What They’re Saying

  • Karen Johnson-Brennan

    ❝ Gelena Gorelik is a fantastic life coach for wellness. I was personally suffering from mild to moderate depression due to life events of being the sole care taker of a spouse with Alzheimer’s Dementia. She listens to what you have to say and then gives suggestions for how to turn negative, unhelpful or sad ideas around to develop a more positive, loving attitude. She actually gives you “homework” assignments between sessions so that you can be proactive instead of reactive in your thinking and behavior. It does work, and I benefited greatly from her interventions. I am a professor in health care and know the value of her help. She is generous of her time and expertise. ❞

    ❝ I recently contacted Gelena because I was having many difficulties with many parts of my life. I found myself in the worst shape that I have ever experienced. I was physically, mentally and financially in a very dark place. I knew what I needed to do to get out of this position but just couldn’t put the pieces together. I contacted Gelena and asked for her guidance. Thankfully enough, she was very quick to respond. After many phone consults with her, I found myself back on the path I needed to be. Gelena turned what seemed to be a complicated time in my life into plain sense! I never thought that I would ask help from a life coach, but sometimes you need someone else’ eyes and expertise to guide you. When you first meet Gelena, you will feel her confidence and positive energy right away! I cant recommend her enough. ❞

    ❝ I had a pleasure of having Ms. Gelena in my life for one and a half years. During that time with her I learned things that continue to have an impact in my life. She was always knowledgeable and always willing to find time to answer any questions I had and explain things in detail to me. She had a way of speaking that made me feel comfortable no matter what the topic was. I knew I could trust her with any concerns I had. By listening to her guidance I was able to learn how to effectively manage my time, prioritize and focus to complete my goals, excel in my educational pursuits, and grow in my relationships with others. I will never forget Ms. Gelena. ❞

    ❝ I would like to thank Gelena for her wonderful guidance. My life has never been the same because of what I learned from her. What she brings as a guide and coach is incredible and life-altering. She is a true leader than not only leads, but helps others to become leaders as well. ❞

  • Karen T. Smith

    ❝ I don’t know what I would have done without Gelena this past year. Her invaluable combination of strong leadership and unfailing compassion gave me the strength and confidence needed to deal with the loss of a loved one and continue to strive to become a better educator that I am today. ❞

  • MeeChung Kim

    ❝ I appreciated how well Gelena’s unique style reduced very complex concepts to simple terms to meet my needs. Gelena not only teaches the concepts, she also listens with empathy and understanding. If you want to learn effective ways to foster health and relationships, I cannot recommend her highly enough! ❞

  • Vanessa Valerio

    ❝ Words are not enough to express my gratitude to one of the best mentors I have come across. I owe her a part of who I am today. She has a way in her that motivates others. I will be forever grateful.❞

  • Libby Aguayo

    ❝ Ms. Gelena was my instructor before. She was a phenomenal teacher. She made sure we understood the concepts and went above and beyond for her students. Her explanations were clear as water. She made our experience fun, and most of all, she believed in our potential. ❞

  • Patricia Pekker
    Calistoga

    ❝ Gelena is full of kindness and generosity. She is extremely well organized and unique in her approach. She builds relationships with clients and colleagues, while inspiring them to be better and happier. I don’t know anyone from our group who was not happy with Gelena. ❞
