About Me

My name is Tina, and I am a certified life coach with additional certifications in spiritual coaching and family and youth coaching. My goal is to help everyday people conquer everyday problems.

I began coaching in 1996 as a member of LINKS, a Marine Corps organization designed to assist military families cope with the ever-changing realities of active duty service. I retired from this position when my husband retired from the Marine Corps in 2008.

In 2011, I became a founding facilitator and coach at The Chrysalis Adventure, an equine assisted learning organizationwher I coached youth, families, teachers, other professionals, and military personnel. I continue contracting with the Chrysalis Adventure coaching a group of 6 - 8 adolescents twice a week.

In 2015, I became one of three founders of Beyond The Gate Experiential Learning Center, a coaching center based on the principles of Gestalt and Experiential Learning.

I am an equine specialist and facilitator in equine experiential learning with almost a decade of experience in the horse herd, where I pair my coaching expertise with my skills as an equine specialist. This unique blend of methods gives my coaching clients, if they choose, an out-of-the-box and out-of-the-office coaching session. Clients can partner with horses to experience equine assisted coaching for one, some, or all of their sessions.

Lastly, I am a Reiki practitioner and regularly practice the spiritual disciplines of meditation and yoga.

My goal is to help my clients with self-development, such as improved self-esteem, learning better communication skills, creating better relationships with family, friends, and co-workers, or becoming self-aware by finding authenticity, purpose, and intent in everyday life. I help my clients discover how to juggle the everyday responsibilities of work or school, home life, and personal wellness in a stress-free manner so they achieve a healthy balance in their physical, mental, and spiritual health.
