ABOUT ME

For years, I worked as a registered nurse in operating rooms and clinical settings where efficiency was everything. I cared deeply about my patients, but there was never enough time—time to ask what was making them nervous, time to truly listen, time to help them work through what they were facing. I was recently told by a colleague, "Don't coddle them!" That moment crystallized something for me: the kind of care I value isn't coddling. It's human.

My path to coaching began during a particularly challenging time. The stress and anxiety I experienced working through COVID was intensified by something no one—not my doctors, not my therapists—thought to ask about: menopause. The hormone changes were affecting everything, but they went unrecognized and unaddressed. That experience opened my eyes to how often we're expected to push through without asking deeper questions about what our bodies and minds actually need.

I spent a long time doing what was expected of me. Now I'm ready to do what I want to do—and what I want is to sit with people for as long as it takes to work things out together.

I bring a background in evidence-based nursing practice across diverse clinical settings, along with years of training in meditation and mindfulness. I understand both the science and the emotional landscape of what we go through. I'm open to a wide variety of worldviews and traditions, and I approach each person's journey with patience and curiosity. Whether you're navigating menopause, a major life transition, or simply feeling ready for something different, I'm here to guide you through it—at your own pace.
