I am the mother of NieCat. Nie is 21 years old and Cat is an 18 year old senior in high school. My heart smiles to also say I am the GrandMother (Abuelita) to the MOST beautiful Grandson in the entire Galaxy!
I am a certified professional Life Coach who specializes in personal growth, parental skills and teen coaching, and I maintain a private practice in Miami, Florida.
I serve as a private practitioner working with parents and teenagers. In addition to being a certified professional Life Coach, I am also an elementary school site administrator. For the last 25 years I have worked for Miami-Dade County Schools. My 25 years in education has given me the credentials and expertise in dealing effectively with parents and children alike.
I work collaboratively with parents as well as with teenagers in order to accomplish identified goals and objectives in a non-judgmental atmosphere of trust. Through this proven approach, I effectively address personal life challenges. I integrate my educational background, my experience as NieCat's mother for the last 23 years along with effective coaching techniques to offer a highly-personalized program tailored to parents and teens.
I support, empower, mentor and motivate parents as well as teenagers to identify goals and objectives to accomplish lasting self-improvement.
