Coaching
People often ask me who my ideal client is. Honestly, it is anyone who has that feeling. You know the one. The feeling in the pit of your stomach, or maybe in your chest, or in the tension you carry in your shoulders. The feeling that you are stuck. That you are not living up to your potential. That there is more, but right now, you cannot quite access it. This could be a mother with two young children wondering if she should return to the workforce. An impressive investment banker whose stress has started showing up in ways she can no longer ignore. A poet finally ready to seek recognition for her work.
Different lives. Different questions. Same feeling.
And that is where our work begins—not with me telling you what to do, but by getting curious about what might be keeping you from seeing possibilities that aren’t yet available to you.
Individual
This isn’t just an hour-long conversation. My approach draws from positive psychology, clinical social work, and my training in ontological coaching through Newfield Network. That means we pay attention not only to what you are thinking, but to how you are making sense of your world—the language you use, the assumptions you carry, the emotions shaping what feels possible, and what your body might be telling us.
After we meet, I review my notes (often copious), reflect on themes, and send you a written follow-up with insights, patterns, and practices to experiment with. Between sessions, I’m available for check-ins. I act as both thought partner and accountability support.
This work is structured, intentional, and deeply personal.
If you are looking for a quick hack, advice, or someone to tell you what to do, this isn’t the right fit. If you are interested in seeing yourself—and what might be possible—differently, we should talk.
Group
When I was at Penn completing my graduate work, I kept thinking: how might positive psychology improve the career advising experience? Then the light bulb went off! Group.
Not just for efficiency — although that helped — but because there is something powerful and even magical about hearing someone articulate the very thing you thought you were alone in.
When psychological safety is established correctly, when someone shares a dream, a fear perhaps, when the person you assumed had it all together admits that they don’t, there is this collective sigh of relief. There is shifting and growth. Mutual respect and sharing. There is…magic.
That’s why group work remains central to what I do.
