Imagine talking with a wise friend, or an older sister that has had experiences that could help guide you and they focus on you (and only you!) with your best interests at heart during a tough time.

It’s not like counseling where you dissect your childhood. A life coach meets you where you are, helps you get unstuck and start creating the life you want. Coaching is focused on personal growth, widening options, self-improvement, tools that move the needle, and achieving your specific goals.

I teach you tools that will help, (my super powers are around anxiety, stress & happiness!) I support you through struggles, envision all the possibilities, keep our focus on your goals and hold you accountable for the steps you choose.

You get off our session feeling uplifted, confident about the best pathway forward and ready to take actions that will get you closer to your goals.

I am kind, supportive and also, the kick-in-the-pants honest person in your life that will help you get results!

Additionally, I am a certified health coach, yoga teacher, meditation teacher, former educator and Reiki practitioner - so I draw on all of my background to help you.

We meet either at my office in Dover, NH or via Google Meet (similar to Zoom) on a regular basis. Some clients prefer the weekly check-in and some like every-other week. I have found 12 sessions to be the best length of time for really getting what you want. It takes a little bit to build momentum, create better habits and work through any roadblocks that can pop up.

Each week we can talk about what’s going on, what you want and what gets in the way. I will teach you more tools that can help and you will choose do-able action steps that move you closer to life on your terms.

I’ve successfully helped people going through divorces, grief, burnout, becoming unhappy empty nesters, getting out of dead-end jobs they hate, and debilitating anxiety. Instead, we’ve created and designed a life they want, where they are able to find a happiness, joy, resiliency, buoyancy, and a feeling of contentment every day.

This is the right coaching program for you if you are a) committed to reducing your stress and anxiety and living and working at your full potential, b) looking for a science-based and trusted system to make it stick, and c) willing to put in the initial effort to rewire years of mental habits that don’t serve you.

Some people believe that negative emotions are helpful. For example, they think stress gives them their performance edge, or beating themselves or others up is helpful for continual improvement.
Feeling pain for a split second when your hand touches a hot stove is indeed useful, delivering an important alert. But your self-sabotaging thoughts keep your hand on the hot stove, and you continue to feel negative emotions which harm both your happiness and performance.
I help you to learn to use negative emotions as a helpful alert, and then quickly shift to the positive region of the brain that has the calm clarity, objectivity, and creativity to handle the challenge most effectively.
