Life and Relationship Coaching near Tampa Bay, FL

Glenn is extraordinarily gifted and makes a difference in each client he works with at CNI. I have been blessed to be his partner for several years and during that time he guided me through the shattering and grief of the death of my husband. Being by his side, I witness the extraordinary differences he makes in people’s lives. If you are willing to do the work, he is the guide to help you transform your life.

Glenn has been single handedly the most impactful person I have ever worked with and cannot say enough good things about what he does. Every aspect of my life has changed from a perception standpoint and his “no sugarcoating” approach taught me a lot about myself and how most of my issues could be solved with just a shift in utilizing his tactics to break the cycle of repetitive patterns that would drag me down. I am so grateful for him and he is truly a miracle worker of sorts if you take his course serious and DO THE WORK! Thank you Glenn for showing me a brighter, more enjoyable side of life and helping me break free from traumas that were hindering my growth.

Glenn changed my life by cleaning my internal lens of perception. The self awareness I have achieved as a result of my time with Glen far exceeds anything prior to working with him. My quieter mind helps me better navigate life every second of the day. Thank you Glenn.

I reached out to Glenn after a series of events in my life left me feeling unsettled, vulnerable, and needing change. I got to a point where I thought that putting in the work to make positive changes in my life would be less painful than doing nothing and continuing on as things had been. I realized that the only thing I had control of was myself, and if my life was going to improve then I would have to be the one to make the improvements. Glenn‘s methods helped me to better understand myself. I began to understand where I developed certain limiting ideas of myself, of relationships, and how I entered into repeating patterns that consistently lead to similar outcomes. I learned how I would project past painful experiences onto my present life which would leave me jumping to judgments and conclusions rather than experiencing things as they are in the moment. By leading with defense mechanisms I wasn’t giving anyone or anything the opportunity to be more than the limited expectation I had of it. Since working with Glenn I’ve gotten more in touch with both my emotions and the physical sensations in my body that alert me when a mental shift is taking place. By learning to place myself as the cause in my life, rather than the effect, I’ve been able to consciously shift my thoughts and intervene in my otherwise automatic behavior patterns. Glenn’s approach helped me to learn the tools and tips I need to manage my response when “shift happens.” Now not a day goes by where I don’t think about and use some of the insights gained from Glenn, including that even with regular work we’re all still subject to the 80/20 rule; if you get it right 80% of the time then you’re doing good. Thanks to my time with Glenn and my motivation to do the work I’m now much closer to that 80% mark and more often welcome the opportunities I have to learn, grow, and build more meaningful relationships with myself and others. It takes work (I’m still a work in progress), and the work really begins when you walk out the door of Glenn‘s office, but it is work that will pay off in the form of a better life.

Glenn operates in the strongest kind of Compassion: no-nonsense, sets firm boundaries, holds accountability, and reflects back all Truth. When one is truly ready, Glenn’s masterful guidance facilitates the necessary changes to re-activate one's own innate abilities to self-empower and self-heal.

Glenn is a very amazing person. He will give you a reality check in a heartbeat, sometimes individuals in situations aren't ready for the truth. Glenn teaches you how to be an empowered stable individual, and sometimes the chips fall as they may when it comes to that. It is up to you the individual to take on the responsibility for your own mental and spiritual health, Glenn is probably the best person I've ever met to help guide you with that, but it's on you. If you're willing to accept his information and (apply it) you will be a changed individual. If you don't then you won't. A lot of people expect a marriage counselor to guide you through all your issues and take you by the hand, Glenn does not at least not the way you think, he has each individual look at themselves take the truth for what it is, if you become a understanding individual intern you will become a better couple. His principles are spot-on and yes it sucks to be called out trust me, but it was what I needed when I needed it. Understand something, if one of you in your marriage chooses to become a changed person through his teachings and the other one doesn't, well it is what it is. For me as a person Glenn helped give me the information and the tools to be a better person, and a better communicator completely. Glenn if you read this I can't say it enough, I appreciate you brother thank you for everything that you've done. Joel.

Very grateful for the impactful guidance Glenn gave in my journey to heal!

