So you’re thinking of hiring a coach! The first thing to know is that I  meet the “gold standard” set by the International Coaching Federation. Earning my PCC credential involved logging hundreds of hours of coaching, training and test-taking.

I am currently in private practice while coaching and teaching at New York University.

At NYU:

• Life & Work Coach at NYU’s journalism graduate school. I’m embedded in American Journalism Online (AJO). This is a fully-remote program for professional and student journalists from around the globe. I coach them in navigating work/life balance, intercultural communication and transforming personal trauma in ways that empower their storytelling voices.
• Adjunct professor for teaching journalism in NYU’s undergraduate program. I’m currently teaching a personal essay writing course:  “Culture, Identity & Me.”
• Recipient of NYU’s Outstanding Teaching Award.

My private practice:

• Clients range from individuals who are artists, writers, executives and, professionals from many different fields. Organizations and corporations also bring me in to create coaching workshops and programs for their teams.
• We will work with the whole you – body and soul, brains, mind and emotions.
• My specialty is transforming trauma, especially related to childhood. These experiences show up in our adult lives as hidden triggers that sabotage how we love, work and play. But coaching changes the story that you tell yourself – and the world.
• I take a holistic approach in coaching issues that include diversity, identity, relationships, writing, communication skills, writing, alcoholism and addiction, domestic violence and the immigrant experience.
