With over 20 years of experience in the fields of education and personal development, I am passionate about helping others grow into their whole self. As the founder of Essential Wisdom Coaching, I have developed a unique approach to guiding clients in nurturing who they are and who they were meant to be as part of the coaching process.

As each client is unique, so are the approaches used in my coaching sessions, which are based on the client’s specific situation, goals, needs, desires, and path of development - from career & academic support to finding one's life purpose, and everything in between.
Some common methods used in my coaching work are guided imagery, self-reflection, creativity, journaling, embodiment practices, meditation, symbolic artwork, eco-therapeutic modalities, and more. The emphasis is on fostering a process of growth that can gain momentum and bring more joy, growth, and balance to the client’s life.

I, too, am continuously & curiously learning and am currently working toward a Ph.D. in Integral & Transpersonal Psychology, where my research is focused on examining embodied intuition in the development, expression, and trajectory of leadership.

Growth should be an investment, not a burden. As part of my deep commitment to the accessibility of my services to a diverse clientele, I offer flexible sliding scale and/or extended payment options for all of my coaching services. Contact me for more information.

As a transpersonal coach, I take a holistic approach to facilitate growth and transformation in people who seek to nurture their authentic selves and show up more fully in all areas of life. Whether needing support in one or many areas of life, I work collaboratively with clients to bring forth their dreams, goals, and desires in their everyday life.

The first coaching session dives right into discovering the client's needs, goals, roadblocks and work through processing the next steps. Coaching involves deep questioning, reflection, and action planning. Whether it's your first or fiftieth session, there's often an a-ha moment where we tap into a hidden gem or golden nugget of insight that opens the client to take enlightened action.

Receiving support along my own healing and growth journey is what has inspired me to help others, and I believe that YOUR growth in working with a life coach is limitless! The individualized deep work that happens in coaching sessions often results in immense shifts in all areas of life in a much shorter timeframe than a DIY approach. If you are committed to your growth and development, working with a life coach is a valuable investment in your future.
