About Us
David has practiced for over 30 years as a psychologist to help clients fully resolve the emotional reactions associated with difficult and/or traumatic experiences.
Walter brings more than 40 years of experience coaching and consulting business leaders and teams to identify and address roadblocks to achieving and sustaining individual and organization results.
Lauren worked as a corporate executive for over 10 years, and while she was able to perform at a high level, she had emotional reactions to certain people and situations that caused stress even after work was done.
One day, David, Walter and Lauren were talking and wondered if the techniques David used in therapy could be adapted to help executives fully resolve emotional reactions that stemmed from the workplace, allowing them to improve their performance.
At that moment, Blue Square Coaching was born.
