Hi there!  Welcome to my site and thank you for your interest in health coaching!

I’d like to start by sharing a little bit about my approach to health coaching.  Our relationship is founded on a shared agreement that YOU are the expert in your own life, YOU get to define your idea of optimal wellness, and ONLY YOU can know what will or won’t work for you.  Bettering your health is a journey, and we approach it with the knowledge that you are fully capable of achieving all that you set your mind to – you are innately whole and capable of healing.

Together we can explore your health goals, digging into your intrinsic motivation of WHY you want to make changes, and come up with practical strategies to help you form the habits that will lead to long-term sustainable change.  By becoming conscious of your day-to-day choices, utilizing your innate character strengths, and celebrating your successes, this will be a positive process that will bring self-discovery, and help you to feel inspired to go after what you truly want in life.  The desire is for this to be a joyful transformation.

I am here to support, encourage and guide you.  I once heard the coaching relationship described as two people walking through a dark forest at night: the client is holding the map, and the coach is shining the flashlight.  I will illuminate the path, help to bring clarity to your goals so you can decide which route to take, support you as you navigate the rough patches and at times ask the hard questions to help you be real with yourself when you hit a roadblock.  Between the two of us, we will navigate a way through the trees and out into the clearing.

As I’m sure you can see, coaching is a dynamic relationship that relies heavily on your participation in your health journey.  I am excited to empower you as you take the steps to become the best version of yourself!
