Wondering what it’s like to work with me? Here’s what people say:

“Helped me transform my relationship with myself”

The most salient quality I've taken away from my years-long relationship Ellie has been gentleness. I come from a rather rigid background; I'm used to pushing and grinding my way toward success -- toward "perfection." Working with Ellie over the past decade (!), I've not only practiced being gentle and kind toward myself and others, but have also been shocked to find that all of my goals have come more easily this way. Ellie has, truly, helped me transform my relationship with myself from an adversarial one to an allyship. Thanks to her support, in the time we've worked together, so much has changed: I've gone from being a journalist to pursuing my lifelong dream of writing fiction (my debut novel came out last year), started teaching despite my anxiety about public speaking, entered a relationship after many years of being single, and moved with my partner from New York -- where I've lived all my life, and have been afraid to leave -- to Texas, where we're building a life together. I am beyond grateful for all the gentle, loving support and guidance Ellie has gifted me with over so much of my adulthood, which has helped me take these leaps!

“The best thing anyone can do for themselves”

Ellie is an extremely gifted person with many talents and characteristics that make her stand out in what she does with love and enthusiasm. When I first started working with Ellie, I thought that I needed a little bit of help in matters of work and financial arrangements, however as we continued the process between us we discovered that everything in life is connected to each other and she helped me a lot to face some of my fears in making important decisions, such as that I want to have children and do IVF without fear of failure.  I feel very lucky to have met her and to have worked together for this period. It's the best thing anyone can do for themselves.

“A long-lasting impact on my life”

Coaching was an elusive concept for me until I started working with Ellie almost two years ago. At that time, I was coming out of COVID isolation and feeling like I wasn’t growing or achieving my personal goals. Ellie with her coaching exercises helped me identify not only my weaknesses and limiting beliefs but also my strengths, needs, and likes. Gradually, I became more self-aware and socially aware, which helped me build a more fulfilling life. The lessons and insights I gained during my coaching sessions have stayed with me to this day and will have a long-lasting impact on my life. I’m grateful for the growth I’ve achieved both personally and professionally.

“She never failed to deliver”

For the past few years I have been fortunate enough to have Ellie in my life as a guide, mentor, teacher and support. Ellie is vulnerable yet strong. Humble yet steadfast and graceful in her own quest for self-improvement. She has a unique gift to understand and be supportive in the most non-judgmental way. In the past few years, I faced some of the darkest times in my life, dealing with painful family trauma. In those desperate moments, I turned to Ellie for light and clarity. Every time I called upon her, she never failed to deliver compassion, wisdom and hope.

Practical, action oriented and results driven

Practical, action oriented and results driven are a few of the phrases I would use to describe my experience with Ellie’s life coaching.  As a 50 year old attorney I wanted to tweak my business and create clear objectives which I was excited about.  Ellie provided me with a structured process for examining my past experiences and identifying challenging goals which inspired me and were aligned with my values.  I would recommend Ellie to people seeking to elevate their careers and are willing to do the work to get more out of life.

“She asked all the right questions”

Ellie has helped me in a unique way. She asked all the right questions in order to make me see on my own things I have ignored or years. The sessions feel like opening a window to my soul. She helped me handle fears, become more confident, and able to perform in a better way in triggering situations that came along the way. I am thankful because she managed to do this while caring deeply and supporting me emotionally in such a steady and calming way. I always felt safe no matter what issue arose.
