Thank you for taking the time out of your busy life to stop by and learn a little bit about me. I am grateful that our paths have crossed!
I am a mom, wife, friend, daughter, counselor (OH), researcher, and Wellness Coach. My life is an intentional balance of adventuring, seeking my truth, falling into joy, embracing challenges, and walking alongside others on their journey.
I have had the honor (and privilege) of listening to people stories for nearly 15 years. I entered the field of coaching after working as a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (OH) for over a decade. My passion for coaching grew out of my research on the topic of resilience. I believe in the profound innate strength that resides in all of us. As human beings, we have a limitless power to grow, evolve, and HEAL.
My coaching philosophy is founded on my belief that real growth happens when people possess knowledge and feel empowered to create meaningful change in their lives.
Counseling typically helps individuals get from a non-functional state to place of improved functioning. Counseling involves the diagnosis and treatment of mental health conditions. If you've been diagnosed with a mental health problem such as depression or anxiety, counseling is probably the better choice, at least initially.
Coaching focuses on helping individuals move from a place of functioning to a state of THRIVING. It does not involve a mental health diagnosis or treatment of pre-existing mental health conditions. Coaching services are not covered by insurance or health savings accounts. Coaching is the perfect fit for mentally well people who are ready to become the healthiest, happiest version of themselves!
Coaching involves shifting your perspective, gaining insight, and developing a plan to create meaningful change. A coaching partnership will help you navigate this journey. Together, we’ll formulate a plan to get you from where you are now to where you want to go (even if you’re not sure where that is yet!).
You will set goals and develop a plan to take meaningful steps towards achieving your dreams.
The increased accountability that comes along with coaching will help you grow and evolve more quickly.
You will better understand the relationship between your mind, body, and spirit.
You will feel empowered and become more resilient.
