About Teri

I remember that sobering day when I thought, “Is this all there is to my life?”

I never would have believed than that this was the day my journey to an extraordinary life would begin.

I had over 15 years experience as a podiatrist, survived and thrived after a devastating divorce, and was successful in the medical sales industry, yet I still didn’t have the inner contentment I desired. I attended countless transformational seminars, was financially free and had a great new man in my life, but I was still living with a pain and fear over something I couldn’t quite define or describe.

To many, I would be considered a great success, but I saw my life as a big fraud. Overworked and overstressed I had unfulfilled goals and was constantly worried about not achieving them. I had an overwhelming sense of disappointment about where my life was heading.  I knew there had to be more to life but had no idea how to find it.

Having been through enough pain and knowing I was born to be happy and fulfilled, I found the courage to hire a coach. My experience of coaching taught me how to remove the roadblocks that kept me from a life I love!

Determined to give back this sacred work, I became a Transformational Life Coach.

Now, I am an internationally recognized expert in the field of Shadow Coaching and Divorce Coaching and am a sought-after trainer, coach and guide. I received my training and certification as a Transformational Life Coach from the Ford Institute in San Diego California and am a member of the International Coaching Federation.

"​Working on myself for the last three years was a major priority for me, and it was easy to focus on the physical me with the exercising​; however, focusing on me mentally and emotionally was a lot harder to prioritize, or even just figuring out what that meant. I was struggling hard emotionally and mentally and I knew that, but I just didn’t know what could work for me. I had given therapy a few tries, and found out quickly that it was not for me and felt more angry at the process than anything. They just didn’t ​'get me.​' I have struggled with a lot of trauma in my past that I never dealt with, and barely speak about to this day, and recognized that my patterns as an adult from these life experiences were causing barriers. My friend told me about her experience with a Life Coach and how it changed her life, and sent me Teri’s information. I was skeptical - because of my previous bad experiences with just trying to talk about my life and my deeply rooted hate from ​'toxic positivity​', but what I received from going through this process with Teri was more than I could have ever imagined. My goal ​was to be happy and to feel at peace, which seemed like an impossible end goal​ for me. The process, tearing the house down and rebuilding it, understanding your past and how those belief systems have shaped you as an adult and literally in everything you do. In recognizing yourself in others, in recognizing that how you think about yourself is how others will see you and ultimately treat you, were all major ​'chapters​' that I came to understand​.​ ​I​ realized why things kept ending up the same way they always had for me.  This process isn’t easy, and uncovering a lot of stuff and dealing with it is probably the most exhausting thing you can do emotionally and mentally - but worth it and needed. Teri made me feel seen, validated and understood, which is something I can honestly say I have never felt before. This process worked for me, and helped me really understand who I am as a person, who I want to be and who I can be​. It also​ taught me​ how to deal with things when life throws you those curve balls. You can’t ask for better with Teri and what she taught me will stick with me for my entire life. This process and Teri were life changing for me and it was the best investment in myself that I have ever made."

I have a unique coaching style that has developed over the years as a result of the many mentors I have worked with as well as the experiences of my clients. My technique is based on the combined wisdom of my acclaimed teachers and mentors: Marianne Williamson, Debbie Ford, T Harv Eker, Dehyana Lim, Byron Katie, John Gray, Carl Jung, Vianna Stibal and Anthony Robins, to name a few. Their teachings have impacted my life tremendously and have inspired me to develop a teaching of my own. I created a coaching style to give you the best of the best!

It makes me smile when I recall what I used to think of as my negative life experiences – now I see they were all a part of the plan for me to develop my own coaching to guide others!

Through my teachings, processes and profound questioning, I can cut through years of baggage that previously held you back and bring about long-standing change. My clients say they are drawn to my enthusiasm for life and my deep understanding of the human condition.
