It is easy to understand why she is highly regarded by her clients.”                                                   Wendy Kerschner - Comfort Keepers, Reading, PA

“Deana’s coaching has made numerous differences in personal ways, too. For instance, I had always reacted to disagreement as if it were conflict. This, of course, blocked me from fully appreciating conversations, assistance, etc., and often from exchanging opinions and delving for deeper understanding. With a few simple questions and gently stated powerful observations, Deana was able to help me relearn how to hear and respond with openness and intelligence rather then emotion and insecurity. Discomfort is replaced now with curiosity, fear with appreciation.” continue reading

Because she is so well trained and experienced, she was able to help me easily identify and transcend the occasional roadblocks that would surface during my learning experience. Due to her coaching, I was able to meet my goals with the unusual benefit of compassionate skilled support. This made my process easier and more productive that I ever dreamed it could be. I highly recommend her as a coach for anyone who is looking to make lasting positive change in their life.”

“Deana helped me find my voice. That simple statement speaks volumes! We all know, inside, who we are, but sometimes it’s part of life that we may take awhile to LIVE it fully. Deana helped me on my journey of living my life authentically – she supported ME, not my goals at a specific time, and that led to me aiming for what I truly wanted. I needed that kind of support, and I’m so grateful for Deana being in my life. Her profound listening, deep caring and insights and big picture perspective on living were just what I needed. I would be thrilled for anyone being able to work with her!”
Kara Gridley, Artist, California, www.blacklionart.com

“I started working with Deana as a mentee through the Coaching Institute. During that time together, I felt so supported and encouraged by her that I made the choice to hire her as my coach. During our time working together, she has supported me in transforming my unhealthy beliefs about myself, my marriage and my finances. She also supported me in starting my coaching practice. As a result of her working with me, I have a more intimate relationship with myself and my husband, a great start for my coaching career-and a bunch of other bonuses. Deana has been patient but firm when necessary and supportive but knew when to let me work things out for myself. She has a great balance and is also very resourceful. Deana is a great listener and a brilliant coach!!”
LaTalya Palmer – Author and Entrepreneur, Lewis,  NJ
