First things first: coaching is not a substitute for therapy and I am not licensed to provide diagnosis or treatment for a mental health condition. If you share a need that is outside the scope of what I can safely and ethically support you with based on my trainings, I will let you know, so that you can explore alternative or supplementary supports.

Broadly, therapy is more process-oriented and looks to the past to make sense of the present. Coaching is generally more action-oriented and looks at what we can shift in the present to create a different future. Both include processing stories & feelings and developing strategies to support your overall well-being. 

If you are struggling to be present due to unintegrated trauma, therapy would be a more appropriate support. If you are able to access a foundational degree of presence and psychological safety, coaching can be a very powerful resource.

I've had many clients do therapy and coaching simultaneously, and I am frequently told that they find coaching more valuable. I think *in part* this is because coaching is action-oriented, so clients often experience a more concrete sense of growth through tangible results.

It is important to keep in mind that coaching is action-oriented, so you should have the present capacity and commitment to integrate and apply (vs accumulate) your "aha's" and takeaways into your life.

You will receive lots of encouragement, support, and strategy to make this integration doable (we love a clear action step!), and your participation is critical to this being a meaningful experience that actually reorients you.

Every client's journey looks different. We will use our Clarity Call to assess our fit and whether I am qualified to support you at this stage on your path.

As a baseline, you can expect to:

• interrupt old habituated stories and misconceptions that have likely been running your life for a long time
• actually feel like you're on your own team (think: more self-compassion, kinder self-talk, greater self-trust)
• show up aligned to your values and desires instead of your old scripts and fears (and have someone on your side, clocking and celebrating your brave steps along the way!)

I think traditional mindset coaching is insufficient to meet the moment, both because:

1. your nervous system has greater influence over your behaviors than your mind does, and
2. it often omits the reality and impact of living under unjust systems, reinforcing a personal sense of success or failure.

I have an integrative approach that combines my experience as a social studies educator and as an executive coach.

• I teach you key principles for working with your mind and your body, so that you have tools to support yourself for the rest of your life.
• I hold trauma-informed, body-based, attachment-centered, and justice-oriented lenses, which allow me to offer a very customized experience to meet your needs and preferences and support you in reaching your goals in a lasting, sustainable way.

I do not. As a solopreneur and as the primary provider for my household, financial predictability is necessary for me to run my business and life sustainably. If you select a payment plan, you are agreeing to make all payments as scheduled.

If you have hesitance about diving in fully, I do offer a 3-session package for you to be able to test the water first. Learn more in the Coaching Package section above.

This commitment of time, money, and energy is an investment in yourself. I appreciate your slow and careful yes - and I trust it.

Yes and gladly! And I do not add interest onto payment plans nor do I offer discounts for people who can pay in full.

I think putting greater financial burden on someone who might not be able to invest fully up front and offering perks to someone who has the means to pay in full both reinforce our current unjust financial system. My business is political, and I am intentional to interrupt unjust practices.
