What This May Look Like
I empower women to feel they can change or leave systems in which they feel less than.
We’ll work together one-on-one for 50-minute appointments, after an initial 30-minute goodness of fit meeting, where you’ll be able to focus exclusively on you in the comfort of your home or office (or anywhere else that’s private and confidential) using a secure teleconferencing platform.
I work with coaching clients in over 40 states.
Pursue self-enrichment and achieve your goals through reflection on your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Using a strengths-based approach we will identify values and opportunities for growth. We will have a strong focus on your goals and desired coaching outcomes.

What The Research Says
Coaches with an academic background in psychology and/or the social sciences of human behavior are more effective in terms of facilitating greater increases in coachees’ self-awareness and job performance.
Coaching Specialties
I support women in their:
- Processing experiences and engaging in self-care around diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility issues in professional settings.

- Self-advocacy and career achievement in professional/medical settings. We focus on your specific needs related to wellness, burnout, compassion fatigue, and institutional moral injury.
It is important to ditinguish coaching from therapy. Coaching and therapy are separate types of treatment and we will only engage in one of those treatments. In our free goodness-of-fit appointment we can mutually decide which one (coaching or therapy) feels like the best fit.
Frequency/Duration
I am dedicated to helping my clients be empowered and to do so quickly. I find that 6-8 appointments is often what we need, though we’ll collaborate to develop a plan that’s specific to you.
I work with women clinicians through various stages of their career. Whether you’re starting out in your career or thinking about retirement in the next few years, I understand that there are unique challenges that present at each of these career stages. Clients must be older than 18 years of age.
How We Do Our Work
I currently work with coaching clients in PSYPACT Participating States.
How Do I Choose Between Coaching And Therapy Services?
Coaching and therapy are both goal focused, however how we meet those goals will be different. Coaching appointments are often short-term (can be as brief as one appointment) and do not involve clinical assessment/formal diagnosis.
Therapy often includes multiple appointments, though the amount and frequency of these appointments will be mutually negotiated by both of us and we will discuss diagnoses and related evidence-based treatments.
If you are not sure, this is what the initial goodness of fit 30 minutes conversation can help provide clarity on and why there is a fee. I value both your and my time.
