I invite you to take the next step toward the life and connection you deserve.
Many people find themselves feeling disconnected—from their partner, their emotions, or even from themselves. My clients often come to me feeling stuck in cycles of conflict, loneliness, or emotional overwhelm, wanting more clarity and fulfillment in their relationships and personal lives. Whether you’re navigating a breakup, struggling with intimacy, or coping with depression or anxiety, I provide a supportive and nonjudgmental space to explore these challenges and move toward healing and balance.

Navigating life with a traumatic past and ongoing CPTSD is challenging.
I love playing with manifestation, and during several personal and clients' life situations I noticed that negative core beliefs formed due to trauma holds us back from manifesting the life we desire. I use different trauma processing methodologies such as EMDR, IFS, SE to name a few to heal from past wounds.

My approach is rooted in Healing Centered Engagement - an asset-based, culturally-rooted framework that honors your strengths while addressing wounds. I don't pathologize you. I see you as whole, capable, and worthy of healing. I'm not reading from a manual. Everything I teach comes from lived experience.

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.
