about Robin and Karen

Inspiring Connections is the teaching partnership of Robin Goldstein-Lincoln MA LPC and Karen Alonge.

About Robin: I began my career teaching high school while earning my M.A. in Curriculum and Instruction in 1995. While earning my M.A. in Counseling Psychology, I worked as a high school counselor. Upon graduating in 1997, I became a middle school counselor, and later, a staff psychotherapist at a community agency in New York. More recently, I have been working in private practice as a psychotherapist and parent educator and consultant in Boulder. My husband and I are the proud parents of a fiery six year old who serves as my greatest teacher and student. Every tool in our Inspiring Connections parenting classes has been kid tested and approved. In my free time, I enjoy yoga, hiking, skiing, and spending time with family and friends.

About Karen: Since graduating with my B.A. in Communicative Disorders and Psychology, I’ve owned and operated several successful small businesses, including a home day care where I took care of 4 babies under the age of 18 months (yep, all at the same time), and a postpartum care service. In 2003, I became an intuitive life coach and parenting consultant after graduating from an extensive training program at Coach University. For fun, I spend time with my family, take salsa dancing lessons, write articles for my website and blog, and read voraciously. My two fantastic kids (I’m so objective …) were both born at home — my son is 17 and lives with me full time, and I share joint custody of my eighth grade daughter.
