About Me

My approach to coaching comes out of a long background in human services and behavioral health. I’ve spent years working directly with people inside residential and clinical systems, often with individuals who are neurodivergent, living with disability, or trying to manage a lot of responsibility inside systems that don’t always fit how they think or what they value.
I started in direct care work, supporting people with developmental and intellectual disabilities in residential settings, and over time moved into supervisory, program management, and clinical roles. I hold a Master of Social Work degree and am a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) in New York State (licensed April 16, 2025). More than any single role, what’s shaped me most is spending a long time inside systems and seeing where they help; and where they quietly wear people down.
One thing I’ve noticed consistently is that many people aren’t struggling because they lack insight, motivation, or effort. They’re struggling because they’re trying to function within expectations that are misaligned, excessive, or never really questioned in the first place. That perspective carries directly into how I coach.
I tend to work best with people who are thoughtful and capable, but burned out. Many are neurodivergent, in helping professions, or carrying a kind of moral or emotional fatigue that builds over time. Often they’ve already tried tools, strategies, or advice that were supposed to help, but instead left them feeling more pressured or self-critical.
My coaching isn’t about optimization or pushing through at all costs. It’s about slowing things down enough to reduce overwhelm, restore some clarity, and build forms of structure that are actually sustainable. We spend time sorting out what’s genuinely required from what’s been inherited, imposed, or internalized, with the aim of finding a way forward that doesn’t require constant self-override.
I don’t offer quick fixes or high-pressure motivation.
