Diana’s Personal Message to you
I look forward to hearing from you to learn how I may help you. If I am to become your counselor or coach, I want you to know about my personal side, and how my life has prepared me to be in a position to have helped so many people on a wide range of issues.
Passionate to Help People Find their Core Strengths and Life Goals
I have had several careers which include 10 years in the New York theatre: dancing with the New York Ballet Company, appearing on Broadway and off Broadway, and working as a fashion model. When I left the theatre, I became part owner of a manufacturing business. Many life transitions led me to my true calling: a passion to help people find their core strengths and life goals, and help them thrive and grow through all of life’s challenges.
First Hand Knowledge of the Dynamics of Different Sized Organizations
I earned my masters degree in counseling psychology and joined an employee assistance company providing counseling, coaching, consulting, and speaking services to employees and executives. It has been my privilege to be an integral part of the company’s development from an individual ownership to what is now a division of a major national healthcare organization. The experience has provided me with firsthand knowledge of the dynamics of different sized organizations and organization change.
My wide range of experience gave me a great appreciation of the many ways people see the world. It helped me understand my clients’ unique perspectives and to better help them achieve their goals.
In my own business, Savvy Life Skills, I am transitioning to the next phase of my life of more independence and freedom.Every life transition provides the opportunity to explore new challenges and new life paths, if you dare to make the changes. I have taken up the challenge. I invite you to allow me to join you as your counselor or coach as you take up your own challenge.
My Philosophy and Style
My counseling and coaching are based on the New Positive Psychology that focuses on your essential strengths and Positive Possibilities. I believe you have the potential for many life paths, and that you have many innate capacities to accomplish a wide variety of things. As your counselor or coach, I will guide you to discover your Core Strengths and unlock the power of your Positive Potential to accomplish what you want. I believe you have the gift to thrive and grow through life’s difficulties. The key to achieve your goals and develop your potential is to tap into that gift, no matter what adversity life hands you.
