Spiritual + Life + Wellness Coaching
Spiritual Coaching has a power unsurpassed
“Diane I wanted you to know how our ‘wonderful coaching dance’ facilitated moving a boulder out of the way for me. I am happy to report that I feel free and unblocked to move ahead. I thank you sincerely for this. I think working with you Diane was a wonderful example of Spiritual Coaching, it has a power that is unsurpassed.”
N.M. St.Louis, USAA new level of peace and love
“There has been a real shift in how I relate to my family, and myself. I am more present with my children and have a more intimate connection with my wife. I understand what kinds of thinking and circumstances are likely to trigger my addictive patterns of avoidance, and have a number of tools to help me with those thoughts, and to forgive and love myself, regardless of how I respond to those thoughts. I have found new levels of peace and love, and Diane has played a significant role in that development.”
J.C. TaiwanSpiritual, intuitive and creative
“In the time that I have known Diane, I have become greatly impressed by her level of commitment and her professionalism. Her personal and professional development over the last number of years has been very obvious. She has come into a whole new arena altogether, and that is why she will be very successful.
Her quickness of response, sifting through and deciphering what's going on, all the time checking with me that she's on the 'right track', has been honed to being clear and natural. There is a seamless flow in a session and ability to pick up the threads and weave it, has been very powerful for me. It's approaching the spiritual, - intuitive and creative.
Diane, it's been a real privilege to be your client.”
A.A. Nelson, NZA palpable coaching presence
“I loved how I heard the things I said, said back to me in a new way and it totally resonated with me. Your presence was right there with me. It had gentleness, encouragement and celebratory qualities. You asked such wonderful questions.”
Nikki, USAWorking intuitively and effectively
“I thought it was absolutely beautiful. It (the Coaching) flowed so freely and organically, with great acknowledgement and powerful questions. You were able to hone in on the crux of the issue and in a very gentle way. You always checked in with me. It was very honouring and inspirational.
The shift from my experience of fear to the heart was very powerful. It was great how you helped me to clarify my understanding of the difference between religion and spirituality. You gave me lots of genuine affirmation and validation. You work very intuitively.”
Francesca, USAProfessional aplomb
“Diane met and exceeded the expectations I had going into the coaching experience. She was completely professional and has a style, which makes even the most difficult discussions feel ‘safe’.
This coaching relationship dealt effectively with the results of a number of unpleasant experiences – Diane dealt with the whole situation with a level of professionalism and aplomb for which I would like to applaud her.
Diane – thank you.”
C.G. Auckland, NZSynthesis of the spiritual and the practical
“Diane exceeded my expectations. She has the unique ability to synthesize the spiritual and the practical in a way that emphasizes spiritually-based action. I greatly appreciated this because my purpose as a client was to join my spirituality with forward motion.”
“Diane brought a deep knowledge of spirituality (in its countless forms) and an understanding of the processes that are necessary to move a client forward. She possesses a quiet strength that is simultaneously supportive and action-oriented. I also appreciated her knowledge of NLP-based techniques.”
“Diane invited me to experiment with different processes to change my perspective around issues that were frustrating me. Although these appeared to be simple exercises on the surface, they often led me to great new insights. I can say (without exaggeration) that I had a true epiphany during one of our recent sessions and it has opened up new possibilities for me and my future.”
Diane is a gifted coach with a clear understanding of many coaching processes. She is an active listener. I appreciated her support and feedback and have no doubt that she will be a powerful coach to many, many people.”
Robert Logue, Florida, USAFollowing the energy beautifully"It was very fantastic coaching. You were very intuitive, following the energies of the sessions so beautifully. You stayed fully present in each session. Excellent."
A.S., New York, USAOpened my eyes to my own experience
“It was very helpful and interesting Coaching. It opened my eyes to my own experience. As a coach you did very nice listening. You were very sensitive and present. You created a safe environment for me to explore, which is exactly what I needed. It was definitely spiritual coaching, without the spiritual commercial connotations. You worked intuitively and that lifted my own experience to an intuitive level.”

I have witnessed staff discussing how they can utilise the techniques you showed them and other staff feeling they really owe you something as you opened something for them.”
C.M Nelson, NZConflict Resolution Facilitation

H.D. Nelson, NZTuned into creating positive change
“Diane takes into account ideas and input from each person through individual consultation. She acknowledges the energy each party brings to the process and ensures that each session does not fall into the rut of emotional habit and unconsciousness. I very much value everything I learnt.”
