About
Hello, I’m Coach Black.
My purpose as your coach is to help you navigate the tough challenges life puts in your path—whether it’s stress, imposter syndrome, marital or relationship issues, career struggles, or feeling overwhelmed by life.
I’m “trauma tested” and have walked through many of these dark, lonely roads myself, so I understand how heavy it can feel. I also know there are real, practical solutions when you have the right support and are willing to do the work.
Drawing from life coaching, spiritual counseling, and health and wellness principles, I meet you exactly where you are so we can grow together, at your pace.
If you’re ready for honest support and real progress, let’s get to work.

Coach Black was definitely a blessing to our lives and our Relationship. From our first initial contact he showed a sincere interest in our relationship and helping us fix what we were unable to on our own. My fiancé and are now communicating and responding better to each other daily. The tools he has given us will, we will be able to use not only to strengthen our relationship but also help us in our life decision. I’m forever grateful for the experience. If you can’t tell already, I would highly recommend Coach Black if you and your partner ever come to that form in the road and need a little direction.

Thank you for the kind words. I cannot take credit for the hard work that you put in. Remember communication is very complicated and we make it more complicated when we don’t know how to do it. Continue to build off what you’ve learned. -Coach Black

I can to Vans Tru Fitness after a divorce. I had been married for over 10yrs and I was a mixture of emotions but mostly I was lost, hurt, and afraid. During our first session Coach Black said we would identify my why and I thought it would be a simple answer but with every answer I gave he again asked why because most times the answers we give to ourselves are real but they are not touching the true issue. For example, I said I was afraid to end up alone for the rest of my life but what it really came down to was that I did not feel that I was valuable enough for someone to consider dating me in the future. So session one identified that I needed to work on self esteem and focus on the things that I feel make me valuable as a person. Coach Black has been very helpful in identifying my whys and helping me formulate affirmations that I feel are very specific to me. I also appreciate the fact that I never felt judged. He never tells me what I want to hear but it is always what I need to hear, then it is on me to do the work and make the changes. If you are serious about finding peace in you life, growing personally, or growing professionally this is the place to do it.

It was life changing. The person that I was before was lost and I knew there were tings I wanted to do in my life but didn’t know how to get started. It was with Coach Black, that I found the strength to be authentically me and get back to my dreams and achieve them. He’s amazing to work with and really cares about my progress.

Coach Black is amazing! I have just started working with him for couples therapy and he goes above and beyond all of my expectations!
Going through couples therapy is nervous and stressful enough as is, but he has put both myself and my partner at ease. Working with him has reestablished my faith in counseling and I actually look forward to our meetings and the exercises!
I could not ask for a better coach. I love his methods and overall honesty/delivery! He makes this hard work easy.

I had the opportunity to work with Vans Tru Fitness and it was a wonderful experience. I was ecstatic with the service and attention I received. Van went above and beyond to respond and answer any questions I had. He provided me with a new insight on life with his life coaching in addition to assisting me with my weight loss.