Glenn is a genius. If you are willing to put in the work, he can help you make SO much progress towards becoming the mentally healthy and happy person you want to be. I put his teachings into practice every single day and I am a better person for it. I cannot recommend Glenn enough. The world would be a much better place if everyone spent some time with Glenn.

I literally cannot fit everything good I have to say about Glenn into this review. It says I've exceeded the character limit. My testimonial is on his actual page though. I highly recommend Glenn, no matter what you're dealing with in life. Whether its a simple mental health check up or, like I was, you're going through some real dark places in life, Glenn has the knowledge, tools, and the ability to help you.

Glenn’s coaching techniques have made me a happy spouse! My husband had been dealing with difficult circumstances and we seemed to be in a hopeless place of despair and unhappiness. A friend of mine highly recommended working with Glenn. We went to his webpage and read about his program but were unfamiliar with the idea of “life coaching” or his credentials. We decided to move forward only because of the testimonial of my friend, and I am so thankful we did. Almost immediately after my husband began working with Glenn, I noticed a difference. Glenn was able to help my husband see the limitless opportunities open to him by changing his perspective when encountering conflict. He was able to identify the things that trigger a negative response and understand why they were triggers. Glenn has created an environment where his clients are 100% safe to explore thoughts and ideas. Glenn’s non-judging approach breaks down the false barriers built since childhood and opens the possibility of life in a new, healthy reality. He worked with both of us teaching his Mindful Discussion Techniques (MDT) and how to de-fuse a situation. The journey has given me a better understanding of myself, my husband and people in general. I do not know where we would be if we had not met Glenn, so I cannot recommend him more highly.

What an incredible journey. It is true what they say- the only way to get to a peaceful place is to process EVERYTHING. The pain of really feeling your feelings is so worth it. Facing truths and making peace with what was. Thank you Glenn for accompanying me through this! Wish I found you years ago.

I went to see Glenn because I was having a hard time. I wasn't quite sure how to pin point what was going on but I knew there were behaviors and patterns that I wanted to get rid of. Glenn helped me understand where these patterns started, how I developed them, why I held on to them and then he gave me the tools to set me free of them. I have been to a therapist before and this experience was far different from that. Glenn doesn't just listen and help you work through a problem, only to be met with the same problem months or years down the road at another rough patch. He focuses on helping you change, to become a better person, the person you seek to be. His goal is transformation and I am so thankful I found Glenn. I am doing better than ever. I am so much closer to being the person I want to be - the wife, daughter, sister, friend, coworker, employee that I know I can be. Because of what he taught me I feel I have control over my reactions and how I live my life. My habits no longer have control over me. It is so freeing! Thank you so much, Glenn- I could never repay you!!

I sought out the help of Glenn because I was repeating the same negative behavior patterns and it was affecting not just me but my marriage and my children. I needed to dive deep and explore myself in a way that standard counseling had not helped me before. Glenn will give you the tools you need to help yourself IF you are willing to open yourself to his techniques and do the necessary work. Glenn is the reason I am able to move forward with a clear understanding of what I need for myself. If you are on this page wondering if his technique is right for you and if he is the person you need to see --it is, he is amazing to work with! Trust your gut, do the work, and live in a much happier state of mind. I cannot recommend Glenn enough! I am grateful for him and the methods he has taught me.

Contrary to many of his clients, I actually found Glenn when in need of professional development. Together we developed a vision of what my future would look like and then worked hard to put thoughts into actions. Glenn is one of those people who pushes you to become the best you can be, but always in a supportive way. Because of his incredible ability to understand others and their behaviors, he is able to help people translate feelings into tangible realities. Glenn is amazing and I am so grateful for his guidance!

A friend of mine recommended working with a life coach that deeply impacted her. As I was working through a tough transition phase in my life, Glenn Cohen was introduced to me. I have experienced many different types of "therapies" but nothing compares to my time working with Glenn. I learned that my healing process doesn't just have to do with what was happening in my life right now or the obvious things that pop into my consciousness. Through Glenn's coaching, I was able to look at the things beneath the surface that were the root of my pain so I am now able to move forward to live in my true authentic self. His approach is powerful yet gentle. The joy and freedom I now feel is something I have never experienced before. I am forever grateful. I cannot recommend Glenn Cohen enough.

