Mark's Training

My work is above all else is human. It's about helping clients clarify their intentions, uncover hidden possibilities, and dissolve blocks. I liberally use a range of innovative approaches to unleash the potential that clients seek to express. 

The work relies heavily on Internal Family Systems (IFS), and sometimes on Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP).  These are both inward-looking tools that help clients uncover and connect to who they are at their core while enabling them to bring their own good sense, wisdom, and strength to bear in moving past the obstacles that had held them back.  

Enabling people to realize their own potential is a passion for me, and led me to over fourteen hundred hours of formal classroom and workshop instruction in the last eleven years. That includes in-depth training in Internal Family Systems from the Center for Self Leadership; I'm a "Certified IFS Practitioner," have also functioned as a program assistant to help others learn IFS, and am a supervisor to help other coaches get certified.  Additionally, I have as basic-, master-, and post-master level practitioner certifications in Neuro-Linguistic Programming from the NLP Center of NY where I've been a training assistant as well. I also hold basic and advanced certifications in Ericksonian Hypnosis from that institution.  In addition, I've been certified to offer Kendall Summerhawk's Money Archetype tool, have completed Level 1 and Level 2 training in EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), and am certified as an Akashic Records Consultant (an intuitive discipline).

Mark's Experience

Mark earned a BS in electrical engineering and computer science from M.I.T. and an MBA from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.

In his spare time, Mark enjoys connecting with friends and family — cooking, dancing and through yoga and meditation. He enjoys reading and movies, but not television. He also loves expressing his whimsy and playfulness through photography and pottery--you can see those at whim-see.net.
