About Me


Having spent over twenty years as the Executive Vice President of The Holman Group (a managed behavioral healthcare firm), I experienced both the highs and lows of upper level management.  Additionally, I coached individuals from dramatically different corporate cultures. I understand how corporate cultures can either create a thinking and energetic workplace environment or a dismal workplace filled with poor employee morale.

I hold a Ph.D  in Organizational Psychology, a MS in Organizational Psychology and MA in Counseling Psychology. I am also a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist.


My Ideology


I firmly believe that the path to promotion and job satisfaction differs radically for every individual. There is no template or simple answer to how we can achieve our goals. After defining each client’s goals, together we create a road map and plan of action to achieve the desired outcomes.


Have you ever been overlooked for a deserved promotion?

Does it sometimes feel as though there is no possible way
to complete your workload to the satisfaction of your boss or customer?

Does it appear that others are less stressed or worried than you?

 Do you believe that you are often “one step behind” others?

Do you believe that you are often left out of crucial decision making?

Do happiness and personal fulfillment elude you in the workplace?

Are your suggestions for improvement or creativity often dismissed?


If any or all of the above questions apply to you, perhaps the time has come for Executive Coaching. I work with each client to customize a plan to provide for success. By evaluating the corporate culture and carefully examining your role, work history and values, together we create the most efficient plan to achieve your goals.
