A Little About Your Coach

A lifelong learner, I've allowed my natural curiosity to compel me from adventure to adventure. I'm an educator at heart and am passionate about seeing people live at their best. My professional background includes strategic planning, change management, and education (secondary and college-level). Formal education supported my preparedness to serve in an array of roles. I have earned degrees in administration, education, and my doctorate is in interdisciplinary leadership. I completed my integrative life coaching certification with the Integrative Wellness Academy, whose whole-person focus resonates with my world view. I sincerely believe that when one aspect of ourself is out of alignment, the whole of ourself is misaligned. It would be a joy to walk alongside you on your journey to wellness!

Brief Overview

Integrative wellness-based life coaching is for anyone who is committed to personal growth. My human-first philosophy is rooted in the belief that the client has all the necessary tools to achieve their goals; all a client needs is support to actualize their goals.

As a coach, I guide clients in practices that have a successful track record in supporting goal attainment previously unrealized. I will walk alongside you in your pursuit of success with the expectation that together, we will come to the process ready to work, to utilize the tools at our disposal, and to consistently move toward wholeness.

The most successful clients are those who recognize that growth happens in conjunction with time and effort. We humans are works in progress, which is a beautiful gift worth celebrating.

Please note, I am not a mental health practitioner. Mental health therapy and counseling are an important component of our health, healing, and overall wellness, and I strongly encourage people to seek and secure the help they need.
