Client Testimonials

To those seeking career guidance or a career coach – I would highly recommend you speak with Dennece McKelvy of Intuitive Direction. My experience with her was life changing. Dennece under promised and over delivered on her abilities to help me. She guided me on my path to discover my core self, values and strengths.

Throughout our conversations she actively listened to me and identified my career satisfiers and obstacles. She taught me how to be strategic, intelligent, creative and focused when exploring employment opportunities. The results were amazing!

I found an awesome group of people with talents and core values very similar to mine. I have never before connected with my coworkers the way that I do now, and I am producing my best work! It is nearly impossible to describe “that thing” Dennece has, but for lack of a better term, “it’s magic.”

Her company is called Intuitive Direction for good reason. I have been recommending her to everyone I know. I am eternally grateful for Dennece McKelvy.

I cannot thank Debi enough for her coaching support.  After being out of work for over 10 years, your thoughtful coaching and patience helped me build my confidence to get back into the job market. Your positive and upbeat style was so refreshing and I so appreciate all of your guidance, Debi. I am so happy! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Dennece is great at providing career coaching. She has a unique combination of expertise in business, strategy and leadership combined with excellent insight and coaching skills. She has helped me hone in on things that I eventually might have come to realize but through her coaching I saved time and avoided miss-steps. I highly recommend her and will continue to use her as a trusted advisor and coach in my professional life.

As a result of Debi’s interviewing prep support and helping me to improve my LinkedIn account, I have secured an internship for the summer. Your interview coaching sessions helped me tremendously. I felt so confident responding to the behavioral interview questions and was able to actually enjoy the interviews because I was so prepared and confident. Thank you so much!

Over the years that I have known and worked with Dennece, I have found her to be not only extremely competent, but also deeply intuitive. She is able to critically assess the relevant issues in any situation while recognizing the personal dynamics. She possesses the ability to put people at ease while encouraging them to assess how best to resolve issues.

As a Professional Coach, Dennece McKelvy possesses the rare combination of logical reasoning, intuitive listening and passion in her work with clients, whether she is consulting, designing, strategizing, facilitating or coaching. I have worked with Dennece for almost three (3) years now in a professional co-facilitating relationship and find her to have an uncanny ability to connect with each participant, read the group, and adapt the material to different learning styles and emotions, as needed.

Dennece has a solid business background combined with a strong intuition about what question or tool will help her coachee move forward. She is an excellent listener and provides acknowledgement and inquiries that make me feel supported and ready to tackle the next challenge. Dennece has coached me for several months through some very challenging professional and personal situations. She asks thought provoking questions, that cause me to dive deep, reflect and look for new possibilities. Without hesitation, I would recommend her to anyone wanting a talented, professional, compassionate coach.

2008 was a pivotal year in my life. Things I had been working on for a long time did not seem to be manifesting. I had some tough choices to make around how I was going to proceed given the “what is” I was facing at that time. Dennece was instrumental in guiding me through this period. She was able to get to the root of what was going on within me that was causing my outer world to look the way it did. I remember on more than one occasion leaving a coaching session feeling like her suggestion didn’t feel right, or that the question I was being asked to consider was not the right question. Inevitably, two or three days later, I would find myself in an “aha” moment with a new level of clarity around something that had seemingly been hidden from me. Dennece has a way of planting seeds that sprout and lead to great change.” I look at the shift I have experienced in my life since that time with a great sense of accomplishment. It is with a high level of enthusiasm that I recommend Dennece as a Life Coach.

I hired Dennece to overcome some major challenges I was facing when I was launching a new business. Needless to say I made a great choice because of her expertise, creative thinking, and encouragement. She is a great listener and was invaluable in helping me overcome major obstacles. I highly recommend her to those looking to overcome challenging business or personal goals.

I am pleased to recommend Dennece McKelvy as a senior coach and business consultant. She is an outstanding facilitator who draws out individuals in order for them to assess how best to resolve issues. Dennece quickly analyzes business problems and her dedication and desire to drive success in organizations make her a key contributor in the development of a business and its leadership. I highly recommend Dennece.

I’ve had some amazing outcomes already as the result of Debi’s coaching. I’ve been feeling more confident with my work in particular, and my boss just left the company. I met with the two CEOs, and they’ve decided that instead of hiring someone to replace my former boss, I’m the new head of the San Francisco office! Got a lovely pay raise (beyond my goals that we talked about), and an amazing title. It’s an incredible opportunity to get for my career, and I’m just so surprised as to how well things are going, so just wanted to say thank you so much!

Dennece has become an important part of a facilitation team for several events managed by Veer Consulting. Her commitment and presentation speak well of her abilities as a professional facilitator, ensuring that the standards for specific, detailed performance guidelines are upheld. I hope to be able to call upon Dennece as similar projects arise. A very impressive team member.

Dennece is well grounded in her deep seated sense of what it is that the universe can provide for us and has the special ability to bring that forth in our conversations. She has been instrumental in assisting me in my making the choices that serve me in moving forward toward my most purposeful self.

I just want to say, thank you for assisting me with my new career path. I was able to find my dream job as a trainer with a great company and great pay with your advice and coaching. Not only did your advice help me obtain my dream job, it also assisted me in obtaining my first point of sale for my small business. Words cannot express how grateful I am and how your imprint will stay with me forever. Thank you for stress free living and supporting my dreams.

It’s been a journey for me and I’m so glad to have met Debi and have had her coaching. As you believed in me at a time when I was unable to believe in myself and see my inner strength and beauty. I’ve now been at my new job coming up on 7 months and it has provided me an opportunity to look at, go deeper and heal some of my wounds.

I wanted to let you know that I got the job with the software company. I am so grateful to have someone like you to help me succeed! Thank you so much for the confidence and courage to follow my dreams!
