I have 20 years of experience working with individuals who have been in your shoes; who have experienced traumatic life circumstances, and who feel stuck not knowing exactly what to do next other than to exist and repeat day after day, who are held captive by their limiting beliefs about themselves (eg- not being good enough, being bad, being a failure).
Are YOU ready to transform your life? Are you feeling overwhelmed by consuming thoughts, feelings, and repeating circumstances in your life? Are you feeling stuck, and not where you imagined you would be? Have you tried to make changes before, but for some reason, it just didn't work? If you answered YES to these questions, it's time for you to stop doing the same thing over and over and expecting the outcome to be different. It's time for you to start healing and move closer to the life you've always imagined you could have. It's time to make the change..now. YOU can do this, and I am here to support you.

Helping people live a better life is our passion.
My passion and interest is in people, their stories, their struggles and their triumphs. This has led me to my mission to help people create the life they have always wanted. I passionately believe that the key of being a good therapist/counselor/coach/mentor is not to help people be something they’re not... but it’s to help people become more of who they really are!

You may have even tried therapy and although it helped, it still didn’t completely do it for you. Now what? You are not broken.

Life Coaching Therapists

What can I expect from life coaching?

Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.

Can a life coach help treat anxiety?

Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.

Can life coaching be done online?

Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.

How long does life coaching last?

Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
