As a therapist, I specialize in helping individuals navigate life transitions, heal from trauma, and develop healthier perspectives and behaviors.
Hi there, I'm Kiasi Valentine. I deeply believe that many mental health challenges stem from toxic thinking, which can cloud our perspectives and affect our well-being. My ideal client is someone dealing with anxiety, relational issues, ADHD, lack of motivation or focus, and feeling stuck. They're looking to replace these toxic thoughts, reduce symptoms, and heal from past traumas in order to lead a more fulfilling life. Together, we'll delve into these "Heart Matters" and work towards your goals in a warm, supportive environment.

It is my passion to help co-create a plan that allows you to live the life you desire to be present in your life moment by moment! You can STOP ruminating and begin a new way of BEING in your life rather than DOING your life! Your productivity, energy, and creativity will expand exponentially once you choose to let go of DOING and start BEING! .
Hello! I am Dr. Lori Runge and I am curious… Can you remember the last time you felt at peace with yourself and the world around you!? What would it be like to stop answering to the inner critic that plays in your head 24/7? Did you know that you have 12,000 to 60,000 thoughts race through your mind daily, and 95% of those thoughts are the same thought! Once you have the awareness of your thoughts you have the FREEDOM to choose, to acknowledge, accept or disregard those thoughts. Our thoughts can be pleasant, unpleasant or neutral, once you no longer label thoughts as good or bad, the mind no longer has control YOU do!

Then it becomes worse, goals you had before become impossible and the idea of loved ones could do better without you start to surface. Your mind tells you that the situation is hopeless and you are worthless. You drift to past experiences where you cringe physically and are filled with regret. Life becomes extremely boring due to you letting your fear control your life. Meeting new people and having new experiences doesn’t happen. You think you’re better off alone.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who has a passion for helping clients who are experiencing life transitions to deconstruct their beliefs in order to rebuild, create, and adopt healthier perspectives in order to be happier versions of themselves. I have experience counseling those who have endured complex trauma related to intimate partner violence, unresolved grief and loss, and relational issues. We sometimes find ourselves living a fragmented life, forced to compartmentalize our thoughts and feelings. In the process, we silence the individual needs that can hinder us from celebrating our whole selves.

As a former member of the National Gymnastics Team from my home country Venezuela, I experience first hand the importance of balancing mental, emotional and physical health to achieve personal goals. Those years as an elite athlete taught me that emotions and mindset played a decisive role in anybody's performance, no matter if it is in sports or any struggling situation life puts us through. Those are strength that we all have but sometimes we haven't developed them yet. I offer you a supportive, warm, non-judgmental environment to overcome the barriers that keep you from achieving your goals and becoming who you want to be.

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.
