Relationships are complicated; family is hard, and communication breaks down. I support people who are ready to grow by looking at their behavioral and communication patterns, practice new tools, and make healthy changes to feel better in their most important relationships. My clients want to spend less energy recovering from unnecessary drama and more time having fun together. They are doing the work to shift unhealthy intergenerational patterns, heal and prevent trauma, and develop confidence to love themselves and others deeply.
I’m a national board certified health and wellness coach, with over 20 years of experience supporting human development and family relationships. I can help you understand what’s happening in your mind and body so you can work through getting “high jacked” by flight/flight/freeze. This opens up deeper connection and healthier interactions.
If you’re looking for compassion, accountability, and partnership as you progress in your personal development, coaching can help. This professional relationship is different from therapy; if you are interested in seeing if we are a fit, please schedule a free chat. I’m down to earth, open minded, and love using humor to connect.

I help couples improve communication to manage and minimize conflict, have more fun together, and align around goals. During the initial 90 min session we talk about what you love about each other and the barriers to living your best lives together. Maybe it's kids, conflicting values, or a natural growing apart. Coaching provides clarity, accountability, and a path forward.
