How One Journey Became a Mission to Help Others Grow

For over 35 years, I’ve dedicated my life to helping people see themselves more clearly and break through the limits they once believed were permanent. With a Bachelor of Science in Behavioral Psychology, a minor in Early Childhood Education, and Certification as an ICG PCC OME Life Coach, I’ve combined deep understanding with real-world tools.

My path has taken me from consulting for the Federal government and private sector to providing transformational life coaching for individuals and teams wanting honest guidance they can trust. Each role sharpened my problem-solving skills and my commitment to seeing the potential in people, even when they can’t yet see it for themselves.

RTE Life Coaching grew out of this dedication. I know the power of authentic questioning, safe conversations, and a supportive space to dismantle old patterns. Today, I’m here to help you move forward with clarity, purpose, and a vision for what comes next — because you don’t have to do this alone.

With over four decades of experience and deep roots in human development, we hold credentials you can trust. Elisa Burns is a Certified ICG PCC OME Life Coach, dedicated to the highest standards set by the International Coach Federation (ICF). This means every conversation and every strategy meets the strictest codes of ethics and proven best practices.

Holding a Bachelor of Science in Behavioral Psychology with a minor in Early Childhood Education, plus decades of senior consulting for both government and private sectors, I bring a powerful blend of insight and practical problem-solving to every session. You can feel confident knowing your growth is supported by expertise that’s both qualified and genuinely invested in you.

Where Honest Connection Meets Real Change

Every person’s story is different — and so is every coaching session. At RTE Life Coaching, we take the time to genuinely listen deeply, as we have for 35 years, asking the right questions, and truly understanding what you want from this journey. You’ll never feel like just another client on a list.

Your experience is shaped by genuine care, thoughtful insights, and proven tools that fit you, not a one-size-fits-all plan. Together, we create a safe space where you can be open, challenge old beliefs, and step forward with clarity and courage that lasts far beyond our conversations.
