Empowering Women Through Deep Coaching
I am dedicated to supporting women in their journey towards self-discovery and empowerment. Other empowerment coaches stay on the surface of thoughts and feelings. I believe in the power of deep internal reflection to gain a new perspective, allowing you to understand and transform your internal system. My mission is to guide you in accessing your inner wisdom and natural healing capacity, enabling you to unravel the patterns that get in the way of your authentic voice and knowing. So you can live with a deeper sense of aliveness as you relate to your emotions and desires in a new way!
My coaching approach is designed to help you unravel patterns of people-pleasing, perfectionism, social comparison, self-doubt, and all things good girl without compromising your integrity—those relational values that are important to you through IFS (internal family systems), somatic awareness, and depth psychology.
So often as women we get stuck in all or nothing thinking. For example, either I’m a caring person who is available for others to lean on or I’m selfish for saying no. There is no shame in the ways we get stuck. These parts of us have been keeping us safe for a long time. I hold the perspective that everything within, every symptom, has a positive intent. The more we judge, critique, fear, or avoid it the more it appears as something “bad.”
Unravel patterns that no longer serve you
There are patterns that get passed down in our families and communities about the roles women should perform. These can be beautiful traditions and fulfilling in their own right. However, for many women, women like you, these act like rules and expectations about what you can and cannot do, say and cannot say, be and cannot be. Often they are unconscious: under the surface of our relational behaviors. We internalize beliefs about who we are, what we’re capable of, what we deserve, what kind of risks we’re allowed to take from these rules. Now what these beliefs are and in what context they show up will be different depending on your upbringing, class, religion, race, communities, and even what resources you currently have and your emotional/mental state (i.e., if you’re under a lot of stress, dealing with grief, etc.).
I provide a supportive space for you to get clear on what is and isn’t working in your life, and dive deep into the why behind your behaviors and feelings so you can release the burdens you carry that may be yours or your ancestors!
heal parts that long to be seen & HearD
As we unravel certain patterns through using IFS (internal family systems), somatic and mindful awareness, and depth psychology, we will discover younger parts that have been hurt, misunderstood, ignored, feared, or even overwhelmed. These parts cry out for you to witness their stories through symptoms, dreams, emotional outbursts, and desires. This has been called inner child work. There is a way to process these experiences so it’s not overwhelming. Slow is fast in our work together.
These younger parts have so much life and energy to offer when you can integrate them back into your life. I bring so much compassion to these parts. Your full story deserves to be told. I bring a mind-body approach to healing that increases your tolerance of painful emotions which inevitable makes you more resilient and increases your ability to feel joy and pleasure.
How your internal system is organized (with your thoughts, feelings, memories, sensations, dreams, intuition, and visions) will be unique to your soul makeup and past experiences. As your coach, I provide space for us to explore your system at a pace that is best for you.

Get clear on what’s truly important in your life, your soulful values. What lights you up? What pisses you off? So much of this is inextricably wrapped up in your pain. Our emotions are signals to what is most important to us.
Also, if you’d like we can look at your astrology chart to gain some clarity on what makes you truly you. Then we can discuss what changes need to be made to ensure your life is aligned with your values and who you authentically are.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How is your style of coaching different than therapy?
Like therapy, I hold safe, compassionate space for a full range of emotions and experiences. Our work can feel deeply healing and transformational. However, I’m not a licensed therapist—I don’t diagnose or treat mental health conditions.
Instead, I’m a trauma-informed coach and IFS (Internal Family Systems) Level 1-trained practitioner. My approach is rooted in the belief that you already hold the wisdom and capacity to heal within you.
Rather than pathologizing your pain, we work to unburden the extreme beliefs, emotions, and protective patterns that may be keeping you stuck. Together, we gently reorganize your inner and outer life in alignment with your multidimensional, soul-led self.
How effective is the IFS model?
Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a powerful, evidence-based model that’s been shown to support healing from trauma, anxiety, depression, and chronic stress.
