Experienced tutor in Life coaching in Montclair, Allison offers private lessons tailored to your needs.

“For me, personal coaching was sort of like a much more practical form of therapy that focused not talking about your feelings, but coming up with solutions to your challenges. Allison really analyzed mine, pointing out issues that I hadn’t even realized, and then helping me come up with small, doable ways to chip away at problems. She’s wise but very down-to-earth, has a great sense of humor and can be aggressive in a really good way that makes it hard NOT to make progress with her. At one point when we were stuck on one issue, I found myself thinking extra-hard, partly in fear that she wouldn’t let me out of her office until we had a breakthrough! (And as a result, we did!) Most of all, I found it invaluable to get the perspective of someone who was entirely objective – with no investment in my situation other than wanting me to reach my goals. I couldn’t recommend her more highly.”

My Mount Everest, or “monster under the bed” as Allison humorously referred to it, was my financial situation. I could no longer run away from the frightening reality of it. Well, with Allison’s guidance, encouragement, knowledge of resources, and positive approach, the topic of my finances became manageable and a little less scary. Since working with Allison, my life has improved in too many ways to name. I can say that my greatest achievement has been that I have stopped running away from whatever is thrown at me. I feel as though i am “plugged into life” again.”
