We can work together to help you achieve your highest aspirations.

Thank you for visiting my site. I’m not currently taking new clients, but I’d be happy to recommend a coach I trust if you’d like to let me know a bit about your interest in coaching. Please feel free to click here and send me an email.
I’m a Certified Positive Psychology Coach offering career coaching, life coaching, and executive coaching. I meet with local clients in my sunny office in Montclair NJ, and with clients from around the world by phone or video. If you’re making changes in your life or work, or pursuing a significant goal, I believe you’ll find that I have the successful experience and specialized expertise necessary to help you get to where you want to go — even if you’re not yet sure where that is.
I won’t hesitate to jump in and work with you to actually get things done.
It’s what I do best, and my favorite part of being a coach.



While the heart of my work is one-on-one coaching, I also serve on the teaching faculty at Kripalu Center and as Director of the Coach Training Program at Wholebeing Institute, offering online and in-person courses for aspiring, new, and established coaches.
Want to know more? There’s plenty on the site to explore, including information about my background as well as informative articles, information about fees, excerpts from my book, and directions to my office.
I hope you’ll get in touch to schedule a consultation so we can discuss what’s going on in your life, work, or business, and how we might approach a coaching engagement designed to help you achieve your highest aspirations.
Warm regards,
Lynda

A Short Course in Happiness
I wrote A Short Course in Happiness to offer readers a distillation of the essential research findings on the steps we can take to live happier, more meaningful, and more successful lives. I was surprised and delighted when it became a best-seller on Amazon.
I’m now writing my second book. Based on my work as a coach and teacher, it lays out a clear process for successfully achieving goals and navigating transitions.
