COACHING

Coaching is essential to personal growth and healing. Most problems will not disappear on their own. And if you are reading this, you might suspect the same. Although human experience is unique to each individual, the ways we respond to pain are very common.

We adopt coping mechanisms and adaptive behaviors for a good reason, but then often find ourselves trapped by the same. What if someone knew a way out? Would you be willing to take a step in a new direction?

I offer practical and effective help in the areas of depression and anxiety, OCD, trauma, narcissistic abuse, burnout, and loss. With emotional intelligence being the fastest-growing job skill today, coaching can boost not only your personal life but professional too.

I have a soft spot for immigrants and marginalized groups and approach each client with sensitivity to issues of culture, spirituality, and diversity. If we sound like a good match, let’s get started today.
