You’ve come to the right place!
We as a society are often disconnected from our bodies. We are being pulled in many directions due to stress, life, family, work etc. and worry and ruminate about things that are out of our control. We are either living in the past, the future and very rarely are we living in the present.
Because we are living outside of our bodies, we sometimes ignore the messages that it sends, telling us that something is “wrong”. And we only notice when we experience symptoms such as pain, sleep disturbances, headaches, anxiety, depression, or grief.

Q: What is a certified trauma informed coach?
To put it simply, a certified trauma informed coach is a life coach that has been through special training in the different areas of trauma with the understanding of their symptoms, how trauma impacts the brain-body connection, your thoughts, behaviors, the ability to function on a daily basis, how it impacts your relationships and the inability to set or accomplish goals. Trauma informed coaches can work with client who have a history of racial and systematic trauma, history of child abuse, neglect, sexual assault, domestic abuse (emotional, narcissistic/ toxic relationships), workplace bullying and etc. We’ve all experienced trauma, it’s how we process it that determines whether or not we will experience long term effects. Trauma changes the way we think, feel, perceive the world around us and is stored in our tissues. If not released or processed, it can cause muscle pain, digestive issues, autoimmune disorders and other health issues.
Q: Do I have to retell my story?
No. I do not need to know your trauma history in order for us to work together. Depending where you are in your healing journey, retelling your history can be exhausting and triggering. My job is to meet you where you are today, help you reach your goals so you can live up to your fullest potential while understanding that your trauma history may impact how you move forward in life. The symptoms that you are experiencing from a traumatic event is a normal reaction to an abnormal event. If you feel the need to share your history due to it impeding your ability to move forward, I will hold space and listen. I may ask about how this impacts your ability to progress with your goals especially when it comes to behaviors, patterns and thoughts. I will guide you on how to heal and recover but I am careful not to diagnose or stay in your past as this is an area to share with your therapist.
Q: How is coaching different from therapy?
As your coach, I do not diagnose, prescribe medications or help you to process your trauma. My role is not to explore the past but is instead to provide you with the tools and resources to help you heal, transform obstacles into opportunities, helping you to see the possibilities and take action so that you can live your best life, achieve your goals and aspirations. Please know that you can have coaching and therapy at the same time.
Q: How long do clients work with a coach?
Change does not occur overnight. In order to receive the maximum benefit and long-term habits, my programs are designed for a commitment of 3-6 months at a minimum to start. We will work together as long as our relationship brings you progress and value. Then we’ll re-evaluate the options as you reach your goals.
Q: Do you guarantee results?
No. I do not guarantee results that part is up to you. I can provide you with the tools and resources but if you don’t do the work, change will be slow or not happen at all.
Q: Where would I meet with my coach?
Depending on the program, coaching sessions are conducted virtually or in person.
Q: How long are the coaching session?
Each session is 60 minutes in length. I ask that you come prepared prior to our meeting with an idea of what you want to address so that you get the most of your time.
