Transform Your Journey
Experience the power of integrated expertise: Clinical Psychology, Business Education, and Professional Coaching combined to create transformative results
Individual Coaching
Are you happy being you? Are you navigating unfamiliar territory? Together, we'll explore what stands between you and success - whether it's long-held beliefs, others' opinions, motivation, skill, or fear.
- Are you honoring what you bring to the table and what others bring?
- Are you learning and growing in your ability to build a great team?
- Is there emotional baggage from the past that gets in the way?
- Are you ready to dig deep, deeper, and deeper still?
- Think of me as your thinking and accountability partner, your teacher.
Entrepreneur Coaching
Starting a company is not for the faint of heart. It takes guts, spirit, persistence, resourcefulness, curiosity, and creativity. Mental health is a competitive advantage.
- What is your stress management style?
- Who makes up your support group?
- How do you communicate to facilitate collaboration?
- How do you handle difficult conversations and decisions?
- Are you managing the emotional roller coaster of entrepreneurship?
Executive Coaching
Self-awareness and authenticity are foundational building blocks of great leaders. Mastery and peak performance in any endeavor require great coaching.
- Are you in the sweet spot where competency, passion, and personality overlap?
- How do you establish genuine connections with customers and teams?
- Are your interpersonal skills matching your position's demands?
- Is your technical expertise aligned with your management role?
- Are you ready to enhance your leadership impact?

A Uniquely Integrated Approach
Drawing from three distinct disciplines to deliver comprehensive solutions for complex challenges
Clinical Psychology Foundation
Deep understanding of human behavior, emotional patterns, and psychological principles to address complex personal and professional challenges. This clinical expertise allows for nuanced insights into individual and team dynamics.
Business Education & Experience
Formal business education combined with real-world experience provides practical insights into organizational dynamics, leadership challenges, and strategic decision-making. This business acumen ensures solutions are both psychologically sound and commercially viable.

"What sets our approach apart is the seamless integration of clinical psychology expertise, business education, and professional coaching. This unique combination allows us to address challenges from multiple perspectives, creating more comprehensive and effective solutions for our clients."
Consulting Services
For Startup Teams & Family Businesses: We assess and capitalize on strengths in individuals, teams, and systems, clarifying and addressing team dynamics while supporting inevitable conflicts.
Investors & Startup Teams
No amount of awesome ideas will ever overcome a fundamentally flawed management team. Especially in the early stages of startups, it's all about the people. I help assess and understand individual dynamics and team performance potential.
Advisors to Family Businesses
As a psychologist, I can quickly read and clarify the dynamics of individuals and family systems. I help identify where advisory activities will have the most impact and where intervention may be less effective.
Common Questions
Is coaching the same as therapy?
No. Therapy assumes symptoms and a diagnosis. It often focuses on the past. Coaching is a future goal oriented process.
How long does it take?
There is no 'right' timeline for success. While many clients engage me for six months as a starting point, this will be tailored to your specific goals.
How do we work together?
You and I decide together what is the best course of action for you. We might start with an assessment instrument, or we might not. All sessions are conducted via Zoom video conferencing, providing convenience and flexibility while maintaining the personal connection that's essential for our work together.
What makes your approach unique?
I combine clinical psychology expertise with practical business experience, offering a unique blend of deep psychological insight and pragmatic solutions for real-world challenges.
