Christine Young

Senior Coach
Handel Group_Christine Young

Christine’s career path has always focused on developing and nurturing client relationships. After completing a BA in English from Skidmore College, she worked in advertising management with several large New York based international firms as an account manager. For seven years, her role included nurturing creative teams and their clients through every stage of creative development and strategic planning. Through this experience she developed a desire to work solely at the individual level and transitioned into recruiting; focusing on job placement and career counseling for freelance and permanent candidates in the advertising, marketing, and design fields.

It was her work in recruiting which ultimately led Christine to become a coach with The Handel Group™. After several months of experiencing the positive effects of HG coaching in her own life, Christine decided to shift her desire to help others realize their goals to beyond the recruiting arena. “I believe in it and want to share it with others.” In 2007, Christine joined the team of coaches at Handel Group™ Life Coaching, bringing with her a background focused on discovering and nurturing the needs and dreams of her clients.

Christine especially enjoys helping her clients with their challenges in the areas of weight loss, fitness, and other mind-body areas. She leads “Dream Body,” HGLC’s weight loss focused group telecourse. Her love of physical wellness shows up in all areas of her life, not only in her passion for coaching others on the topic, but also in her zeal for competitive running and triathlons. Christine lives in Manhattan with her boyfriend, Stuart, and her English bulldog, Lulu.
