Mental Health

Understanding ourselves.

Educational psychologist. Licensed therapist, Board-certified coach.

Coaching for the whole person

This isn’t just about mental health. It’s about your whole life—your career, your relationships, your energy, your purpose. Because winning in one area while losing in others is not the kind of success you want.

Enneagram facilitator

EQ and mental fitness trainer

I use the Enneagram (+ many other evidence-based frameworks) to help teams communicate better, grow through conflict, and operationalize their values.

The fear of slowing down, the guilt of not doing enough, the exhaustion of trying to keep up—it all takes a toll.
