    He has helped the communication that was lacking in our 18-year relationship. If you are motivated to improve, Alan shares the tools you need to live happier, more connected lives together.

We are glad to have found him as a coach and plan to continue meeting with him to keep us focused on our goals as a couple.”

    My husband and I were months away from saying ‘I do.’ We met with Alan and he gave us the reality of a marriage. It was just what we needed. We talked about everything that people are afraid to talk about. I greatly appreciate who he is and how he has helped us in our life.
