Positive psychology coaching is a scientific approach that leverages the latest research in human behavior and wellbeing.

Imagine a wellbeing scale from -10 to +10, with 0 as neutral. While clinical psychology moves individuals from negative to neutral, positive psychology moves individuals from good (+1) to great (+10) by understanding what enables us to thrive — individually and collectively.

Leslie’s positive psychology coaching is a systems-based approach, helping you close the self-awareness gap, align your actions with your intentions, and elevate your impact in the interconnected systems you steward.

Whole-Person

Whole-System

My coaching provides a high-trust, expertly guided partnership — distinct from therapy, mentorship, and executive coaching — where leaders can openly explore their most vulnerable challenges. Here, growth isn’t measured by what you achieve, but by how you expand your perspective, influence, and sense of responsibility across the systems you inhabit. This approach builds self-aware leaders equipped to meet business demands, and human realities while contributing to collective flourishing.

  • The investment I made in Leslie was impactful before, during, and after the engagement. The deep exploratory phase with Leslie surfaced blind spots I had not thought to consider in my approach. I cannot overstate this value. I value Leslie’s work and her value impact on my personal and professional development. For me, driving results in a high-tech start-up, and at a very personal level, leaving a trail of healthy, whole employees is mission critical. Leslie helped me deliver on these two metrics. I highly recommend Leslie. Hire her. She’s game changing.

  • Leslie has the innate ability to connect with her clients in the personalized ways they need: to see their strengths and challenges, help them see where they’re stuck, open their mind to new ways of thinking, and guide them to generate successful solutions. Specifically, I’ve learned a tremendous amount of concrete, context-driven communication skills in my work with Leslie. You know when you take a workshop and discover all the things wrong with how you communicate, and then ask, “now what?” Leslie’s work is the “now what” that takes you from knowing to changing. If you’re seeking deep, meaningful personal development in a professional context, with a guide who combines science and practical application, I highly recommend working with Leslie. If you feel stuck or are asking “what now?”, I highly recommend working with Leslie. If you’re ready to do the hard work, I highly recommend working with Leslie. I think you get it. I highly recommend working with Leslie.

  • Executive coaching with Leslie transformed my approach to business. Throughout our sessions, Leslie challenged me to think critically about my leadership style and provided valuable insights that helped me grow as a leader. Her approach was both supportive and demanding, pushing me to see biases while never losing sight of the business goals. I made specific improvements in my leadership skills to drive real, meaningful change within my organization. I highly recommend Leslie to any executive looking to take their leadership and their leadership bench to the next level.
