Bringing presence into each session to help clients slow down, notice what’s actually happening, and make choices from clarity rather than habit. Practical instructions and tips for paying deliberate, non-judgmental attention to the present moment, noticing patterns, creating space before reacting, and choosing intentional next steps.

Listening & Reflection

Offering attentive, non-judgmental listening that helps clients hear themselves more fully—and find their own answers in the process.

Integrating evidence-based insights into how people think, choose, and change—offering practical tools that make growth feel both achievable and grounded in real human behavior.

Extensive experience working with patients, advocacy organizations, healthcare providers and life science leaders. Trained in health literacy and narrative medicine, and excel at translating complex health information into accessible, clear language.

I draw on storytelling fundamentals to help clients uncover, shape, and express the narratives that define them—clarifying what matters, reclaiming their voice, and telling their story with honesty and confidence.

Using simple reflective exercises, metaphors, or writing prompts to spark insight, unlock perspective, and explore new ways of seeing a challenge.

Tapping into universal patterns of identity to help clients see themselves more clearly, understand their motivations, and access new ways of approaching challenges.

Drawing on time-tested principles from traditions like Ayurveda and Buddhist practice to help clients reconnect with natural rhythms, balance, and the inner guidance we often overlook.

Experience & Tools

Always exploring

Looking back at my eclectic mix of life experience and training, it's clear to me that all of this prepared me for my focus today: helping people help themselves.

I've spent decades digging into what shapes, restricts and propels us forward—our inner lives and intuition, relationships, cultures and environments. I've navigated complex, sometimes rocky terrain - family, relationships, health and career.

People have taught me the most. I collaborate with (and continue to learn from) a mix of business and advocacy leaders, and a wide range of wellness experts, including acupuncturists, therapists, yoga instructors, musicians, photographers, and filmmakers.
