Career and Creativity Coaching

As a certified professional coach and an artist, I have the skills and perspective to help my clients overcome creative blocks, break through limiting beliefs, and create the work and life that they love. I am credentialed by the International Coaching Federation (ICF), which holds its coaches to stringent education and experience requirements. I completed my professional coaching training with the Institute of Professional Excellence in Coaching (iPEC). I also received a Master of Social Work** degree from Fordham University, with behavioral science coursework focused on mental health and human development. My graduate training included a supervised internship where I provided counseling to individuals, families and groups.   I am also a certified practitioner of the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), and I have studied Jungian psychology at The Centre for Applied Jungian Studies. 

**Please note that I do not practice social work or psychotherapy as an independent practitioner. I offer coaching, which is an unregulated profession that is allied to but is distinct from other human service fields in that it does not diagnose or treat mental disorders or medical issues. 

Having spent over two decades in the corporate world, and being a working mom, I understand how challenging it is to live a balanced and inspired life in today's world. My own journey to fulfilling work was not an easy one, and it ultimately led me to find meaning in helping others do the same. Managing stress and overwhelm and achieving balance are key components of my work with my clients, along with finding a broader genuine alignment of their life, work and values.

I tailor my coaching approach to your needs and preferences, taking into consideration your strengths, challenges and goals. I use a variety of tools and techniques, including mindfulness, creative exercises, writing prompts, goal-setting and accountability, and personalized assessments of your values and natural tendencies. I am also a certified practitioner of the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), and I use this personality typology tool in my work with clients who are open to it.
