Coaching is a dynamic partnership that moves
you toward a satisfying and healthy lifestyle.

As your coach, I support your journey through inquiry, personal discovery, goal setting and accountability with compassion, humor and yes, some straight talk — creating a realistic path to achieve your goals. We explore barriers to change and create strategies for moving forward.

I am like your “personal trainer” except the focus will be on your whole* self – your values, goals, work, balance, fulfillment, and life purpose. Simply put, I help you identify and fill the gap between where you are today and where you want to be.

People work with me when they want to take charge of their health and well being. This includes matters that everybody faces such as:

  • Exercise, Stress, Fatigue – You exercise & eat well but struggle with anxiety & sleep.
  • Nutrition, Weight – You’ve tried to lose excess weight without success.
  • Unhealthy Habits – You want to take control of unhealthy choices that lead to diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol without resorting to medication.
  • Work-Life Balance – You want to reduce and control stress while enjoying a productive life and achieve a healthy balance.
  • Life Transitions – Life has thrown you a curve ball or evolved naturally and you want to handle it with grace and ease.
  • Relationships – You want to enjoy healthy relationships with effective communication.
  • Chronic illness – You want to harness your natural abilities – mind, body and spirit – while maintaining quality of life.
  • Or simply not enough contentment – You deserve to be happy, joyful and content!

Any concern that gets in the way of taking care of your health and happiness is the perfect subject with which to begin coaching.

Can you relate to this scenario? You’re very busy, tired, and don’t have time to make the changes you know would make you feel better. You move from commitment to commitment, without a moment to consider what this constant, fast pace is doing to you. You know you should make some changes in your life, but you’re not sure where to start. You have received a lot of advice – your doctor gave you a few suggestions, you read something on the Internet, or your friends had a plan that worked for them.

My health coaching practice is grounded in the deep belief and inspiration of seeing people motivated to take action as a result of understanding how their lifestyle choices significantly impact their health. I am particularly interested in the natural biological abilities we have to heal and overcome health problems and I get immense satisfaction empowering clients to harness them.

My job as your Coach is to help you access and tap into those abilities and free you from your habits to make and sustain the changes you choose. With professional support, encouragement and insight, the result is a happier, healthier YOU – leading to a productive, successful and joyful life.

Health matters… and I want you to be healthy to the core.
