Psychoeducation, Consulting & Coaching
Helping people and organizations work better, together and within themselves.
Psychological principles can be powerful tools for strengthening and optimizing leadership, relationships, communication, decision-making, and resilience.
Through EDI, I provide psychoeducational programs, consulting, and coaching for businesses, organizations, executives, leaders, teams, couples, and families who want to improve the way they think, communicate, respond to challenges, and work together.
I draw on my expertise in psychological concepts such as human behavior, relationships, communication, emotional intelligence, conflict, boundaries, and behavioral change to help solve consequential organizational problems and strengthen organizational performance.