The IFS Institute continues to expand its research base, and studies increasingly support what so many clients already experience—IFS fosters deep emotional healing, greater self-compassion, and long-lasting transformation.
In my work, I’ve seen how this model helps people reconnect with their inner wisdom, unburden painful beliefs, and create meaningful change from the inside out.
The IFS Institute is expanding its body of to support the efficacy of the IFS model in alleviating and resolving trauma, stress, anxiety, and depression.
How is your style of coaching different than other personal growth/life coaching?
While traditional life coaching often focuses on mindset and surface-level goals, my approach goes much deeper.
I weave together depth psychology, Internal Family Systems, and somatic wisdom to explore the patterns, beliefs, and emotional wounds that shape your inner and outer life. I don’t just coach your thoughts—I support your whole self: mind, body, heart, and soul.
As someone pursuing a PhD in depth psychology, I bring a lens that sees meaning in your patterns, emotions, and inner experiences—not as problems to fix, but as portals to healing and transformation.
That said, not everything has to be deep all the time. I also offer practical, grounded support—whether that’s creating wellbeing practices, building self-trust, or showing up as your compassionate accountability partner.
I help you go deep when it serves… and come back up for air when needed. It’s about balance, integration, and forward movement from the inside out.
Do I pay before or after a session? And how much?
Payment is required before each session to reserve your spot. This helps create a clear, grounded container for our work together.
Each 90-minute session is $150.
I also offer a sliding scale for those experiencing financial hardship or living paycheck to paycheck—because I believe this work should be accessible to those who need it most. If this would support you, feel free to reach out or bring it up during our free 20-minute clarity call.
After you book, you’ll receive a confirmation email with payment details. If you have any questions about payment or need additional support, I’m always here to help.
What forms of payment do you take?
For online sessions, I accept credit or debit cards through the secure booking system.
For in-person sessions, I also prefer payment by card through the online calendar. However, I do accept cash if needed—we’ll go over those details during our initial consultation call.
The goal is to keep things simple and easeful, so you can focus on the work itself.
What is a first session like?
Our first session is a gentle entry point into our work together. We’ll explore what’s been feeling heavy or tender for you, and I’ll invite you to share anything you’d like me to know.
Please come exactly as you are—all parts of you are welcome here.
We’ll also begin to clarify an intention or focus for our time together, though there’s no pressure to have it all figured out. Many clients experience a sense of relief in this first session, simply from being witnessed and held in a space where they don’t have to carry everything alone.
What kind of skills will I develop working with you?
In our work together, you’ll develop skills that support both emotional resilience and soulful self-awareness.
🌿 Mindfulness & Inner Awareness
You’ll begin to notice more space between your emotions, thoughts, and actions—so you can respond from a grounded place, rather than reacting from old patterns. This allows you to make choices aligned with your values.
💫 Emotional Regulation & Insight
You’ll learn to identify what you’re feeling and why. With time, you’ll be able to sense when emotions are linked to past wounds versus what’s true in the present moment—and respond to those emotions with compassion and clarity.
🌀 Reflection, Critical Thinking & Soul-Making
We’ll explore recurring patterns and inner dynamics in your life—helping you develop deeper reflection skills and a soul-centered lens for making meaning from your experiences.
These skills don’t just support healing—they empower you to live with greater presence, purpose, and authenticity.

What to Expect
In our sessions, we slow things down. We’ll always go at the pace of your system, gently turning inward to explore the thoughts, feelings, and sensations that arise.
I bring in somatic practices to help you connect with your body and access deeper layers of healing. Sessions are flexible and intuitively guided—we follow what’s alive for you, not a rigid agenda.
This is a co-creative space. I’ll check in regularly to see if you’re open to certain exercises or directions, and I welcome your feedback throughout our work together.
You’ll also complete simple assessments at the beginning, middle, and end of our time together so we can track growth and transformation.
Over time, you may feel more authentic, grounded, and alive in your body—with greater intimacy, joy, and clarity in every area of your life.
I can’t wait to support you in this sacred, life-changing work.
