I hear you - life feels like a constant struggle now. But you're here because you know there's more to your life than feeling like a f*ck-up, out of control, or living behind a mask. When there's so much outside noise, misplaced expectations, and uncertainty about your value to the world, it can suck the life right out of you. It doesn't matter how many boxes you check off your list, or how many self-help books you read, things don't click into place. If they do, the change certainly doesn't last.

I work closely with anxiety, stress, life transitions, grief & loss, as well as trauma, recovery, and depression.
Being a therapist is more than just a job for me, it is my passion. Clients have provided positive feedback on my down-to-earth personality and ability to bring humor into sessions. I believe in working collaboratively with clients to regulate anxiety while removing barriers that keep us from feeling our emotions. I am here to help you unlock the core reasonings for issues that negatively impact relationships, performance, and self-esteem.

I find an integrated approach to therapy, using life coaching in Jungian psychology and clinical hypnotherapy, is most effective in client transformation.
Welcome. I am here to help you. There are times and stages of our lives where we are feeling overwhelmed, hopeless, confused, or proactively seeking clarity on specific issues, and in need of deeper insight into how to cope with challenges. I use a collaborative and experiential approach, honoring your cultural strengths to support you through what motivates you and triggers you, and identify effective and meaningful ways of being. In psychotherapy, you have a safe space to share your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Sometimes we just need professional guidance to get us to the right level of understanding to potentiate change.

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.
