What people are saying about Skills for Intentional Living:
Relationship
"I began working with Alix at a time when my marriage was suffering. My wife and I were polarized around how to parent my daughter from my first marriage. Also, among other things, I was out of touch with what it was costing our relationship that my wife could not count on me to deliver on my word. Alix's coaching was a God send. She has an almost magical ability to uncover the unexpressed (to ourselves, much less the other) drivers that are at work beneath the surface. With Alix's help, my wife and I were able to communicate much more fully than ever before. We learned how to make agreements that are sustainable because they arise from a clear understanding of what we each need and want. Currently, I am working through a career transition and I have again turned to Alix for coaching. Her input is both inspiring and practical. As I recreate my vision for my career, she is helping me to clarify what I want, identify limiting beliefs, and craft short and long term action plans that are producing results. The value that I am receiving is extraordinary."Software Systems Architect
"Hi Alix. Things are going well, not perfect but overall very good at school and home. I just wanted to let you know that you have improved our lives soooo much. I have been to 3 psychologists in the past years with Anthony, and you are the 4th attempt for help. You are the only one that has made a difference. Before we met, my life was total chaos. Since we have been meeting with you, I have become aware of how much power I have to change my life and set boundaries, (people, environment, etc.) in order to have a more peaceful life. As a mother, I have learned to create boundaries and a relationship so that Anthony and I will respect each other, not because we have to, but because we want to, out of love for each other. But I have learned to live in the present and not in the past, to let go and see what I can do to make today better. Oh, and that we are what we eat! Thank you so much!"

"After having gone to a number of counselors with very little short term and no long term results, I truly believed our family was just "stuck" and could not change. The same issues had been reoccurring time after time for fourteen years.
At the time we were all ready to just give up, we discovered Alix and after 15 minutes, I knew that she had a different and very gifted approach. The sessions were absolutely amazing! All three of us loved going to her - each of us felt heard and understood. We continued to get concrete feedback and guidance in how we communicated with each other.
Alix helped us get to the root causes of our difficulties and to figure out how to quickly change the very entrenched patterns in our family life. In a six month period, I can honestly say that our family is on a totally different plane. The love and joy has been uncovered and all three of us, most of the time, feel at peace with each other. Most importantly, she taught us how to recover from "relapses" into our old patterns. I would not take a million dollars for what we experienced in our family sessions.

"Thanks so much for your wonderful help with my daughter. I am so excited about the possibilities we are creating in our lives."I have been putting these new tools into practice. It feels so good and I feel as if I have the momentum. I am filling my mind with constructive thoughts and noticing how I am reacting and perceiving things and others through new eyes, compared to how I saw things before we began our process.
"Thank you for this lasting gift!"
Mother
"After having personally experienced extremely valuable help from Alix, I began to recommend her. In my role as a school guidance counselor, parents would ask for recommendations to work with their rising teenagers outside of the school system. I would receive immediate feedback thanking me for the recommendation. They would express their appreciation of finally having someone who could relate to the parent as well as the child. In most cases, behavior improved immediately and grades improved over a period of time. Alix was very skilled at getting everyone involved to examine how they contributed to the problem vs. constantly blaming the other person. Teachers were constantly amazed at the change they observed in the student's performance and attitude."

"I have been working with Alix on a regular basis for 2 years. She has become a resource for various areas of my life as I have felt challenged with numerous responsibilities. We started working together to work on getting my new business started. As we started working together we realized that there were some issues in my personal life involving my children and my marriage that would be affecting my business. Alix has been a tremendous asset to me both personally and professionally. She has worked with me, my husband and both of my daughters through different issues. This relationship has now expanded, whereby she coaches me and my business associates to create organization and focus, in order to grow the business. At this time my time with Alix is divided between working with my business associates in a weekly staff meeting and personal sessions. The personal sessions are spent reinforcing the awesome work we have been doing in getting me in a more confident place in my parenting and dealing with all of the personal relationships and challenges that I face on a daily basis."In short Alix von Cramon has been a Godsend to me and I treasure the work we do together. My life, my family and everyone who comes in contact with me has been blessed by my association with her."
