"Essie was the most informative and kind mentor during my mediation practicum. She showed me the importance of asking why in every situation. Her passion to help mediate others’ problems, big or small, shines through with every conversation. I’m so glad I had the opportunityto work directly with Essie to learn valuable conflict resolution skills that I use in my personal and professional life.

Essie's coaching had even more of an impact on my life than I expected. It cleared my way forward. I learned universal techniques that I apply everywhere, across personal, cultural, and business settings.  After working with Essie I feel much braver in approaching conflictual situations. It's also gotten easier just to talk to people in general. Essie's warmth, humanity, and personality made me feel very secure and I felt comfortable trusting her with every detail of my situation. I highly recommend Essie's coaching.

Working with Essie made me a better communicator. She taught me methods of speaking with clarity and confidence, something I always struggled with when talking about myself. Thanks to our sessions, I have become a stronger advocate for myself and this has helped me move up in my career.

Hey there!

Hi! I’m Essie.

I am a conflict resolution practitioner, an artist, and a forever student of human nature. By heritage I am a first-generation Soviet Jewish American. I grew up bilingual and still speak Russian fluently. Navigating between cultures is its own kind of beast, and I am always inspired to work with others who share this experience.

Frequently asked questions

What is coaching?
Chevron

Coaching is YOUR growth process, guided by me via interventions that support your self-awareness, inherent wisdom, and capacity for growth. What we do in sessions will be a combination of dialogue and experiential exercises tailored to your desired outcome. Your vision and intention will define where we go. The coaching process, and my attention and commitment to you, will support you in getting there.  

Is coaching a type of therapy?
Chevron

Coaching is not therapy, although it should absolutely feel emotionally nourishing and therapeutic if all goes well! Coaching is typically bounded in time, goal-oriented, and framed around changing behaviors and creating new courses of action. A coach does not have medical or mental health expertise (unless they are also a doctor or therapist) and is not equipped to diagnose or help you navigate mental health challenges. That said, the behavioral and lifestyle changes that result from coaching can certainly transform your experience of life, just as therapy aims to do.

What is the outcome of coaching?
Chevron

What you get out depends on what you put in. As with coaching for sport, music, language learning, etc., you build capacity and skill through practice. I ask that you to commit to showing up, engaging wholeheartedly, and challenging yourself to transform insight into action. If you do that, I can promise that you will become a powerful and agile negotiator of your life!
