About me
Don't ask me about me, ask my clients. But just so you know, I didn't fall out of a tree yesterday, my background includes a teaching degree, a psychology Masters degree, plus a coaching certification endorsed by the International Coaching Federation, and a Hypnosis certification.
What you'll get at Cedar Light (Excerpts from clients)
EMPATHY - "Judy is always empathetic ( most important quality of all imo) to your situation. I feel she truly seeks to understand you and walk with you through the vicissitudes of life." Stephen B
INDUSTRY LEADER - "A true expert of what she does as well as a life time learner, bringing new tactics to better help you with your journey." Stephen B
INSIGHT - "She provided valuable insight and guided me to prioritize the issues to focus on the one thing that would make the biggest difference in my life."Dr. Maurie Sutton
HYPNOSIS - "She hypnotized me with her soothing voice and words to give me inner strength. I had never felt so comfortable.

HOW I LIKE TO COACH
I help you discover who you really are inside. I help you find your inner light switch which you can learn to turn on and up whenever you need it. This switch is what accesses your personal power. Your confidence and success is based on your ability to tap into your personal power. We all have a spark, and we all have the ability to reach our full potential, finding fulfillment in every area of our lives. I help you find solace, serenity and solutions. In a warm, non-judgmental environment, you will realize that what I do is completely different to other therapists and coaches. As one of my client's says, "I have seen MANY family counselors, therapists, coaches in the last 4 decades and no one holds a candle to Judi. In an hour and a half she nailed my life struggles when it comes to my relationships with my significant other and why I am ambivalent and unable to truly be a partner to something that occurred in my childhood."

PROFESSIONAL AND LIFE EXPERIENCE
I was born in Zimbabwe, my childhood experiences included living in Israel and in South Africa during the backdrop of Apartheid. I completed a Bachelor Degree in Education. I subsequently got married and had 4 kids in two pregnancies - first a singleton boy and subsequently, triplet girls. I continued juggling my role as mother and Kindergarden teacher in South Africa. In 2008, I moved to the US. After working as a pre-school teacher for 3 years, I decided to complete a Masters Program in Psychology Counseling. I began working for various community agencies as a Marriage and Family Therapist intern. Shortly after this, my 17 year old daughter was diagnosed with cancer. Devastated to discover that my daughter had an aggressive and rare form of cancer in her kidney, I was forced to give up my work to take care of my daughter in a year-long treatment. That experience taught me a lot about rising above the storm and how to control my emotions in the face of adversity. After my daughter's remission, I became certified as a Life Coach and a hypnotherapist. I found the combination of the teachings of psychology, the goal oriented methods of Life Coaching and the use of the sub-conscious in Hypnotherapy enabled me to create lasting changes for my clients. I live in California where I aim to continue to inspire my clients in the best way I can. I am grateful for my life experiences and embrace them as blessings in my life journey.
