"I decided to try Coaching when I was at a point in my life where I wanted to find more focus and direction. I wasn't sure what to expect at first, but I quickly became very comfortable in my coaching relationship with Amanda. Together, Amanda and I have been looking at areas in my life where I'd like to grow, change or move forward. Like most people, I have a fairly narrow focus when it relates to how I look at things and how I deal with them. Amanda has me approach things from other angles, try new approaches or just see them differently. It has been a huge tool in adding more "positive" into my life. I have a great life and a great family, and I'm using Coaching to build upon that. Less anxiety, less stress, less distress - more positive energy, positive thoughts and positive feelings. Plus, Amanda is someone who listens, without judgement. The relationship is both very friendly and very professional. It's a great way to start channeling more positive energy into my everyday life."--Natalie


"I sought coaching with Amanda because I felt "stuck" in both my personal and professional life and was tired of conventional therapy. I found coaching with Amanda a dynamic new way to challenge myself and begin to get more of what I wanted in life. Amanda's patience, understanding and endless ideas for exercises and homework helped to move me along to a place where I'm experiencing abundance and new choices. I felt Amanda truly cared for me and think that the work we did together was transformational." --Diana, Baltimore, MD


"I just wanted to let you know how meaningful my coaching experience with you has been. When we started last summer, I was in the middle of a great deal of transition - job location, home, career, money, and relationship
with friends and family. I wasn't going through anything traumatic, but I was definitely feeling overwhelmed and a bit disorganized. Our sessions helped me to make goals and develop a vision for myself. Most importantly, it allowed me the chance to really reflect on what I want, what I value, and who I am - - always without any sort of judgement. As I
told you, I often felt selfish, because it was a block of time devoted to me. You are such an insightful, thoughtful person, and you were able to listen, ask important questions, and give really excellent suggestions (without pushing in any way). I also really appreciated the people with whom you were able to put me in contact and the resources you found for me. It often seemed like you thought about our sessions just as much as I did during the week, because you frequently sent e-mails with information that I might find helpful. Thank you so much for giving me more insight,
confidence, and tools to handle the inevitable life questions and crises I will face. YOU ARE A WONDERFUL COACH!!!! Thank you!!!!!"--Victoria, Ashburn, VA
