Trauma-Informed Counselor, Coach, and Creator of Holistic Life Balancing
I’m here to help you find steadiness again.
For over two decades, I’ve supported people who have lived through chronic stress, fear-based or authoritarian environments, high-pressure systems, and overwhelming life transitions.
My work blends trauma-informed care, somatic practices, nervous system stabilization, and values-based coaching—always grounded in compassion and without pressure, urgency, or perfectionism.
I believe healing is not about “fixing” yourself.
It’s about coming back to yourself in a way that feels safe, connected, and steady.
My Approach
My coaching and therapeutic style centers on:
Nervous System Stabilization
Understanding your body’s responses—fight, flight, freeze, fawn—helps us gently move from survival mode into steadier states.
I teach grounding practices, micro-regulation tools, and ways to build capacity over time.
Somatic Practices
We integrate simple, accessible body-based tools to help you reconnect with your internal signals, soothe overwhelm, and rebuild trust in yourself.
Trauma-Informed Support
Everything we do is consent-based, collaborative, and paced to your nervous system—not what you “should” be able to handle.
Your comfort, agency, and choice guide the process.
Deconditioning from Authoritarian Patterns
Many people carry survival patterns from rigid, critical, controlling, or emotionally unpredictable environments.
I help you untangle those internalized messages and replace them with gentler, self-honoring ones.
Practical, Grounded Life Coaching
We create realistic, values-aligned next steps that fit your energy, capacity, and lifestyle.
No hustle culture. No overwhelm. No shame-based motivation.
Who I Support
I work with individuals who are:
- Recovering from authoritarian or high-demand family systems
- Navigating anxiety, panic, shutdown, or chronic overwhelm
- Feeling unsteady after trauma, grief, or relational ruptures
- Burnt out from caregiving, healthcare, teaching, or helping professions
- Rebuilding identity and self-trust
- Trying to heal while still living in stressful systems
- Craving grounded, gentle, nonjudgmental support
If your nervous system has been in survival mode for a long time, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to navigate this season alone.
My Background
I am a Licensed Associate Counselor (LAC), trauma-informed coach, group facilitator, and the creator of:
- Unshakeable: Regulate, Reclaim & Rise
- Nervous System Reset: From Survival Mode to Steady
- Deconditioning from Authoritarian Parenting Workbook
- Trauma-Informed Productivity for Healthcare Teams
- Multiple programs, workshops, and trauma recovery resources
My work is shaped by years of counseling, somatic education, trauma recovery frameworks, values-based coaching, and my own lived experience of healing.
My Values
Everything I create and teach is rooted in:
Safety
Your nervous system guides the pace. You’re never pushed into overwhelm.
Agency
You always choose what feels right for you.
Accessibility
Healing should not be gatekept. I offer pay-what-you-can options, sliding scale sessions, and community-care models.
Gentleness
No pressure. No shame. No force. Healing happens in the small, steady moments.
Wholeness
Nothing about you is broken.
You deserve support that honors all parts of who you are.
If you’re ready for a steadier way forward…
You don’t have to wait for the perfect moment or the perfect version of yourself.
Begin where you are — gently, with support.
