“ When I separated from my husband I fell into a depression that kept me in bed for days on end. I couldn't talk to friends or relatives; I didn't want to be critized for what I believed was my failure to save my twenty year marriage. I was stuck. I needed an objective, non judgmental ear, I needed a push. Yacine' coaching helped me to map out a strategy for handling my pain and future. ”

“ In one session I complained that my ex had taken family photographs without the permission I thought he should have asked for. I explained that the holes and faded outlines on my walls, where family pictures once hung left my house looking haphazard and unfinished, they accentuated my emptiness.
‘Take the pictures down’ she told me. Four simple words, a simple action–which hadn't occurred to me. Those words freed me, lifted a weight from my heart and gently pushed me to get off my butt and stop wallowing in self pity. ”

“ I have worked with Yacine several years. She has supported me as I have built self–confidence and have made choices that I never thought I would be making. She has guided me through letting go of my adult children and in improving my relationships with them, starting a business, furthering my education, and making important changes in improving my relationship with my husband. She has supported keeping me at the center when I was ready to defer. It has been an active process moving forward to make this one special life I have indeed the best that it can be.”
