Integrative Coaching
After years of working with adults in residential treatment, I learned quite a bit about the empowering (and power-full) benefits of peer support and coaching. Working along the lines of recovery focused and peer support coaching, I help clients find sustainable, growth provoking ways to lead their best lives. Often working alongside their therapist, I help support the more nitty-gritty, day to day challenges some people face. Whether due to depression, anxiety, trauma, ASD or simply because day to day life can be incredibly challenging, I seek to help find ways to make life more meaningful and purposeful. I've also discovered and seen first-hand the undeniable benefits of the asana and breath work practices of yoga. When appropriate, I love combining my love of yoga with Integrative Coaching!
