Testimonials

In 2018 I wrote to a handful of students and clients to ask for feedback about our work together.
I was blown away by what I received! 
Heartfelt and generous endorsements about the work we've done together poured in.

This is my life's work and my passion, and I'm so touched
by these reflections of my value as a teacher, mentor and coach.

Help with Personal Growth

"Elle is a practitioner, coach, teacher, mentor, guide, space holder, energy worker and life changer. I credit our work together with the profound healing I've been able to cultivate in my life. Through our connection I have come to understand the difference between feeling vs fixing and to know myself as capable of transcending the limits of where I come from to live the life I love. I am eternally grateful for the wisdom Elle has integrated so wholeheartedly and her unique style of sharing it. Elle is a gift to her clients and students; she is the real deal."      MARY WELCH, HEALING PRACTITIONER



“I have a thing about coaches. Everyone is calling themselves a coach these days – life coaching, job coaching, etc.  My buddy told me that Elle was the real thing, helping him with heavy stuff in his life.  I had just received my cancer diagnosis, and I needed help desperately. I couldn’t sleep and I was having trouble with work and generally dealing with fear.
 
Because of the high praise of my friend, I called Elle and I tried an intro session with her. I felt super relieved right away, like I had somewhere to turn to get understanding and a reality check. Elle has helped me ever since as I deal with the VA medical system, my treatment and everyone else’s reactions.  I’m so glad I found this (yes!) tremendous coach!!”
      BILL Z, DISABLED VET




 "Elle is a deeply insightful and empathetic instructor who has helped me to ground myself in my body and my emotions. Through our work, I’ve been able to better understand my reality and personal patterns and to define which of these patterns are useful and which I can leave behind for a healthier self and future.

 One thing I love about our practice is Elle’s ability to fluctuate seamlessly between focusing on the big picture and seemingly minute experiences. We never get too lost in the day to day stories because we always return to the present moment - which is a skill I’m now able to carry with me and implement in my daily life. Our work is emotional and spiritual yet always practical."

Help with Relationships


"It’s hard to find a practitioner that works for both partners in a relationship. Elle Rosenthal is a true master! My wife and I learned how to “tolerate the discomfort” created by our old baggage and our projections on each other, long enough to really hear and see the other partner. She helped us figure out what she calls our “conundrum,” the place where each of our sensitivities and wounds collide into each other to create our repeated crises.  Elle helped us understand our dynamic as a couple, and to come to kindness about who and how we are together. Now we have the life skills to solve problems together in real time. And we know we can always get a refresher when something new or insurmountable comes up. Marta and I are so grateful!"          JULIA O, OVERWORKED DOC, DEVOTED WIFE



"Every time I’ve gone for relationship counseling, I felt blamed for being a man. Like it’s always my fault for being a dumb Neanderthal and that my wife is the insightful and sensitive flower.  Until I met Elle. She really listens to me and has taught me to value my own word and my experience. I’ve taken this to heart and I’m not cowering in political correctness. And what a surprise, my wife and I are communicating more frankly and honestly. That’s been half the battle. We’re not done yet. There’s more work together with Elle to come and I’m pretty excited."       HENRY P, CHIEF FINANCE OFFICER



Help with Work

"I was in a nightmare of a work situation where I felt personally threatened and attacked, and my integrity challenged.  I couldn’t have gotten through this period of my career without Elle’s help in seeing myself clearly, and her coaching/mentoring around dealing with this difficult situation.  She is the best! "            ANONYMOUS, FINANCIAL SERVICES REGULATOR

 

"The OHSU Foundation offered me an opportunity for career coaching and presented a few different options.  After engaging with Elle, it was clear I made the right choice.  Elle is a personable, knowledgeable and professional career coach that has been able to help me clearly identify areas of opportunity for me to create positive chance in my position.  After working with Elle for just a few weeks, I felt we connected, and she helped me to form clarity around what I needed to work on in my career.  Her methods in helping me to accomplish my goals are purposeful and enlightening.  Since connecting with Elle, I have received comments from my coworkers that they have seen a notable and positive difference in my presentations; I feel this would have not happened without Elle's help!  I recommend Elle to anyone looking for an insightful career coaching experience!"               MELISSA BERRETT, IT DIRECTOR,  OHSU Foundation 2015
 
 

"I highly recommend Elle Rosenthal as a professional coach! She is easy to work with and very flexible.  Elle’s approach and style have been well received and she delivers results."                          JOY MCCAMMON, HUMAN RESOURCES OHSU 2015
 


"In 2016 I was starting a new business, trying to pay off significant debt, and had just begun an extra-marital affair. What a mess!  Elle’s non-judgmental approach was super effective in helping me come to terms with the choices I was making, and why I was making them. Instead of what she calls “fixing,” we took a deep dive into what I was really feeling and acting out.
 
While I was referred to Elle for help with my business, her incredible life experience and expertise quickly expanded our work. She never shied away from calling out all my “elephants in the room,” and I never felt so safe to face the truth. And, I did create a kick-ass business!!
 
If you have a chance to work with this remarkable woman, GO FOR IT!
"                    ANONYMOUS, ENTREPRENEUR 2016 - present





Help in Groups

Picture
"Elle, it was nice to reflect on the work you did for Mother Earth School, you gave so generously of your time! Thank you. I am happy to offer this testimonial:  Elle goes beyond applying standard templates or practices. She took the time to thoroughly understand the uniqueness of our organizational dynamics, asking key questions and interviewing members of our staff before making recommendations. We were able to grow not just by refining our decision-making structures but through having a deeper understanding of the dynamics at play within our organization which helped us to avoid future pitfalls as well. I hope your new endeavors continue to unfold beautifully!"                     APRIL BLAIR, CO-FOUNDER MOTHER EARTH SCHOOL



"Elle, I learned more in re-framing my company's Organizational Chart than I imagined possible! You helped my team to come up with a reorg that was smart and real. Before you came into our management team process, we were stuck in old and punishing thinking. You sort of jerked us out of our corporate stupor (you call this consensual thinking, I believe!). Now that I've said this, you'll have to attribute this quote as anonymous!! But it's really important that any company looking for anything from a minor update to a major sea change knows that you have the skills and the vision to facilitate real insight and healing within corporate cultures."                                                                                  ANONYMOUS, CORPORATE CLIENT 2017


Practitioner Training

Picture
"Elle is a treasure in my life! I became her client and student over ten years ago. Since then she has helped me through painful experiences, and deep transitions in my life -- including training me as a practitioner!  I honestly don’t know where or how I would be today without her.  Due to her coaching and mentoring, my life navigating skills are rich, applicable and enduring. Elle is deep, engaging, intuitive, sharp, compassionate and thorough in her style and approach. I have never felt more held or heard by another human being in my life.

Today I support others to navigate their own path of healing and understand. Elle, I love you and I am so grateful for your being."                                                                             
IRIS RIVERA, SHAMANIC PRACTITIONER, CERTIFIED MINDFULNESS TEACHER, LIFE COACH 




"Elle, I think I may be the first person you trained to become a practitioner!? Did you know that I have since completed a PhD?  I would love to share that you changed my life and opened this path for me. Our professional training sessions were rigorous and challenging. Your mastery in sharing insightful thinking allowed me to learn how to see more clearly -- both for myself and my future clients. You have the most creative analytical mind I have met. You modeled how I could think outside the box to help my patients, and at the same time hold them with love and without judgment. The private mentoring model allowed you to tailor my training so I could learn very deeply, not held back by what you call "consensual" thinking.

I will be forever grateful that I found you, and that you agreed to train me!"                                 MALAYA G., PSYCHOTHERAPIST
