"Within a few sessions, I met someone and we are so happy together 8 months later. For once, at age 39, I am finally in a healthy, long-term, committed relationship."
Melanie is the best dating coach I randomly stumbled across in a Google search during a time when I had just about given up on dating all together. I look back now and am so grateful I found her. Within a few sessions, I met someone and we are so happy together 8 months later. For once, at age 39, I am finally in a healthy, long-term, committed relationship. Melanie helped me get perspective on the ways I was thinking about dating that just weren’t serving me. I learned to go into dating again with hope, remembering my self-worth, being able to take care of myself, and keeping an open mind. I think it made all the difference in me still being with my partner today. It helps to know I have Melanie to support me through all my anxiety in every step of this relationship. She’s so encouraging, honest, caring, validating, and supportive. I can’t say enough good things about her. If you’re single and feeling hopeless, do not spend a second hesitating to set up an appointment with Melanie. You’ll thank yourself, I’m certain of it!

Melanie helped me land my dream job, she supported me through a big move across the country, and most importantly through our work together I learned to love and value myself.
“When I first found Melanie, I was feeling overwhelmed and hopeless. I was unhappy where I was living, not satisfied at my job, and felt very disconnected from myself. Through working with Melanie, I reconnected with my core values and my authentic self that had been suppressed for years. She created an environment that allowed me to be vulnerable and figure out what my goals were, as well as motivated me to take action to achieve them. Melanie helped me land my dream job, she supported me through a big move across the country, and most importantly through our work together I learned to love and value myself. I can now say that I’m truly fulfilled in my life and no longer feel stuck. I’m so grateful to Melanie for all of her support and guidance, I wouldn’t be where I am today without her coaching. “

"She supported me and believed in me until I was ready to believe in myself."
Melanie has been indispensable in bringing me from low confidence to high confidence, from being confused about what I want to do with my life to knowing exactly what I want in and also being ready to date again. She supported me and believed in me until I was ready to believe in myself. Thank you Melanie!

When I needed a reset on my dating life, Melanie was the perfect antidote.
When I needed a reset on my dating life, Melanie was the perfect antidote. She listened carefully, kindly called out when I was limiting my thinking, and celebrated each success, no matter how small. She gave me opportunities to come to my own conclusions and gracefully navigated me away from negative self-perceptions. Throughout the course of our sessions together, I discovered the reframing I needed to go back into dating more practiced and more secure in my worth and what I am looking for in a long term partner.

I credit the work I did with Melanie as a key reason for my current relationship, which is incredibly fulfilling,
“Working with Melanie was truly a life altering gift. Her grounded and insightful approach was exactly what I needed to navigate my dating goals and priorities. She provided helpful guidance to change my relationship patterns through thought provoking questions and subsequent "homework" projects. I credit the work I did with Melanie as a key reason for my current relationship, which is incredibly fulfilling, brings me tremendous happiness, is wildly fun and just overall wonderful. I feel fortunate to have worked with Melanie and encourage anyone considering this type of coaching to reach out to her. “

Before I started working with Melanie, I would describe myself as a passenger in my own life, waiting and hoping for things to change without much intention, clarity, or action.
"Before I started working with Melanie, I would describe myself as a passenger in my own life, waiting and hoping for things to change without much intention, clarity, or action. When I found Melanie, I was feeling unfulfilled in my life, my career, and my relationships. She helped me rediscover what is important to me, get clear on my goals, and then actually believe it's possible to achieve them as well as come up with a plan to make my goals happen. She helped me work through my people pleasing tendencies and I learned to set healthy boundaries and break unhealthy patterns that were no longer serving me. I feel so much more confident and fulfilled after working with Melanie and I can also say that I'm no longer a passenger but in the driver's seat of my life."
