My coaching practice includes working with people around career and life transitions, relationship challenges, getting unstuck, creating your best future life, leadership challenges, and college student support and success. You may be successful on the outside yet feeling stuck with self-doubt, burnout, or a big life or leadership decision. I can help you gain clarity, confidence, and direction so you can move forward with intention.
Together, we’ll explore your goals, values, and priorities, uncover patterns that hold you back, and create actionable steps to move toward meaningful change.
My style is warm, thoughtful, heartfelt and insight-oriented. Clients often tell me they feel both deeply understood and gently challenged.
Across my work, I draw on:
• Cognitive and behavioral change strategies
• Acceptance and mindfulness-based approaches
• Internal Family Systems (IFS level 1 certified)
• Values and meaning exploration
• Strengths-based
Coaching is forward-focused and collaborative—it is not psychotherapy and does not diagnose mental health conditions. I provide psychotherapy only in my clinical role as an Associate Clinical Social Worker, at Center for Child and Adolescent Mental Health. If you are interested in therapy, please contact me at CCAMH.
