During a coaching session with Maria I was struggling with some issues and Maria pulled out a video which she thought might be helpful to me. It was about the Meridian Tapping Technique. We watched the video together and then she walked me through some of the exercises. I was immediately intrigued and felt that this was something that could help me, as well as something I could do. She explained to me about the meridian points and energy and about how important it is to truly love and accept myself just as I am and right where I am in life.
I asked Maria many questions and she patiently answered them and explained how and why this could benefit me. It was especially helpful when she told me that it did not matter if I did it perfectly or if I got the words exactly right or not. Just going ahead and trying it and really putting my energy into it was the most important. I knew that was something I could do, and knowing that I didn’t have to do it perfectly gave me the confidence to go ahead and try it. I tried it right away the next day and I was amazed that I was able to do it on my own and at the amount of energy that it released in me! I immediately had to share this with Maria and she was so excited for me! We’ve since talked about the tapping on several different occasions. I continue to use the Meridian Tapping Technique and it is wonderful to be able to share this with Maria and to be able to go to her with any questions that may come up. She is a wonderful coach and guide; and she has taught me several other things as well, such as how to use a “God Jar” and write my concerns down, put them in the jar, and give them to God and then let them go and learn to trust. This is a tough one for me, but it’s proving to be a very valuable lesson.
I see in Maria a wonderful coach, because she does not just talk and tell people things. She talks from experience and actually does these things herself and therefore can understand where someone is coming from. She is also very patient, kind, and loving, and I believe these are all wonderful attributes for a coach. She has helped me so much and I am glad that she will be helping many others as well.

I have had many deeply moving and profound coaching sessions with Maria. She has been a shining light in my life. She provides a safe and yes, fun, learning environment. We do laugh a lot in our sessions and I have learned from her to approach things much more with lightness. Through her gentle questioning and, her listening skills during our coaching conversations, she is able to have me understand (“see”) where I am locked into my own interpretations and stories, which have me stuck and not give me the capability to take any action to move forward. She is almost like a magician who can open up many different ways of looking at a situation. But she does not tell me anything or fix anything. That’s the magic of working with her. I also believe she is definitely a healer. From my work with her, one that comes to mind was when I was having a bunch of back trouble; but there was nothing physically wrong. We spent our whole session discussing possible non-physical causes that may manifest in the lower back physically. As soon as she mentioned that it may have something to do with feeling non-supported…it was like the light went off and bingo….I knew what relationship (adult daughter) may be a culprit. Maria suggested some tools and inspired me to do a daily practice, which could help me release some of my long-standing suppressed feelings and energy. She also worked with me through energy processes. There were many others I could mention also but this one stands out. Maria’s insights have been amazing and she has been a tremendous help.
