I am a certified Whole Person Coach. This is a holistic method where I empower you to embrace, embody and express your whole self. We tend to make decisions in life using only our thinking brain. This is normal, but we have 2 other brains to consult with, our heart brain and our gut brain. In Whole Person Coaching, I help you get in touch with your heart and gut brains. The end result is alignment between all 3 brains before taking action steps toward your goal. As you become more aware of your inner wisdom, mindful of your inner world and outer experience, and develop capacity to self-innovate, you will create a life you love living. And you'll have the tools to use in achieving future goals.

Coaching relationships do not involve the diagnosis or treatment of any disorders. The International Coach Federation (ICF) defines coaching as "partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential." You may benefit from the support of a Certified Professional Coach if (1) you feel lost or confused; (2) you are afraid to try something new, even though you are genuinely interested in it; (3) you feel constant stress, self-doubt and succumb to the 'you shoulds' imposed by yourself, family or friends; (4) your happiness and forward momentum are constantly derailed by limiting beliefs, old patterns, and self-sabotage; and/or (5) you have a goal or vision but lack the focus, organization, and clarity necessary to form an action plan.

I am a Level 1 Certified Trauma Informed Coach. This means I have learned: - the different forms of trauma and how it affects the Whole Person. - to recognize indicators for trauma present within clients and responsibly offer support. - to invite clients to discover and develop techniques to self-regulate and reclaim your sense of self. - to engage clients to develop their own resiliency practice. - to motivate clients to self-master their unique circumstances so they can move into the life they truly are meant to live and gently let go of the past. As a gentle reminder, coaching is not a substitute for counseling. Should it become apparent at any time that the client is unable to benefit from the coaching process due to overwhelming trauma experiences, I will lovingly refer them to a counselor.

No. Coaching is not a substitute for counseling, psychotherapy, psychoanalysis, mental health carae, or substance abuse treatment. Please seek help from one of the above professionals if: (1) you are feeling an overwhelming, prolonged sense of helplessness and sadness. (2) your problems fail to resolve or improve despite your efforts and help from family and friends. (3) you find it difficult to concentrate on work assignments or conduct everyday activities. (4) you worry excessively, expect the worst, or remain constantly on edge. (5) your actions, such as drinking too much alcohol, using or abusing drugs, or being aggressive, harms yourself or others.
