  • Thrilled with Her Support

    I recently worked with Sheri to help me progress successfully to my ICF PCC credential. Sheri offered a structured program and with her insights for the specific requirements from the ICF at this level she gave me honest, constructive feedback such that my performance gradually and regularly improved.

    During this time, the relationship we had was friendly and developmental and it gave me great encouragement and confidence, especially important since I’d not been able to achieve the standard the first time round. I am delighted to recommend Sheri to any aspiring applicant – you will be thrilled with her support.

  • Listening Below the Surface

    I worked with Sheri for a few months as a Mentor Coach to help me prepare for the ICF Master Coach credentialing exam. As a coach myself with over 25 years coaching experience and a developer of other coaches, it became quickly apparent to me that Sheri is the epitome of “the coach’s coach”. In addition to being insightful and compassionate, Sheri was able to work with me simultaneously on two levels: (1) deepening my skill and expertise and (2) helping me stand on a solid foundation of confidence and self-appreciation.

    Sheri demonstrates a finely tuned ear for listening below the surface of conversation to extract the skillful nuances, intentions and personality of the coach. Sheri also highlights gaps with clarity, directness and gentleness in ways that feel more like opportunities to grow than “mistakes.”

    I highly recommend Sheri as a partner in moving you to the next level.

  • Gentle Yet Precise

    I’ve had the pleasure working with Sheri as my mentor from November 2010 to May 2011 while preparing for my ICF certification. I’ve enjoyed every session with Sheri and at the same time learned a lot. I was living in Asia and Europe throughout the period and the sessions were all carried out on Skype. She listening to some of my recorded coaching sessions and provided me feedback afterwards in a very gentle yet precise way. On top of that she’s got a great sense of humor as well as deep knowledge of coaching and how to perform as a good coach for others. I won’t hesitate to recommend Sheri or get back in touch whenever I need a coach or mentor.