I spent a couple of years hearing about Glenn through no less than six friends who had been working with him. When I sat down to email him about becoming a potential client I wasn't exactly sure what to expect or what I was looking to work through for that matter. He assured me when we sat down to talk that we would figure it out together as long as I trusted and committed to the process. I knew I was committed to finding a more joyful existence and so it began. I've never felt so comfortable and supported through an intensive but worthwhile journey. His work is so uniquely his and unlike anything I've ever experienced. While both challenging and emotional I can say without a doubt that I left each session a bit lighter than the one before. If you are lucky enough to have the opportunity to work with Glenn, show up with an open mind and an open heart and do the work. You won't regret it.

Today is bittersweet for me, as I have graduted from Glenn's coaching. I came to Glenn back in January at the recommendation of a friend. I was going through a divorce and a big move, and I really was just not in a great spot mentally and emotionally. I knew the moment I walked into Glenn's office I had found the right person to asisst me. His energy, whiteboards everywhere, his directness...it was all what I needed. I have never worked with anyone who has been so invested in my own emotional, physical and mental health as Glenn is. I cried almost every session, rolled my eyes, complained some; but I also laughed, joked, smiled, and found "me" again. I found the confident, positive, happy person I always knew was inside me. Glenn has not only helped me personally, but also in business. His leadersihp and managment advice is on point. It is through Glenn I learned how intertwined your personal and business lives are. I had a goal for a new position with my employer back in March. Glenn helped me succeed in obtaining the new position and has helped me grow tremendously as a leader and manager. I am sad today, but beyond thankful and grateful for everything Glenn has done for me. I tell everyone about Glenn. Every single person needs a Glenn in their life. He is not just any Life Coach. Glenn came into my life at just the right time. I KNOW this was not by chance. Whether you have a peronal or business need, I HIGHLY recommend Glenn. ????????????

I’ll start off by saying it has become a common phrase of mine to say “They need a Glenn in their life”. Glenn has been so instrumental in my personal growth and discovery and I am so grateful for his wisdom, compassion, and guidance. Glenn is more than just a life coach, he has become a friend, a trusted ally, a person I know I can always count on even if he is saying what I don't want to hear, but what I need to hear. When you are seeking life coaching in whatever capacity, whether it be for relationship, personal growth, career, family, childhood, and so forth, it goes without saying you are seeking help from the right person. I do not live locally (we have Zoom sessions) but a friend referred me to Glenn when she knew that the marriage counseling we were getting at the time was no longer helpful or giving us the tools to grow and move us forward. Glenn helped us both work on our relationship and ourselves individually, which in turn helped both. Glenn helped propel us forward from what I thought was a place of no return. We are both so much stronger well-rounded people who are much more in tune with ourselves and each other. Whether we ultimately decide to stay together or not, we can now do so in a place of love, deep respect and appreciation of who we both are, instead of a place of blame, toxicity, and pain. Glenn is there to listen and to help you talk through things, but he isn't going to just yes you. He will make you really look at yourself, deep down and hold yourself and others accountable, but without blame or judgement. Instead he gives you insight and understanding of why we partake in certain behaviors and learning what is at the root of it, while helping us to process meaning and redefining that meaning we assign to things. Once you have that understanding, you are empowered. It is so critical to get the right counselor when you are dealing with such important work on yourself or your relationships, all of which is life altering. With our first counselor (and being in therapy for the first time in my life) I felt we were being taken advantage of in our vulnerable situation and sessions just dragged out with a huge financial impact, without much to show for it other than regurgitating pain over and over. Any session with Glenn will have work that is going to be raw and bring to light pain that you may want to coast over, which is imperative to uncover honesty and bring conscious awareness. With Glenn it is the opposite of being taken advantage of, he will never turn you away any time you need to talk if he is able, but he also gives you the tools to be able to lean on yourself too. I knew off the bat from my friends’ reference, reading the other testimonials, and then getting Glenn’s very communicative background information along with the homework he assigned for us to complete (answering multiple forms of question on ourselves first thing), that there was a world of a difference and something truly special. Glenn took that paperwork and he would read on his own time to jumpstart the process and cover what would normally take months to come out, so that he could help us progress more quickly. If you are there to show up and be present and willing to do the work, you will expand yourself exponentially. Glenn is also patient with you and understands the emotional process and most importantly shares all the learning and knowledge he can with you so that you understand it on your own. I wish we could clone Glenn, and I know that as painful as the reasons are why we found ourselves seeking Glenn initially, what we have gotten out of it will be with us for life. It's a continual journey of blossoming into our truest most loving selves, so that we learn to take care of ourselves first in order that we may then take care of and love others. Thank you, Glenn, from the bottom of my heart. Courtney

