About Kelly
About Kelly:
My career started in the helping field, as a nurse. I quickly moved into the business side of healthcare, finding myself intrigued by leadership and in search of the formula for an effective, successful leader. Through this experience I found that relationship development was a key leadership skill that was essential to career advancement. Over the past 20 plus years, I have imparted this knowledge to mentee’s, family and friends. This was the impetus of my passion for coaching people around relationships and the beginning of my relationship coaching career.
My relationship interests then moved into the personal realm as I married and divorced young. This life change provided the opportunity to study relationships that included: divorce, single parenthood, dating, self as well as others. Through this experience I spent years studying relationships from some of the leading experts in relationship development, John Gottman, PH.D., Harville Hendrix, PH.D., and others. This experience further fueled my interest in the development of effective relationship and life coaching theories. These theories combined with my leadership skills, have enabled me to identify opportunities for improvement in the development of personal and professional relationships, and build relationship coaching techniques. Also this exploration experience led me to a great amount of self-growth, which has proven to be extremely beneficial in changing my life; developing a passion for helping others find themselves and successful relationships, personally and professionally; and the move to becoming a relationship coach and building a successful coaching practice.
This passion has also lead to continuing my education around relationships. I am a certified professional coach and working toward being a certified Master Relationship Coach, as well as a Master’s Degree in Counseling.
The process that I embrace in coaching you to the successful completion of your goals is very individualized, for I don’t believe that “one size fits all” when it comes to our individual growth and the development of self-awareness as a path to attracting, finding and growing the most important relationship of our lives. Therefore my partnership with you is truly personalized to assisting you in accomplishing the life goals that you desire.
I look forward to being your catalyst to healthy & effective relationships (self, personal and professional).
