My approach

Can you be a successful woman and not burn out?…

Can you arrive at midlife without the nagging feeling that your life should be more meaningful?

The answer is yes, but this becomes impossible if we stay in our head, avoiding our body and being confused about our emotional world.

My approach radically differs because I am unafraid to speak about our secret. This unspoken problem is that many women close to their midlife with a successful career and a life that looks “good” on paper” have a nagging gut feeling of dissatisfaction that won’t go away.

My coaching is a whole-person approach to finding this nagging defeat’s root cause. It looks at how all areas of your life are connected to your response to stress and the decrease of meaning and connection.

Things like

- Stress in your job or your relationship causes you to overeat.
- Lack of sleep or low energy prevents you from exercising.
- Developing gut, hormonal, or other issues after thriving for a long time.
- Feeling that parts of you want to isolate and hide from the world while others feel lonely and want company.
- Your busy schedule makes you angry, depressed, or anxious.

These many aspects of your biology and personality have been helping you survive. In this work, you’ll have immense clarity on how these different agendas interact in your life. We will progressively expand your intelligence to encompass your entire nervous system and emotions, look at all these “inne” roles” to “help you gain understanding, reconfigure internal conflicts, and build inner peace and clarity.

Here are some health and somatic therapy concepts that we will explore together:

Nervous System Regulation and Applications of Polyvagal Theory:

Calibrating your nervous system is imperative to recover your sense of well-being, energy, and balanced emotions. The practices of breath-initiated movement, vagal toning, and applications of polyvagal theory to yoga are some of the practical means I use to help my clients. These practices reduce the onset of the fight, flight, freeze, or fawn response that most modern humans regularly trigger. I apply these tools in a way that allows the individual to build their practice to the point that it becomes a lifestyle. The results go from a calmer mind to healthier health markers such as heart health or hormonal balance and, of course, harmonious relationships at work and home.

Somatic Parts and Internal Family Systems Work:

IFS is an evidence-based therapy used to understand personal and intimate relationships and step into life with confidence, calm, compassion, clarity, curiosity, and connectedness. IFS is frequently used as a psychotherapy, helping people by accessing and healing their protective and vulnerable inner parts (commonly called inner children). In this work, we create connectedness by helping you first access your authentic Self and, from that core, understand and unburden your system from taxing survival patterns and beliefs. With the somatic application of this model, we do this using bottom-up (from body to brain) tools such as breathing, movement, sound, and safe touch. With Somatic parts work, the Self is restored to its leadership position to bring harmony to the person.

Individualized Health Coaching:

In this hectic world, many of us fail to meet the minimum recommended combination of healthy food, rest, movement, human connection, and play. Falling short of the optimum nourishment regularly puts women in a difficult position because stress can deplete our bodies, affecting essential functions. That is why I support my clients in recovering their strength and energy with health coaching. This includes helping you make changes or holistically applying your health provider’s health recommendations. Or, if you feel disenfranchised by your current doctor, we can build your winning team of health experts. Similarly, you can introduce high-quality, organic, non-GMO superfoods, gut repair blends, and key supplementation based on your unique needs. This nourishment-centered approach can restore the body, brain, and nervous system to skyrocket your journey.