When I first started with Glenn, I was what you call a “hot mess”. I was anxious, sometimes short tempered, and always thinking what if. I never focused on the present. What amazed me throughout this process is how much bad energy I was able to release meeting with him. He has changed how I view life situations and has provide me a different approach on what life brings to me. I know how to focus on the present and how to handle the good the bad and the ugly. I communicate better, my relationships are better, and I just feel better about myself. He has made me realize you have to release the resentment in the past and you have to be happy with yourself. He has changed my life and helped me be the person I am supposed to be. I am very grateful. Jillian

Glenn uses techniques that are different from the traditional talk therapy found in most psychology or coaching offices. The frameworks that he uses help each individual tap into their subconscious and personal narrative and effectively re-wire their thought patterns into more functional ones. This allows the client to work through experiences that have affected them and hindered them from being their strongest self. His approach is a process of self-actualization and it really works. I have been amazed at the inner strength I have developed. I accomplish more every day now because I am emotionally connected with my goals. Working with Glenn has changed my life.

Great experience all around! I highly suggest Glenn, what he offers and who he is.

I had the pleasure of working with Glenn from the late summer of '17 until early winter '18. My original intent in working with Glenn was to increase my confidence after transitioning to South Carolina and finding myself in a world of uncertainty and doubt. What I found by working with Glenn was that, and much more! Glenn has tremendous ability to challenge your thinking, question for deeper meaning and push you beyond your comfort zone from an area of care and compassion. His coaching style was just what I needed; direct & unwavering. With this coaching style I was able to see results immediately. Not just within my confidence, but also with my patience, understanding, compassion, listening skills and happiness. With the techniques and strategies Glenn equipped me with tools I can use in the future when I need to re-establish my grounding. If you're looking for an outstanding coach that will focus on your results, look no further than Glenn Cohen!

I was in a pretty low place when I first met Glenn. I cried during our introductory session before I had even officially hired him. A life change had thrown me into a cycle of constant negativity, anxiety and worry. I lost myself and my zest for life that I once had, and I had no idea how to get it back. Working with Glenn I learned about myself and started to understand what happened and why I was feeling the way I was. He taught me the tools to help me help myself. Making the effort to implement these in my daily life was a huge factor in my transformation. I'm extremely pleased to say, that, thanks to Glenn, I broke the cycle of negativity and became a happy, grateful person that is excited about the future instead of anxious about it. THANK YOU GLENN!!

My experience working with Glenn has changed my life. He gets to the root of the issues and actually uses practical techniques to change the way you think and feel, rather than just listening to you talk and offering advice. The positive changes in my spiritual and emotional well-being from the time I started working with him have been drastic. I can't thank him enough. I would highly recommend Glenn.

I had bad experiences with psychologists/psychiatrists as a young adult and went to several counselors before I found Glenn, so I was hesitant to see anyone! When I went to Glenn I was going through the toughest time of my life. There were definitely moments that I wasn't sure how I was going to move forward, but those were moments when Glenn was there for me the most. No matter the time of day or if it was a Saturday or Sunday, he was always just a phone call away. I can honestly say that I am the confident, positive and extremely happy person I am today because of the work I did with Glenn. And yes, you do have to DO the work. There is no button to push to make it better but Glenn will provide you will all of the tools and the guidance to truly become the best version of yourself IF you put the work into it. If you're looking for an easy way out, you shouldn't see Glenn. He's tough on you when you really need to be pushed but VERY compassionate when you're at your weakest. If you truly want to make changes in your life for any reason (be it career, relationship or personal development), RUN don't walk to Glenn's office. He is the best investment you could ever make for yourself and your life. I can honestly say that I have a true, lifelong friend in Glenn now.
