Who is the coach?

Chris Rosenthal, M.S., LMHC, NCC, C.HT, Reiki Master and Co-Owner of Harmony Hill. 

Chris had a full time private psychotherapy practice in Orlando, Florida, until she came to upstate New York to start a retreat center. Working with couples is one of her specialties.  She believes that we bring our old beliefs, past experiences, and learned behaviors into our present relationships.  And the only way to live in the present is to heal and release what no longer serves us.  She also believes that we communicate defensively or offensively rather than seeking to understand and assertively and authentically sharing our thoughts and feelings.  Chris' philosophy is that we each have the ability to change, to develop, to create, the lives we wish to live, and she knows that in that we have no limitations.  All that is required is a willingness to want harmony over discord, respect over control, and compassion over chaos.  Chris will assist couples in assessing and achieving their intentions.

"Dear Chris, thank you for a wonderful, eye opening experience this past weekend. We definitely will use a lot of the suggestions you gave us. It was great meeting you: our hours together just really flew; you are genuinely good at what you do. We connected to you pretty much immediately and felt at home and definitely comfortable opening up to you and chatting the way we did. We are gonna hang in there and use the tools we learned at Harmony Hill...." Fran & Ed

"Dear Chris, the couples coaching retreat was just what we needed to take our relationship from boredom and complacency to a newfound excitement. Thanks. We'll be back for more..." Jim & Cheryl

"...the yurt was perfect and the silence gave us the chance to reconnect and fall in love all over again..." John & Ida P

"...Dear Chris...we are back to our routine and we can't stop thinking of the rich experience we've had at the Harmony Hill.  We thank you for the precious learnings during our weekend at Harmony Hill. We are deeply grateful for your patience and your authenticity during the moments we spent with you at The Hill.  We valued every discussion with you and we will apply the tools we learned in our daily interactions. Kind regards and best wishes...." R and N
