More about Alicia
I get it can be hard …
I understand that the struggle of managing life and family and work is real.
With four kids and a 24 year relationship, I know that married life is not always easy. I also know when a relationship has run its course and to help you to navigate that as I had to personally in my own life.
But I also know how amazing it is when you're a strong team working together and loving the life that you're creating with each other.
Life is fast paced and I understand how easily we can lose connection because of the busyness of life.
I am excited to draw on my 23 plus years of working with people to find solutions for communication issues in the workplace to help people in their personal relationships.
Often when mediating issues between employees, I notice that the presenting relationship issues feel similar to issues that can appear in personal relationships. There are often communication issues and conflicts arise over a lack of role clarity and confusion about expectations and a lack of shared goals and visions. I have been able to help conflicted working relationships move forward productively and I am excited to be using these skills to help couples.
