative expression as a jazz vocalist. 

Some of the techniques I use in my coaching work are based on the training I received from the Mentor Coach Training Institute along with concepts from Positive Psychology Training. My passion as a coach is to encourage every client to actualize their innate abilities ("their treasures within") to overcome obstacles and create a life of success and fulfillment.

The " jewel " I have to offer you as a coach is my inspirational training for almost 25 years with The Sukyo Mahikari Centers for Spiritual Development (http://www.sukyomahikari.org). One of their goals is to help each individual "Improve Yourself" (and in this effort you are able to) - Improve the World". In their spiritual development courses they teach a practice of light energy and attitude change to uncover your true potential and your abilities to love and be successful. This training has inspired me to develop Positive Attitude Coaching.

In my speaking engagements, I offer practical skills to inspire organizations and individuals to overcome the blocks and self-limiting ideas that keep them from achieving their goals for success and harmony. I have expanded my work in Positive Attitude Coaching in a new book called STEPPING STONES TO SUCCESS which I have the privilege of coauthoring with a number of experts such as Deepak Chopra, Jack Canfield and Dr. Dennis Waitley. A button has been set up to give you an opportunity to purchase the book for a special price from the list price in the stores. I will also sign and date each copy.   

Practicing a positive change of attitude, with universal principles such as Gratitude and  Respect for Self and Others can become powerful tools for success, while combining them with practical life goals. Whatever your belief or philosophy, it will be a joy to journey with you to find " your treasures within ".
