About
My graduate level degrees and post-graduate training have equipped me for counseling and coaching. My experience takes it to another level. My sessions with my clients are very real, and you'll find me to be genuine and easy to talk to. The most important thing to know is you can expect results. The feedback from my clients speak for themselves.

Not everyone is in need of counseling, but everyone benefits from coaching. I am a Master Life Coach as well as a Counselor.
My REAL Living Method coaching program is providing life-changing results for my clients. REAL Living Method (RLM) is a 6-week coaching program that is helpful with many life issues. RLM especially helps you replace self-doubt and anxiety with confidence and joy so you can have the relationships, career, and life of your dreams.
I've been passionate about personal growth for 30 years, starting with my own life, focused on mindfulness and self-development. And in 2004 after a brief health crisis, which I refer to as my darkest hour, I returned to academia to earn a degree to equip me to help others.
I created the REAL Living Method in 2017 after having curated some of the most effective life strategies that have helped me achieve personal levels of growth and success that surpassed my expectations. When I began sharing these strategies with others, they reported these techniques helped them transform their lives. Basically, I offer the best techniques that have been battle-tested by me and my clients...for years. This led me to create the REAL Living Method, based on my life's work. Like my clients, you too can expect life-changing results. GeriCarlson.com
It's incredibly rewarding to help people through challenging life issues and conflict. The greatest take-away is my clients learn tools to help them through future struggles as well as conquering their current issue. This is my life work, and I'm quite passionate about it!

I do not accept insurance. All clients are self-pay. Contact Geri to inquire about the REAL Living Method, a 6-week coaching program. RLM is typically paid in full at the onset of services; or you may make two payments (the second payment is auto-pay at time of session #3 of the 6-week coaching program, REAL Living Method).
More info about fees can be found on my website. (Fees are competitive - you won't pay hundreds of dollars per session as with others with my credentials and experience.)
How did you get started in this business?
I've been passionate about personal growth for 30 years, focused on mindfulness and self-development, and living a life without unnecessary drama and chaos. My ongoing mission also turned into my profession after a brief health crisis in 2004, which I refer to as my darkest hour; I returned to academia to earn a degree to equip me to professionally help others. I've helped thousands of individuals grow through life, regardless of their circumstances.
In 2017, I created the REAL Living Method. I have curated some of the most effective life strategies that have helped me achieve levels of growth and success that surpassed my expectations. When I began sharing these strategies with others, they reported these techniques helped them transform their lives. This led me to create the REAL Living Method, based on my life's work. I'm grateful for the life-changing results!

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a pro in your area of expertise?
I recommend taking the necessary time to locate a professional with ample training and experience. My credentials and experience may be what clients are first drawn to, but the results are why they stay and return whenever they are in need of services again in the future. I build a relationship with my clients and genuinely care about them, and they certainly know it.
What questions should customers think through before talking to pros about their needs?
What do their clients say about them? Do they provide testimonials? (Check out my website home page: "What Are My Clients Saying...") Is this professional a good match for me? Is this someone with whom I can trust and be vulnerable? Do I respect this counselor/coach? Will they tell me only what I want to hear, or will they care enough to be honest with me and provide help? Do they have extensive training and experience?
