Testimonials - Personal Growth

Brooke has a very powerful combination of abilities:  he is warm and a great listener, but he doesn't waver from staying on point.  As a coach, he manages to balance letting me share and guiding me in a session to what needs to be accomplished. His pragmatic approach is therapeutic due to his empathy and incisive guidance. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for clarity and a practical way through difficult times.

Brooke could coach blood out of a stone. With our once-a week check-in, I have been able to begin to understand and address the limiting beliefs, which have kept me stuck for years. Brooke is interested in only in progress; he won't waste a minute of your time or a cent of your money.

I have experienced tremendous personal growth as a result of working with Brooke. As a full time, working mother of two, I had found myself always serving others and putting aside my own needs. Brooke has helped me to realize that I need to take good care of myself and focus on my own needs in order to sustain happiness and well being. He has shown me that unless we have clarity about what we really want, we cannot harness our inner powers. By setting clear goals and focusing my attention and efforts to move forward, not only have we improved my health and physical well being, but we have worked together to improve my career path, and the quality of relationships I hold. Brooke’s knowledge, inspiration and positive energy, have provided a great support system to help me sustain balance in my life, and move toward greater health and happiness, and most importantly, to enjoy the journey.

Anyway, the big lesson seems to me to SET REALISTIC GOALS, even if they don't seem sufficiently ambitious, because the only way to get anywhere is one small step at a time. In fact, this is the major problem that I face with work and most tasks I undertake - I do not break the tasks into manageable pieces, so I get overwhelmed and paralyzed. I am much happier, calmer, and more productive when I set small, realistic goals and achieve them.
Thanks for your help. You are right that having a facilitator and having a weekly session really make a difference. It's much easier to remain positive, in part because it's a matter of getting from one week to the next, not from here to eternity.

Brooke has a natural gift for seeing the shortest distance between two points…
The progress I made within three weeks of working with him was astonishing. Looking forward to more with excited optimism.

You have been an all in one coach for me. Supporting me with my career, health and relationships. Thanks for your recent great coaching regarding my anxiety about the horse competition. On my way to the ring, I affirmed my ability, belief in self, and the fact that I have been riding for years. It enabled me to fully enjoy the ride, leave the ring with a smile, and love the sport I live for. I thank you once again for your support, guidance, and always holding the seat of an amazing coach for me. You have become a very special part of my life, and for that I am blessed.

Brooke- you have shown me that there are life can be bigger and I can make great things happen. When I started my coaching sessions, I was really stuck, so stuck that I did not see any way out of it. Now that is behind me, and all I see are the endless possibilities. Thanks for the support.

Richard A. New York NY

Thank you for your really great coaching skills! So many things have changed for me since we started our sessions together. I am eating well and exercising for the first time in can’t remember how long, and that is small compared to the other huge steps we have taken with my business and relationship. Thanks Brooke.

Life coaching has been more effective for me than other types of therapy because it is more to the point. Identifying and then working on what I want for my life right now is more productive and rewarding than rehashing everything that did not work in the past. Brooke is enormously talented at facilitating this process and his dynamic energy keeps me motivated.

Elizabeth L. Kent, CT

Athletes have coaches even when they are pros. It makes me wonder why people don’t. As my coach, you not only give me more insight into myself and to the people who matter most to me, but you also enriched my life by caring about me and making me a better person.

Anna S. Pittsburgh, PA.

Brooke gave me the objective viewpoint necessary to refocus me on the issues most important to me. Today, it is easy to get caught up in life's distractions, lose focus on what is really important, and find yourself in a life that is not really your own. With Brooke, that simply won't happen.

Jennifer L. New York, NY

The weekly coaching sessions have enabled me a have a greater level of awareness about many important issues in my life, from what makes a healthy diet to dealing with family situations in a more productive way. I find that the regular conversations with Brooke keep a positive momentum for me so that I am always making progress and that way I am less likely to return to old ways.

Bob W. New York, NY

I like Brooke’s approach to coaching a tremendous amount: by working with my values, beliefs, and goals I am implementing a well-conceived plan of action that I feel great about. His calm and compassionate third-party analysis is invaluable. Brooke differs from a therapist in that he demands action based after analysis on one’s belief system. Bravo!
