I am a life coach specializing in supporting people in midlife who find themselves having to start over. Whether it's after a divorce, the loss of a job or a home, or moving into a new phase of life, you've come to the right place.
I look at coaching as a collaboration, and a tool to help you to access your own intuition and deep knowing about what is right for you.

Working with Deborah was incredibly supportive during a very transitional time in my life. She was sensitive yet resolute in our sessions, which helped me feel held and also allowed me to see some truths that were holding me back in my life. I saw Deborah weekly for a six-month period and I felt that there was the perfect flow with an opening, a middle and closure. Though I could have seen Deborah for another six months, I feel the way she guided the sessions allowed for plenty of room to accomplish moving forward and there was a sense of completion when our time together ended. Deborah is both professional and personal in her work as a life coach and I am very grateful for our time together. More...
WYATT COUNTS
Deborah comes into each session with energy, an open heart, and curiosity. She helps me explore what’s happening in the moment as well the larger issues that we’ve worked on over the 3 1/2 years we’ve been coaching together. In my experience, Deborah doesn’t come into a session with an agenda or lesson plan. She begins by checking in on where I’m at now and also touches on issues I’ve brought up in past sessions. Her questioning week to week helps me zero in on what is holding me back, all while encouraging me to celebrate wins. Time spent talking with Deborah is jam packed and goes fast, and I find that I am now able to be curious about my feelings without self judgment, and more aware of my thoughts and reactions. Deborah has helped me overcome the bitterness of a bad break-up, but maybe more importantly, has given me a toolkit of techniques to use every day. More...

Deborah was recommended by a mutual friend who knew I was navigating major career and life transitions. Upon first meeting her (over Zoom), it was clear that she has a special ability to listen deeply, and extensive training in facilitating clarity and awareness of feeling. Importantly, Deborah provided a much-needed toolkit to develop my own practice of mindfulness and open my heart to my own internal wisdom. All of this helped me find clarity and peace during my transitions and empowered me to navigate life more deliberately and with less anxiety. I highly recommend her coaching if you need help navigating change in your life. Deborah is truly a talented, professional, and compassionate; she helped me greatly! More...
What do you love most about your job?
My favorite part of my job is seeing someone's face light up with an aha moment, a moment of deep understanding which had eluded them before. I love to connect deeply with people and see their true selves emerge. And helping people navigate the challenges of big transitions with as much grace as possible is important to me, as I know how difficult those times can be.
Why should our clients choose you?
I have many years of coaching experience and life experience, and have been through the upheaval of starting over in midlife, myself - going through a divorce, losing my home, having the bottom fall out of my finances, and changing careers, all at the same time. I create a judgment-free zone for my clients, where they can explore their own losses and transitions and make a solid plan for moving forward. I am there for them every step of the way, using compassion, intuition, experience and accountability to guide the process.
