Transformational Coaching
Unlock your potential and embrace your journey with Phil the Change.
Whether you're feeling stuck, seeking clarity, building a new chapter, or simply aiming for the best version of yourself - you're in the right place. Coaching is a powerful process that creates space for change, breakthrough, and momentum. It's not about fixing you (you're not broken). It's about unlocking the next level of who you are and what you're here to do.
In my coaching relationship, you can expect:
A judgment-free, confidential space
Deep listening and powerful questions
Accountability with grace
Laughter, insight, and forward motion
Our work together is built on trust, partnership, and action. You bring the raw materials of your life; I bring the tools to help you craft them into something extraordinary. Let's begin this journey with courage and clarity. Change doesn't have to be chaotic-it can be strategic. And together, we'll make it meaningful.
I am a uniquely well-rounded life coach whose approach integrates behavioral science, leadership, and visual storytelling. With over 20 years of experience spanning psychology, healthcare, military service, and film production, I bring a multidimensional perspective to coaching that empowers clients to reframe their lives, find clarity, and take bold action toward their goals.
PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY
I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology and a Master's Degree in Healthcare Administration, along with current enrollment in the Life Coach Certification Program at Case Western Reserve University. I'm also a Certified Life Coach through Udemy and have spent the last two years in private practice helping individuals navigate personal development, life transitions, and mental wellness.
My foundational experience includes 10 years in the U.S. Army as a Behavioral Science Specialist, two years as a Mental Health Case Manager, and five years as a Healthcare Administrator. This clinical and administrative depth enables me to coach with insight, empathy, and systems-level thinking. I also served as a mentor in Cleveland State University's Student Mentoring Program...l helped students navigate academic and personal development with clarity and purpose.
In addition to my clinical and coaching background, I'm an award-winning filmmaker with more than 15 years of experience in film production. My visual storytelling skills enhance my coaching work by helping clients "see" their narratives differently-an essential part of mindset shifts and personal growth. I have produced over 250 video projects, including feature films, music videos, commercials, and special events.
My accolades include:
Best Picture - Pan-African Film Festival
Technical Excellence in Filmmaking - Roxbury Film Festival
Critic's Pick - The New York Times
My filmmaking background amplifies my coaching by fostering creativity, empathy, and the ability to guide clients in reframing their life story-both metaphorically and practically. Whether working with professionals, students, or creatives, my coaching style is engaging, insightful, and action-oriented.
