Marji Zintz

I specialize in parent coaching, maintaining a private practice in Olivebridge, New York, located in the Catskill Mountains (however, using the telephone and the Internet, I work with parents all over the globe).

A mom and a retired La Leche League Leader, I have been helping parents since 1996, working with a broad spectrum of parents whose kids range in age from brand-new to teen-aged and older. In addition to being a professional parent whisperer and life coach, I am also a professional performing musician and have presented nationally, speaking on the topics of parenting, home education, and music.

Using a collaborative, solution-focused approach, I provide support and practical feedback to help clients effectively address a variety of parenting challenges, working together with clients to assess what's in their parenting tool kit, how well these tools are working, discard the ones that haven't been working so well, and replace them with effective tools that bring joy and fulfillment to the sometimes hairy job of parenting.

I integrate coaching techniques and helpful assignments (when they seem right) to offer a highly personalized program tailored to my clients and their particular concerns and issues. With compassion and understanding, I work with my clients to help build on their strengths and attain the personal growth they are committed to achieving.
