Anitra Lesser

Since 2003, Anitra has been helping clients get to the heart of tough conversations, providing them with the guidance and skills they need to move through and past conflicts that had once seemed insurmountable. A compassionate executive coach, consultant, mediator, and professional speaker, her work focuses on developing collaborative, healthy, conflict-resilient, and successful organizational cultures and leaders.

Anitra earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in sociology, anthropology, and psychology with a minor in communications from Lewis and Clark College and a Master of Education from Regis University. She also holds professional certifications in executive coaching, mediation, conflict resolution, personal training, mindfulness, and more.

Driven by compassion, honest communication, and love, Anitra is a goal-oriented and motivated coach who believes that when clients set and achieve their goals, they are exponentially more confident and successful.

Anitra cares deeply about her clients’ well-being, and her goal is for each of them to leave their sessions feeling better, seen, cared about, and important. She is action-oriented, helping clients focus on what’s possible, and guiding them to create opportunities and mindsets that move them toward their desired outcomes. She works with them to build their emotional intelligence and agility, providing them with the tools they need to adapt and work more productively with others.

She works extensively with high achieving, goal-oriented individuals who are seeking more balanced, less stressful lives. Sometimes, Anitra finds, their accomplishments at work lead to problems or deficits in their personal lives or vice-versa, and it can take a toll on their physical and/or mental health. She is a Certified Level 1 VIM coach, who utilizes a results-focused, integrated approach to help clients create work-life balance with the goal of achieving success and health in all areas of their lives.

Anitra is action-oriented and sets her sights high. She also describes herself as resilient and self-aware. She holds herself accountable as a model for her son and others to demonstrate through her actions what it means to live a resilient and balanced life.
