"I think you are incredible and I love that you see me bigger than I see myself. … You have created for me a very safe and courageous space, where I feel seen and heard and loved no matter what shows up. I don't believe it could get any better than that and I hope I can emulate that to my clients."

The whole process of coaching and mentoring has prepared me in ways my fellow coaches haven't discovered. Discovering my niche was so impactful - I didn't know ho wto choose, but with Ari's help I landed on a niche and was able to walk out of coaching and begin the business of coaching."

Lorraine W., Vancouver, BC

"These sessions were like laser-focused supervisions. I came away from each with clearly actionable areas of focus. I feel my coaching has improved significantly as a result of my exam prep work.

If I could give other coaches one piece of advice, it would be to work with Coaching Tree for more than just exam prep - I partnered with them from before I attended my first workshop through my exam. I felt like I was able to get an extra layer of knowledge and competence for coaching."

Ann Y., Minnetrista, MN

"Thank you so much; I don’t know how I would have done this without you and Ari helping out. How lucky that I saw your notice about The Coaching  Tree! My first call to you two really was the beginning of my knowing that I could do this… and that I would do it. Thanks again to both of you for all the help and support. "

- Kelli R., CPCC, Quincy, MA

"Working with two coaches from Coaching Tree who had gone through the certification exam really worked wonders at reducing my gremlins and helping me trust in my coaching abilities. I highly recommend utilizing Coaching Tree if you are about to take the coaching exam so you can feel confident and assured on exam day."

- Bekka M., CPCC, San Francisco, CA

"Ari offered me fresh perspectives and insights based on what I brought up in each session. This has been very, very helpful and supportive. She also offered me very appropriate, important and timely resources through our e-mail exchange."

- Erik L., CPCC, Denmark

"It was great to have two fabulous coaches on the call allowing for feedback that was much more powerful, incisive and nuanced. It was like working with a team of people who were listening at Levels 2 and 3, and all on your side. I found the feedback very clear, very specific, and incredibly helpful. The whole experience gave me the boost I needed to approach my exam from my most powerful, competent, and confident self."

- Katie K., CPCC, Springfield, MA

"Your services were helpful on a number of levels. The information, support and feedback you both gave me allowed me to stay present and grounded. You knew what to look for in an exam candidate - I left the call feeling very confident and competent for my testing. Thank you for your support and guidance - what a service you offer to support other coaches' successes and achievements!"

- Valerie M., CPCC, Boston, MA

"I felt completely supported and held in a space that allowed me to do my best coaching. Thank you so much for the warmth. The feedback was so what I needed. It was concrete, direct, and very thorough. Afer our call I felt so confident in my abilities and that confidence carried me through the exam."

- Shannon S., CPCC, Winooski, VT

"It is amazing how circular my life has become since our coaching has begun.... one thing certainly leads to another without effort. I never would have believed that years ago when I was trying so hard and couldn't achieve what I wanted. Now the path is obvious to me without even trying to see it.

The best thing I have ever done in my life (besides my family) is hiring YOU!"

Coaching has brought me results to create change in my life that was much needed. Awareness, clarity and confidence grew from our time together and you helped me bring it all together... Coaching with you has shifted my life into mindful living."

- Pam C., Zionsville, PA
