Welcome to Heart Centered Counseling and Coaching With over two decades of experience in teaching and school counseling, I bring a unique perspective to therapy and coaching, rooted in dignity and a deep appreciation for the beautiful messiness of the human experience. My Approach My practice is founded on the principles of a strengths-based approach, solution focused therapy, mindfulness-informed therapy, and emotionally focused individual therapy (EFIT). These methods offer a holistic way to explore mental and emotional wellness, helping you connect with your authenticity, process your experiences, and foster a sense of balance and resilience. Whether you’re seeking support for yourself or for someone you care about, my approach is designed to meet you where you are and guide you towards a more centered and fulfilling life. Who I Serve Adults: Having a supportive guide can make all the difference. Whether you're facing personal difficulties, seeking to heal, learning to feel, or experiencing a desire for self-growth, I'm here to help you navigate through it all with clarity and confidence. Teens: You are capable and full of strength, sometimes we all just need help tapping into our inner wisdom. I provide a safe space for you to explore your thoughts and emotions, connect with your wise mind, and build a strong foundation for your future. Kids: I see children as my co-researchers. My work with children is based on learning alongside them to discover who they are, so we can build upon that identity to strengthen resilience and navigate their world with greater ease. Parent Coaching Parenting is deeply personal and therefore an emotionally laden experience. Drawing on my extensive background in schools, we’ll sort through the plethora of parenting advice that meets us at every turn and customize an approach that works for your unique family. Together, we’ll navigate the complexities of raising children from toddlerhood to adolescence. Educator Wellbeing Coaching Giving to others day in and day out can be draining. Whether you are a classroom teacher, a school counselor or a school leader, I tailor support for you and your specific experiences as an educator to allow you to truly address your wellbeing beyond the stereotypical self-care narrative. School Counselor Coaching Having supervised school counselors for the last 13 years, it has become a true passion of mine. I understand your unique role and can help you navigate the nuances of this incredible profession, without trying to sell you a program! Why Choose Heart Centered Counseling and Coaching?
