Holistic
Coaching
Individuals & Couples · In person and online
Ongoing one-on-one and couples coaching for people ready to turn inward, listen deeply, and grow from their roots.
The whole of you, not just the problem in front of you
Most change starts with what's visible: the habit, the conflict, the decision you can't quite make.
Holistic coaching starts underneath.
Together, we notice the patterns, beliefs, and inner parts shaping how you live, and how mind, heart, body, relationship, soul, and everyday life move one another. I draw on more than 20 years of practice: guided self-inquiry, inner child and parts work, a family-systems perspective and family constellations, meditation, body awareness, and energy practices such as Reiki and Resonance Repatterning, sometimes supported by essential oils or flower essences.
Because wellbeing is whole-person, I also collaborate with a trusted network of practitioners, including naturopathic doctors, and refer when it would serve you.
There's no script. We begin with whatever you bring.
Curiosity over certainty. Listening over fixing. Trust over urgency.
Individuals
1:1 coaching is space that’s entirely yours. People often come to me when life looks fine from the outside but something inside feels out of tune, or when the same patterns keep showing up, at work, in love, or in how they treat themselves.
Sometimes a season of change has arrived. Sometimes they understand themselves well, and want that understanding to finally live in the body and in daily life.
Wherever you’re starting, we start there.
We meet weekly or every other week to start. You can begin anytime.
Couples
I often share a simple drawing with couples: two flowers, each with its own roots, and a smaller flower growing between them from where those roots meet.
That small flower is the relationship. It has no roots of its own; it grows from both of you.
So couples coaching begins with each person. We tend your individual roots, the patterns, needs, and inner wisdom each of you brings, and the connection between you begins to change. Together, you'll practice speaking honestly, listening fully, and meeting each other from who you really are, not who you've been in the old loops.
What to expect
We usually begin by arriving: a few breaths, a moment to notice what's here. From there, we follow what's alive for you, through conversation, reflection, guided practice, or quiet.
You'll often leave with something small to carry into your week: a practice, a question, homework, or simply more awareness.
Sessions are 50 minutes: in person in Albany, NY and in Portland, OR during my visits, or online.
Expect honesty, warmth, and the occasional laugh. Depth doesn't have to be heavy.
Coaching is a partnership for growth and self-discovery. It isn't psychotherapy or medical care, and it doesn't diagnose or treat any condition. If you're in crisis or need clinical support, I'm glad to help you find a licensed professional, and coaching can sit alongside that care.
Root.
We slow down and notice what lies beneath: the patterns you keep meeting, and the wisdom you may have stopped trusting. We can't release what we're unaware of.
Connect.
You come back into relationship with your body, your heart, and your inner knowing, and then with the people you love, from a more honest place.
Grow.
Change shows up quietly, in how you live: clearer choices, kinder boundaries, more presence. Growth isn't becoming someone new.
