Offering guidance, support, and inspiration to those around you? You’ve felt the joy of being a guiding light, but perhaps also the uncertainty—wondering if your support was truly effective or if there’s a more powerful way to help.
I was an “unofficial” coach for years before I trained professionally. I had successes, and I had doubts.
Like most professions, coaching is a blend of art and science. You may already possess some of the art, and if you’re ready to deepen your skills, build your confidence, and continue growing as a coach, this may be exactly what you’ve been looking for. Gift yourself—and those you’ll impact—by investing in professional training that will elevate your coaching.

Hi, I’m Yehudis. Supporting individuals as they navigate life’s challenges — and find their way back to themselves and each other — is my life’s work and a true privilege. As an IFS therapist, I believe each of us holds a deep well of wisdom and resilience, even when it feels hidden beneath layers of pain or disconnection. My role is to help you reconnect to that inner strength so you can live and love with more clarity, compassion, and ease.
My path into this work began in education, where I spent years working closely with students and families. It was there I saw how much we all long to feel seen and supported — and how our emotional worlds shape every part of our lives. Over time, I found myself increasingly drawn to the deeper stories and tender places that lie beneath the surface. That pull led me to step fully into the world of therapy — a step that has brought me so much meaning and growth.
Today, I draw on both of these worlds — the practical, grounded skills I developed in education and the transformative tools I use as a therapist — to meet each person where they are. My work is rooted in Internal Family Systems (IFS), a gentle, insightful approach that helps you understand the different parts of yourself with curiosity and compassion. I also integrate somatic practices, mindfulness, and elements of DBT, knowing that real healing honors the mind, body, and soul.
Outside my practice, you’ll usually find me exploring nature trails with my husband and our children. We love the outdoors — it grounds me and brings a sense of calm and joy that I try to bring into my work as well. Healing isn’t just about working through pain; it’s about creating space for what nourishes you, too.

Hi, my name is Adina and I am passionate about the power of coaching to truly improve your life—both in the day-to-day struggles and in the big picture of living according to your values and vision. Most of us were never taught how to understand our feelings, how our physical and emotional systems interact, or how to express authentic emotion in a way that brings us closer to others. Without a roadmap to navigate uncomfortable feelings like fear, shame and anger, we develop protective instincts that eventually work against us, preventing us from feeling calm, whole and fully connected.
I am constantly growing and working on myself, and coaching has been a freeing, invaluable vehicle for shedding emotional patterns that were no longer helpful and for living a more productive, rewarding life. It isn’t easy to roll up your sleeves and face the work of self-exploration, but I have seen that the results are more than worth the investment.
I am devoted to supporting my clients through that effort: helping them achieve inner harmony, guiding them to more fulfilling relationships, and celebrating with them as they discover they can rise above whatever was weighing them down. I draw from the full array of my life experiences and trainings, never forget the value of humor and creativity, and sincerely respect each of my clients for who they are. Having worked with women of all ages for over 15 years, I understand that life sends all of us challenges, and I would consider it an honor to support you in whatever you’re facing.
When not involved in coaching and education, I enjoy running, painting, getting out in nature, and spending relaxed time with my husband and children.
Adina is a relationship and parenting coach. She has a bachelor’s from Yale, coaching certification from Connections, and years of training in relationships, trauma and personal growth.

Hi! My name is Daphna. I live in Israel and I am a coach and therapist. After I became a therapist, I chose to also train as a coach because of the impact coaching has had on my personal life. I find a lot of meaning in merging the strengths of both modalities. As a family systems therapist – the deep understanding of how our pasts interact with our present; and as a coach – helping clients discover their vision, goals, and internal skills needed to effectuate change. I feel passionate about my work and I love joining clients in deepening their self understanding and creating more meaningful relationships with themselves and others.
Working with clients is like a dance – and I do my best to meet a client where she is. Practically, that will mean integrating different tools, energies, and skills depending on what the client needs. I love incorporating body work, IFS language, and inner child work.
Every person has a story, and self-work has been a crucial part of my own journey. Sitting with a client in her story from a humble place of empathy and understanding of our humanness is an integral part of my work. It is an honor to join a client on her journey, and I look forward to joining you on yours.

Parenting stretches us like nothing else. It shows us who we are, who we want to be, and where we still struggle. It reveals both our greatest strengths and our hidden struggles. It’s a role that brings both joy and heartbreak, clarity and confusion. And most of all, it asks us to keep showing up.
This five-part series is a chance to pause and take a clear, compassionate look at how we parent.
We’ll ask honest questions like:
Each class offers space to learn, reflect, and gently shift. You’ll leave, not with more rules, but with more clarity—with a deeper sense of where you are, where you want to go, and a sense of how to get there.
