COACHING
“Sometimes the bravest and most important thing you can do is just show up.” -Brené Brown
Along life's twisting path, people encounter roadblocks that can be confusing or overwhelming, and they wonder if they’re alone. They experience inevitable health and mental health challenges. They experience hormonal shifts. Many don’t need clinical mental health treatment, but they do need validation, guidance, and a place to turn for evidence-based care. Coaching focuses on growth, goals, and accountability, but does not treat mental health conditions. As a licensed therapist, I help you determine the kind of support that’s right for you.
Everyone deserves support as they navigate the complexities of creating family, from partnering to planning for children. From parenting through infancy, the school-age years and adolescence to finally launching them into adulthood while pivoting to care for aging loved ones, and possible grandchildren, while growing older themselves.
As people age, many feel as though they’ve been handed no roadmap—like entering a cave without a flashlight. While research is evolving, access to informed, specialized care remains limited. Individuals deserve meaningful support as they navigate the physical and psychological shifts, and to be reminded that this chapter is full of purpose.
When seeking a coach, it matters that you find someone who aligns with your needs, values, and communication style.
My approach to coaching blends education, reflection, and accountability. I help clients understand key transitions, find their voice, and build confidence in self-advocacy. Together, we process the stresses that often accompany change while staying grounded in sustainable self-care. Coaching typically includes weekly or bi-weekly sessions (depending on your goals), with optional between-session guided reflections.
Common Topics that Engage Clients in Coaching
Values
There are moments in life when what once guided you no longer fits. Transitions, whether in relationships, career, parenting, or health, can create a quiet (or loud) realization that your priorities have shifted. You need space to pause, reflect, and realign. Together, we identify what truly matters to you at your stage of life and begin to shape choices that reflect those values and break up with old expectations, roles, or external pressures that no longer serve you.
Matrescence
Matrescence is the developmental transition into motherhood, an experience as profound and identity-shaping as adolescence, yet far less understood or supported. It begins in pregnancy and continues through the early years of parenting, bringing shifts in identity, relationships, priorities, and emotional life.This work helps you reconnect with yourself, your identity, your goals, and your capacity to grow through change with intention. You need more than a registry.
Parenting
It evolves constantly, asking you to adapt as your child grows while also managing your own stress, relationships, and expectations. At times, it can feel overwhelming, reactive, or uncertain. Parent coaching offers a space to step back, understand what’s happening beneath the surface, and respond with greater clarity and confidence. We focus on building a relationship with your child(ren) that is grounded in connection, consistency, and trust at every age and stage.
Relationships
Professional life and parenthood can strain even the strongest relationships. We’ll strengthen communication, reduce power struggles, and help you function as a connected, collaborative team whether you are in a committed romantic relationship, co-parenting, step-parenting or part of a blended family.
Career Challenges
Struggling to find balance in your career? Whether you're considering scaling back, pivoting, or redefining your role, we’ll clarify your values and create a plan that works for both your life and your work.
Launching Adult Children
When an adult child struggles with independence, whether in school, work, or daily responsibilities, it can create tension for everyone involved. Rather than laziness, more often it reflects executive functioning difficulties, low confidence, or feeling overwhelmed by expectations. The work focuses on understanding challenges and building a path forward that is realistic, respectful, and sustainable. This may involve supporting the adult child directly, guiding parents, or both.
Empty-Nesting
What can look like freedom on the outside can feel like loss, disorientation, or a quiet questioning of identity on the inside. When parenting roles shift, it can bring up grief, uncertainty, and also possibility. Together, we explore the emotional layers of this stage and help you make sense of who you are now.
Caring for Aging Relatives
Caring for aging parents or loved ones can be both deeply meaningful and incredibly demanding. Many find themselves balancing roles while also navigating the emotional and practical realities of caregiving. It can bring up stress, guilt, grief, and difficult decisions that deserve support.
Perimenopause & Menopause
Navigate this transition with clarity and confidence. We focus on understanding your body, managing symptoms, and building routines that support your energy, mood and overall well-being.
