Meet Marina, ICF Certified Coach
Together, we'll tap your passion about the possibilities before you, assess the gap between where you are and where you want to be, and create a sense of purpose accountability, and urgency for moving in that direction. As your Coach, I will support you with skills, techniques, and deep listening as you practice and make progress over time.
​
You wouldn't be here if you didn't have the motivation, growth mindset, and drive to evolve your life. So the question is,
​
What will be possible as you become a more clear, confident, and courageous you?

My approach helps you develop crucial skills to consciously communicate, resolve conflict, build consensus, and navigate complex change in ways that align with your values.

Deepen reflection and expand awareness about your present reality.

What to Expect from Marina's Coaching
I am an experienced and certified professional coach (ICF ACC) trained in the Brown University's ACT Model of Leadership Coaching. My unique approach incorporates mindfulness, conflict resolution and collaborative leadership skills that achieve sustainable results for my clients. We begin with an initial “fit” assessment and then create a customized plan to attain your goals. While the approach can vary, I often recommend committing to a four-month program that combines coaching with targeted skills training to help you achieve outcomes that live on long after coaching has ended.

Other Coaching Options
JUST-IN-TIME COACHING

TEAM AND GROUP COACHING
When it comes to teams, it’s not only about what you accomplish, but how you work together and how it feels.
The Team Coaching package focuses on turning a group of colleagues into a connected, functioning team.
It engages team members on multiple levels and is designed for sustained effectiveness after the coaching ends. Rates vary depending on the size of the organization and coaching team.
