Why would someone make a serious investment in working with a human coach, when advice and information are everywhere now?

Because most people do not need more information.

They need a place where their life can be looked at carefully… honestly… over time.

They need someone paying attention not just to the problem of the week, but to the deeper patterns underneath it.

For more than twenty years, I’ve worked with people through the parts of life that ask the most of us… decisions, relationships, transitions, questions of direction, meaning, and change.

My work brings together mindfulness and coaching.

Mindfulness helps us see clearly. Coaching helps us respond deliberately.

Together, they create something many people are missing…A thoughtful, ongoing conversation about how to live well, and on purpose.

If something in your life needs a clearer look, you’re welcome to reach out.

Mindfulness based coaching:

→ Human →Thoughtful → Effective

Your first conversation is complimentary. A chance to see whether working together feels like a good fit.

Working with David has been one of the most profound experiences of my life.

After having my first child I suffered from devastating postpartum. After two years without sleep, job transitions, family health issues, a serious deficit in self-care and a changing identity, my marriage started to crack.

David helped me re-orient to my new life and remember the significance of my spiritual journey and he walked me through the fog to discover and embrace my true values.

Talking with David is like talking to the most wise, humble and interesting friend you have. I had never before experienced the level of connection I felt with him on deep and difficult topics and often left those conversations either weeping with gratitude or rushing from a new insight. He inspires compassion, love and growth. My family will be forever grateful. He created a space for us to grow into our best selves.

Once in a while in life, you meet someone who changes your life in a way that you’ll always remember. David is one of those people for me and continues to be a positive force of knowledge, motivation and deep insights. He’s a kind wise soul that defies typical labels. He’s more than a life coach or a mentor.

David is someone you can explore with, knowing that he’ll be there for you and deeply devoted to bringing you where you need to go. Sometimes without you even knowing he’s doing so. He has a subtle yet powerful way of doing what he does. And it’s always done with love, care and the highest of intentions. David is a gift to anyone he works with.

A guide and support along your journey, he will light a fire under your bottom and give you fresh insight into options, exploring new kinds of solutions. Let someone help you get to where you want to go.

I was searching for someone to help me through the anxiety of making a career change. I had a lot of resistance to talking to a coach. I thought I needed to figure it all out on my own. That kept me stuck for a long time.

David helped me understand myself and what I was really striving for. We’ve been working together for over 2 years now. I recommend him if you need support to make a change for yourself.

David is a Jedi.

Someone who knows how to ask a better quality question and cut into the center of an issue.

No BS. There are so many benefits I have experienced from our conversations.
