What people are saying…
“Dianne begins the coaching process where you are at. She is non-judgmental, and encourages you to recognize your strengths while also owning your weaknesses. It’s about getting out of the destructive cycle of self-blame and into a more constructive process of developing positive, growthful habits. She starts off with a “can-do“ attitude, is a great listener - reflecting back what was said, helps clarify attainable goals, notes progress, and holds you accountable without blaming. That’s amazing! I highly recommend Dianne!”
My life has been vastly improved by Dianne's knowledge, guidance and caring generosity. I have been to life coaches in the past, but this is different. What sets Dianne apart is that she’s not afraid to point out when you are back-paddling or using excuses, but does so in a most loving, helpful way while moving you forward. She is an incredibly intuitive, caring, professional and steers you towards the achievement of your goals in a methodical yet easy way. I can't recommend her enough.

Dianne is a fantastic coach and insightful mentor. Her rare combination of perception and insight is invaluable to anyone with the desire to improve. Dianne's advice and guidance were instrumental in my search for a better job and life, and I'm immensely glad to have had her as a sounding board in deciding what was next for me.

I began working with Dianne around two years ago and her help was exactly what I needed to get on track in my professional and personal life. She talks about “non-negotiables” which helped me to prioritize and give special attention to things I was doing with my lifestyle. Once I got that down I went on to achieve one dream after another. I continue to make and follow my dreams. Dianne is great at listening and guiding me through obstacles. She’s very smart and has good insight and she’ll tell it like it is if necessary but always in a kind way. My life would not be the same without her!

When I first moved from Paris to New York, I was struggling. I moved here with my husband because of his work. We met many good friends and I love New York but I felt lost without my own job and identity. My friend said to me to call Dianne and gave me her number. I’m so happy I did.
Working with Dianne, after only a few meetings, I discovered a lot of things about myself that I didn’t think about before. I started to look at my life in new and different ways. I started to write about my experiences as an expat. I feel lucky to be here and am communicating with people better. Even my husband! Also, I wanted to speak in English, but when I became stuck, I asked Dianne to explain to me in French and it really helped.

Nurturing, calm and honest. Dianne’s got the goods and exudes a natural warmth and generosity that has helped me create profound changes in my life. Because of my work with her, I gained the tools and confidence I needed to live the life I always envisioned. Thanks, Dianne!

I was overwhelmed with life and unfulfilled by my job. My passion projects were always put on the back burner and committing to anything seemed not worth the trouble. I contacted Dianne for help - reluctant and embarrassed of my being stuck. She immediately put me at ease and we began working together. I trusted the process, did my homework and soon found clarity in my path and the confidence to move forward. Since our last meeting, I have applied for and completed graduate school. I won two awards for my short film and made connections that led me to perform on some of the biggest stages in West End theater and on Broadway. Dianne's coaching has helped me to finally feel like I have a sense of grounding across this ever-changing landscape of New York City.
