Wellness Coaching
Wellness coaching is a collaborative partnership focused on helping you move forward—building the life, habits, and sense of wellbeing you're seeking. Unlike therapy, which often explores past experiences and treats mental health conditions, coaching is present and future-oriented. It's designed for people who are generally functioning well but want support in creating meaningful change, deepening self-awareness, or navigating transitions with greater clarity and intention.
How Coaching Differs from Therapy
While both coaching and therapy involve supportive conversation and personal growth, they serve different purposes:
Therapy typically focuses on healing, diagnosing and treating mental health conditions, processing trauma, and understanding how past experiences shape current struggles. It's clinical work designed to help people move from a place of distress to stability.
Coaching is educational and developmental. It assumes you're already functioning and focuses on helping you thrive—clarifying goals, building skills, overcoming obstacles, and creating sustainable practices that align with who you want to become. Coaching is not a substitute for therapy when clinical treatment is needed.
The Approach
We begin with the understanding that healing, growth, stability, and regulation happen from the inside out. Rather than offering quick fixes or one-size-fits-all solutions, I meet each question with curiosity, presence, and deep listening.
I blend integrative wellness strategies to support you in building resilience, clarity, and sustainable change. Everything that arises in our sessions is welcome—we work with what's real, not what you think you're supposed to feel or do.
What We Explore
Wellness coaching can support you in areas such as:
Life transitions - navigating career changes, relocation, relationship shifts, or other major life changes
Stress management and resilience - developing practices to manage overwhelm and build capacity
Personal growth and self-awareness - understanding your patterns, values, and what truly matters to you
Work-life balance - creating sustainable rhythms that honor both productivity and rest
Relationships and communication - strengthening how you show up with others
Mindfulness and embodiment - developing greater presence and connection with your body
Habit change and accountability - building new patterns and following through on intentions
Purpose and meaning - clarifying what you're here to do and how to live in alignment with that
Creative blocks and expression - reconnecting with creativity and authentic self-expression
How We Work Together
As you explore your patterns and strengthen your inner resources, you'll begin making choices that feel aligned with who you truly are. I guide from a place of compassion, skill, and experience, with the intention of supporting you toward greater balance, fulfillment, and personal freedom—at a pace that feels safe, grounded, and real.
Sessions are collaborative. You're the expert on your own life; I'm here to help you see more clearly, access your own wisdom, and move forward with confidence.
