When you interact with Naomi, you will feel and benefit from  her gentle, genuine, and positive energy. As a State Policy Director, I frequently sought out Naomi’s personal and professional perspectives on issues affecting children with disabilities and their families. She brought a voice that was genuine, thoughtful, positive and informed.  She is all about forging positive and trusting relationships, yet she always perseveres on what matters.  I would, without hesitation, choose Naomi to advise and support me in personal and professional matters!  

Pat Geary, Retired, New York State Education Department, Office of Special Education

Naomi is an incredible partner in my career journey. Whenever I feel trepidation about my next steps, she is immediately responsive, helping me navigate those fears with grace. She doesn’t just push for results, she fosters a mindful space that provides the clarity I need to form meaningful, authentic goals. What I appreciate most is the balance she strikes, combining that internal clarity with expert networking insights that drive my growth in the most optimal direction. I feel more confident and focused with every session. Naomi is the rare coach who masters both the emotional and strategic sides of career development. She isn’t just helping me find a job, she is helping me build a career with intention.  

Katy, coaching client

I have collaborated with Naomi Brickel for more than two decades, and even after my 50 years of public education leadership experience, I continue to learn from her every day—especially from the way she leads with resilience, joy, and deep humanity shaped by lived experience. Naomi is a truly transformational coach, consultant, and leader whose work—from guiding individuals through life’s turning points to leading inclusive, human-centered, systemic innovations—models clarity, dignity, and purposeful change. I am profoundly proud to call her my collaborator and my mentor.

I admire and appreciate Naomi as a fast learner, a natural collaborator, and someone who always has a steady hand at balancing the needs of many stakeholders and multiple pieces of the project. Of the many dedicated professionals I have known, Naomi listens hard and acts thoughtfully. Her leadership is based on her ultimate respect for all people … I would, without reservation, work with Naomi on any project she is connected with, knowing it would be fun and productive, and also driven by a thoughtful, inclusive style.
