Yet, from experience, I know that creating positive change in your life is challenging to do on your own. That’s why I believe my role as a life coach is to be a sounding board, support system, and guide for those looking to do the long-term, lasting work to create a life they love living!
Each person who breaks out of negative patterns makes the world a more peaceful place.
My approach is a blend of coaching, counseling, gentle guidance, and unwavering support.
Care is at my core. Before I became a coach, I had a long career in direct patient care, clinical operations management, and healthcare consulting.
Working in the medical field for so long, I developed an intimate understanding of the resiliency behind the human spirit. And after healing from my own history of trauma, mental health challenges, and complicated grief, I realized that my passion truly lies in personal transformation. It was this deeply rooted passion and desire to help others that led me to pursue my career as a professional coach.
Because of my clinical background, I saw the importance of going beyond intuition and studying the evidence-based modalities that have been shown to support transformation.
I pursued dual coaching certifications at the Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching with a primary focus in transitional life coaching. I am well versed in mental health psychology and hold multiple coaching and therapy credentials.
I also belong to the International Coach Federation and in 2017 was a Chair’s Award Recipient for my outstanding work and dedication to the coaching profession.
Above all, I have an unwavering dedication to empower my clients to dive deep and determine their personal truths. Although every client’s path and coaching plan is different, the end goal is always the same – to own your authenticity, reclaim your personal power and elude shallow living!
I believe in …
Following my intuition & encouraging others to do the same
The healing power of holding space for one another
Connecting with others in deep and meaningful ways
Leaning into joy through the simple things in life
Facing life’s obstacles from a place of genuine gratitude
It is my personal belief that a care provider can only take a client as deep as they have been willing to go with themselves. I feel it’s important to share that I have done my work and am committed to my continued evolution, growth, and uncovering.
Throughout my life, I have come to understand that personal power comes from owning your past experiences. When we allow our life experiences to empower us, that’s when the magic happens. A woman who learns how to see her past through a lense of empowerment is unstoppable.
This is why I am passionate about helping women take what they’ve been through to create change in a positive way!
A peek inside my day-to-day…
- My Chihuahua, Pebbles (or “Pebs”), is my administrative assistant and is in session with me every day.
- When I’m not working, I’m probably engaging in “nature therapy” — hiking, camping, kayaking, you name it.
- The quaint, bayside town I live in feels straight out of a Hallmark movie.
- My non-negotiables include a gratitude practice and time by the ocean.
- I’m an INFJ personality type, which gives me an almost uncanny ability to understand people’s true motivations, feelings, and needs.
- My big goal is to start a nonprofit foundation to help others on a larger scale!
