Lifestyle Coaching for Thoughtful Adults Navigating Change
I provide non-clinical lifestyle coaching for adults who want clarity, steadiness, and meaningful change—without diagnosis, pathologizing, or medical-model treatment.
My work supports people who are navigating transitions, health-related life shifts, relationship recalibration, burnout, or a growing sense that the way they’ve been living no longer fits. I help clients understand what’s happening, identify patterns that matter, and make intentional changes aligned with how they actually want to live.
What I Do
I work as a lifestyle coach, offering:
-
Education that helps clients make sense of their experiences
-
Perspective and reflection to clarify priorities and next steps
-
Support and encouragement during periods of uncertainty or transition
-
Practical guidance for building sustainable routines, boundaries, and relationships
My approach is educational, collaborative, and forward-focused. I draw from professional training and lived experience, sharing personal insights when helpful—not as prescriptions, but as examples that normalize difficulty and reinforce clients’ belief in their own capacity for change.
Who This Work Is For
This work is best suited for adults who:
-
Are thoughtful, reflective, and self-aware
-
Feel stuck, depleted, or at a crossroads
-
Are navigating life transitions, identity shifts, or health-adjacent changes
-
Want support without being diagnosed, treated, or pathologized
-
Value understanding, autonomy, and informed choice
Clients remain the authority on their own lives. Coaching supports clarity and agency—not compliance.
My Approach
My coaching philosophy emphasizes:
-
Agency over diagnosis
-
Understanding over labeling
-
Choice over compliance
-
Capacity-building over fixing
The goal is not to eliminate discomfort, but to help clients move through change with steadiness, perspective, and confidence.
Coaching vs. Therapy (Scope of Services)
Although I am a licensed psychotherapist, the services offered on this website are lifestyle coaching, not psychotherapy.
Lifestyle coaching focuses on education, insight, goal clarification, and intentional life changes. It does not involve diagnosing or treating mental health conditions, processing trauma, or providing clinical mental health care.
Psychotherapy is a regulated healthcare service with a different scope, purpose, and ethical framework. Coaching clients are not considered therapy clients.
If it becomes clear that psychotherapy or another form of clinical care would be more appropriate, I will support you in seeking those resources.
Why People Choose This Work
Clients often seek coaching with me because they want to:
-
Feel informed rather than overwhelmed
-
Feel supported without being medicalized
-
Build confidence in their own decision-making
-
Navigate change with clarity and steadiness
Coaching Services
Coaching is offered remotely to adults and may include:
-
One-on-one coaching sessions
-
Short-term support during transitions
-
Ongoing coaching for lifestyle recalibration
Specific offerings and availability are discussed during an initial consultation.
