Values-Based Coaching
A Guide for Social Workers and Other Human Service Professionals
Marilyn, has been a mentor and guide supreme for me, as a coach and as a professional. She
brings great integrity, love, creativity and passion to her work with clients. I continue to work
with her and would recommend her to anyone interested in challenging themselves to be their
finest, as a professional and as a person. She is a rare and wonderful person, colleague and coach.

Marilyn is an intelligent, articulate and dynamic entrepreneur as well as a gifted business coach.
A brief conversation with Marilyn is like holding a brainstorming session with a mastermind
group. You come away refreshed and full of actionable ideas to improve your professional and
personal development.

Marilyn’s training was invaluable to me personally and also gave me a new paradigm to bring
to my agency where we work with HIV+ teens. Guiding the kids to look ahead to a future they
could design according to what’s important to them not only instilled new hope in their lives
but directly led to increased medication compliance, and inspired all of us.

Marilyn is an engaging and experienced coach and teacher. In her seminar, she instructs attendees
on the differences between coaching and consulting, explains personal and professional coaching,
and describes how to build a coaching business. I found the sessions very worthwhile
and recommend them for anyone who thinks coaching may be of professional interest.

I attended three coach-related workshops, listened to approximately twenty-five hours of coachrelated
tapes, read many articles, spent hours on the internet “checking out” coaching websites,
newsletters, and various general philosophies of coaching. I was “turned-off” by “hard sell”
approaches I encountered. In contrast, your conference had many refreshing, practical aspects
that could be beneficial to [any] professional transitioning into coaching. A day well spent.
Thank you.

Recently, Marilyn accepted a high profile coach training assignment with the Epilepsy Foundation
Massachusetts & Rhode Island. The focus of Marilyn’s work will have significant impact
in New England as well as other Epilepsy Affiliates through out the United States. Marilyn’s
professional yet relaxed training style left the EFMRI employees energized and motivated to
build a successful employment program. The knowledge that was gained affects both the employees’
personal and professional lives in a positive manner. Her humor and engaging personality
created a safe haven to explore potential roadblocks and to enhance insight into successful goal
planning. Marilyn is an exceptional ambassador for the coaching profession bringing credit to
women in business in Boston and beyond.
