I thank you so very much for all you did for me. I should say that you make me do it for me! I appreciate all the time and energy you spent with me… guiding me… showing me.. leading me towards what is best for me! I think you led me to find what was already inside of me.

It has been a pleasure working with you and I look forward to more of it in the future! Again, thank you for the hours you spent listening and talking with me!”

As you know, being a trial attorney we are constantly looking for new ways to improve our current position in the legal community. We spend our days speaking to juries and individuals who must be impressed with our presence and use of the English language. Based on your recommendations, suggestions, and other positive support reinforcement, we are committed to moving forward on our newly revised goals for 2001.

I wish you continued success in your chosen field, and I am happy that I will not to have to face you in a courtroom as an adversary. I am sure the jury would find any argument of yours compelling. If at any time you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact my office and again, it has been a great pleasure working with you and, I look forward to an ongoing relationship with you and your organization.

Very truly yours,

I simply cannot say enough about Mary. She is brilliant, highly experienced, extremely well read and graciously resourceful. She has, on occasion, provided me with valuable references as well as introductions to people prominent in the field.

However, the best things that I can say about Mary involve her personal coaching! She has managed to bring me, a former engineer turned psychotherapist, out of semi-retirement and into a new life as a coach and seminar presenter! She has done all this without any overt direction but, rather, by simply asking me a series of pertinent questions. Moreover, she has assisted me in the obtaining of formalized training via an enrollment in COACHU and local seminars.

Additionally, her skills are even more evident when she provides mentoring! Other than when I ask purely procedural questions, she does not give any overt direction. She prefers, rather, to deal with the questions that come up in the course of my practice. Here again, she is inclined to support, validate and endorse my efforts, where possible, while asking me a series of pertinent questions, the answers to which challenge me to continue on further, and now, in a possibly improved direction!

To date, I have taken no less than nine courses and have attended the International Coach Federation conference in Scottsdale , Arizona . However, I feel that the vast majority of my training has, thus far, come from Mary, whom I consider a master coach!

Personal Coach

I have recommended Mary to several speakers and professionals who I felt would benefit from Mary’s guidance and coaching. I have used Mary’s expertise in both my public relations firm and my speakers bureau.

I also know Mary personally. She is a person of high ethics. She is successful because on a personal level she is honest and fair. Her personal qualities have always complimented and been compatible with her professional qualities. She is very well thought of among her colleagues and friends. I have heard her competitors complement Mary on numerous occasions. I cannot think of a higher recommendation.”
