I have provided personal coaching services for men and women from their early 20's to their late 80's - and have worked with people in a wide range of fields - including corporate managers, dancers. doctors, novelists, massage therapists, artists, musicians, linguists, accountants, realtors, nurses, graphic designers, landscaping contractors, entrepreneurs, social workers, manicurists, grant writers, plumbers, multimedia developers, acupuncturists, photographers, psychics, aestheticians, strategic planners, chiropractors, publicists, hair dressers, web designers, florists, sales professionals, teachers, nutritionists, lawyers, and others.

Every time I work with a person I learn more about their profession or field of interest. But, the approach I take to personal coaching with people in all fields is the same - it is tailored to the person more than to the profession. It is about helping you discover from within yourself what the right path, goals, and strategies are for you.

That's great that I'm not going to "tell you what to do," you may be thinking - but what if you want some advice? Shouldn't you be working with a person who has some experience that allows them to relate to what you're talking about, and to steer you in the right direction?

Yes and yes. Although coaching is always about you and what you want and think and decide, I am prepared to give thoughts and suggestions based on my experience if and when you ask for them.

"But how can you have very much experience," you might say, "you look so YOUNG." I get this frequently. Yes, I do look young. Actually, I've packed a lot into my 43 years. If you'd like to know the specifics of my background and experience, read About Melanie for more information.

So, if we're coaching together and you ask my opinion about a decision you want to make, or an action you want to take, I'll give you my input if it seems appropriate.
