About Me
Connection Consultant
My Approach
I am Althea Dent, founder of LiveWell Advising, LLC.
For years, I have worked at the intersection of human behavior, identity development, and relational dynamics.
My work centers on one principle.
Richer the relationships. The richer the life.
I focus on three relational domains:
Your relationship with yourself
Your intimate, family and social relationships
Your professional relationships
As a connection consultant, I help you build the relational architecture that supports long term fulfillment.
My approach seeks to deepen relationships with practical tools and skills.
Educational and Professional Background
With a Bachelor of Arts in Behavioral Science from the University of Chicago and a Master of Arts in Professional Counseling from Liberty University, I bring a strong educational foundation to my practice. Additionally, I am certified in Cultural Intelligence which provides me with a nuanced understanding of diverse backgrounds, ensuring that our work together honors and celebrates your individuality.
A Partner in Your Journey
My commitment to you is grounded in my core values of honesty, integrity, and commitment. I believe that a secure environment is crucial for personal growth and healing, and I am dedicated to ensuring that every interaction we have is guided by these principles.
Beyond the Office
When I’m not coaching, you’ll likely find me with a book in hand, enjoying my newly discovered green thumb, or spending time with my family and friends. I believe that growth and rejuvenation should go hand in hand, and I find joy in activities that feed both the mind and the soul.
Coaching vs. Mental Health Therapy
Although I will be drawing from therapeutic expertise and experience, I will not be operating as a therapist including diagnosing or treating mental health disorders.
