About Me
I believe change will only happen if there's a strong, trusting relationship between client and coach, and I work hard to build meaningful connections. I get a complete picture of my client's story before developing strategies or making rash recommendations; at the same time, I am able to reach a deep understanding of my clients quickly, and help them find solutions that last. I find most people have unsettling social experiences from their past that have left marks on their conscience and which hold them back in their current lives. We will take a look at how these experiences might be causing social anxiety or anticipatory anxiety -- fears of feeling ashamed or embarrassed, procrastination and perfectionism, avoidance of things we want to do, and feeling invisible and not being heard. I work with my clients on reframing these experiences in a more empowering way and then move on to empowering their present lives. I help my clients face their personal social scars, looking at where they came from and what impact they are having on their current goals and aspirations. I use powerful questions and discussions, guided visualization, writing exercises, brainstorming exercises, and reframing limiting beliefs to help overcome these fears and anxiety, allowing my clients to be more fully present in their lives.
Give me a call if You:
• Can’t get over negative messages you hear or have heard about yourself
• Are feeling anxiety about upcoming social situations – job interviews, difficult conversations, meeting people for the first time, dating, etc.
• Carrying around feelings of hurt, betrayal or shame which are getting in the way of moving forward
• Feeling like you don’t fit in at work, home, or school
• Want to explore why you are avoiding certain situations or procrastinating
* Feeling blocked finishing a project or a degree
Let go of your fears and anxiety and reach your goals with confidence!

I always feel good after talking with Nadine. It feels good to have a clear plan and someone not only rooting for me, but counting on me to do it. Even when I don't accomplish my weekly goals, it makes me pause and think about why and that's been invaluable in restructuring my time and giving myself a break. Nadine has also helped me to slow down and appreciate joyful moments in my life!

I just finished 8 weekly sessions with Nadine and they were invaluable. Nadine helped me navigate both the crowded contents of my head and my life’s latest challenges so I could successfully arrive at a truly focused vision for my immediate future. Together, we uncovered the strengths and abilities I had lying dormant within myself (as opposed to telling me what she thought I needed to do) and activated my truest passions and turned them into a clear direction for me to take my career in—while also putting them in context with my new role as a parent. Lots of gratitude for Nadine!

I have really enjoyed my experience with Life Coaching and with working with Nadine. She immediately made me comfortable with the process and helped me to create a road map of what we were going to work on. The journey has been incredible and so rewarding. Nadine is very compassionate, extremely thoughtful and very motivating. She has gently pushed me in the direction I have been wanting to go but haven't been able to get to on my own.

I had some coaching sessions with Nadine and she was wonderful. Nadine helped me put together a lot of pieces in my life and see them as interconnected. Then as we worked together I became less overwhelmed and felt like I could handle what was going on. Ultimately, I feel better about myself and know I can tackle everything that is going on.

What I most appreciated about life coaching with Nadine was the perspective shift I received, the feeling of possibility beyond my stuckness, and the simple solutions and actions for moving forward in my career and family life. Nadine was present with me in a way that felt intimate and specific to my situation; I felt cared for and supported and listened to in a way that helped empower me to make changes.

I have found that working with Nadine feels like sharing coffee with a wise friend – comfortable, open, and honest. Nadine is someone in whom you can easily confide even the most perplexing or daunting of situations, and she will hold you accountable for doing the challenging work of exploring aspects of your personality that contribute to your successes and failures. Nadine helped me to reshape some of my major, negative trains of thought that were limiting my potential for success and happiness. She has given me the tools I need to move forward in a more confident, self-assured manner in every aspect of my life. I am now gainfully and happily employed in a new job that is meaningful to me, and I am living in a new city that brings me endless joy. Kudos to Nadine and her life-coaching talents! She is exceptionally gifted, and the recent outcomes in my life are proof positive of her coaching skills.
