Coaching

Melanie helps develop strong, responsible leaders, advises executives through transitions both in and outside of their organizations, and helps restore confidence for those experiencing career setbacks. In private clinical practice for over 30 years, she compassionately guides clients through complex emotional and organizational challenges.

Melanie is engaged for 1:1 coaching directly by individuals or through their companies.

She collects data, identifies behavioral and attitudinal patterns, and delivers feedback that enhances self-awareness. Covert tensions that hinder productivity and happiness in the workplace are revealed, clearing the path to shared problem solving and increased success.
