Life Coaching · Beyond Therapy

Find the blind spots keeping you stuck in old habits.

Doctorate-level coaching grounded in psychology, sociology, and years of clinical practice — guiding you from insight to lasting change.

About

Life coaching that extends past therapy and treatment.

I hold a BA in both Psychology and Sociology, a Master's degree in Psychology, and a Doctorate in Psychology — with many years of practice as a certified mental health professional.

That education and professional experience equip me with a deep understanding of human behavior, motivation, cognitive process, and evidence-based strategies for change and personal growth. This is the foundation of the coaching work we do together.

My practice as a life coach extends and supports you after mental health diagnosis and treatment. I help you find the blind spots that keep you stuck in old habits — so you can move forward with intention.

The Approach

Uncover what's really holding you back.

Together, we address the hidden factors that quietly hinder personal growth — so change becomes possible, not just aspirational.

  • Self-sabotage

    Recognize the patterns that undo your progress before it takes root.

  • Maladaptive mindset

    Rewrite the beliefs that keep replaying the same outcomes.

  • The unseen barriers

    Name what has kept you from the growth you know is possible.
