​             Today, there are many ways to write a book on a nonfiction subject that you are passionate about. Below I provide some examples of the different types of nonfiction I enjoy reading and am interested in coaching.
     As a Psychologist who has worked with adults and children as well as families, teachers, and schools; I specialize in books related to personal stories/memoir, personal growth, mental health issues, education, and children’s literature.


​Please note that I don’t coach business or motivational books.
