Testimonials

"I have worked with another coach, however, it was Maria’s skills and supportive coaching that helped me to finally identify and take positive steps to freeing myself from a situation that was causing me a lot of anxiety! She is amazing and her clients are blessed to be able to work with her! I would recommend her highly and plan to work with her again whenever I need a coach!" ~ T.M.

"Maria has helped transform my life. With her psychotherapy background and dynamic questioning skills, she was able to cast light on areas in my life I have never challenged. I am extremely grateful for our working relationship and guidance." ~ V.C.

"Maria's strengths as a coach are her compassion and creativity. I never feel judged and I always feel like she has an interesting idea for me to try. I think that her open mindedness is apparent in every aspect of our sessions. She is very peaceful, and I like the fact that she brings some spirituality into our work." ~ M.T.

"I was pretty stuck in thinking about how I couldn't possible get past something. Brilliantly, Maria helped me to see and speak out loud what was blocking me and then invented this positively golden micro-process that allowed me to get past the block each and every time I experienced it (which was almost every day). She's got a way of helping you be kind to yourself (or hold yourself accountable - whatever you need) that I haven't experienced in other coaching." ~ M.R.

"As a business coach I meet many people that are Life Coaches. I could always see that Maria was one of the best. When I became stuck myself I had no hesitation asking Maria for some help. I had lost my compass and lost my motivation. After working with Maria I gained clarity on what direction I needed to pursue and, with her help, was able to lock in on what mattered most to me. Because of her help, I got unstuck and have connected to my passion. With my increased motivation, relationships have improved and so has my business. I can heartily recommend Maria. She is a gem." ~ K.S.

"I really enjoy Maria's energy. She is light but grounded. She is curious and sharp and intelligent. We connected verbally----which is important to me because it is something I value. I also think Maria has great intuition. She gave me a phrase to remember about a particular situation and it was perfect. It was like a mantra and helped me to re-adjust during a challenging time. She understands women and relationships and the pull of expectations that come from that. She had a great sense of humor and responds with care. Overall, I really liked the feel of a dialogue between us. And I like that I felt in control of what I was dealing with during the sessions. And I liked the focus on proactive measures---steering away from what doesn’t work but acceptance of where I am in my life now." ~ M.O.

"Our overall relationship consists only of highlights, because I left every session with my questions answered, the issues I had brought to the session resolved, with more knowledge about coaching, and with more awareness of my strengths." ~ Z.K.

"When you think of a life coach you may picture someone screaming from a stage telling you to just go for it. The problem with this is that it doesn't address the root cause of the problem that may be holding someone back. Maria helps people help themselves through a very unique process. She helps her clients get to the root cause of an emotional or psychological struggle that is keeping them from really tapping into their true potential. When a client discovers this "cause" its like opening a floodgate. Maria has helped me work through some road blocks in my business which were really just struggles within myself. I highly recommend Maria to anyone who is experiencing a roadblock in life." ~ A.G.
