Marni's Quirk!

I used to pretend to be a HUGE American Idol fan because I have three kids, but now I’m out of the closet. I’ve been to every single live finale since the show premiered, and I NEVER miss an episode.

Where in the World?

The following are additional ways to connect with Marni:

Marni's BIO

My mission is to bring more love into the world. The truth is this: Therapy is fabulous, but many of my clients tell me that I have moved them forward in ways they have never experienced before—and all within just weeks of working with me. They are experiencing shifts that literally catapult them to NEW levels of happiness. My clients have found boyfriends, long-term love, increased peace and fulfillment, more optimism, a new sense of hope and the day-to-day support they never received in therapy. I am a woman of action. I kick butts. I don’t settle for the same old answers or excuses. And, I make people laugh through my sense of humor, support, care and ability to connect the dots for people in ways they never saw before.

Thank you, Marni, for truly making me feel alive again. I would not be able to do this without you. Your halo is something I see each week I come into your office. I have no doubt any man or woman who is lucky enough to be coached by you will experience the same life-altering changes I have. From the words of my angel: Be BRAVE; choose to be! Create the life you love! Thank you, Marni, for teaching me to think like that—and more importantly, to act like it.

Professional Experience

As the founder of Dating With Dignity and with more than 25 years of personal relationship and dating experience, I have dated, was married for 17 years, divorced, and then successfully dated again in the 21st century. In addition, I have received professional training in dating and relationship coaching as well as training in the Core Energy Coaching Process from the Institute of Professional Excellence in Coaching (IPEC). I am also trained as a Facilitator and Mentor Trainer by the Hoffman Institute, a world-renowned leader in personal development.

Academic History

I have a Masters in Education, am certified as a Life Coach by the International Coaching Federation, and am also a Master Practitioner at administering an Energy Assessment—“The D-Factor”—which helps clients pinpoint exactly why they are or are not date-able and what types of messages they are unconsciously broadcasting to men based on their thoughts, feelings, actions and attitudes.
