A warm hello from me to your family
Press play for a short introduction. I'll share how I work with youth, what makes coaching different, and what you can expect from our first session together.
Why families work with me
The everyday challenges I help children and teens navigate
If something on this list sounds familiar, you're in the right place. These are the moments where skills - not just reassurance - make the difference.
What makes this different
Coaching is not therapy- and that's the point
Therapy and coaching both have a place. Here's how skills-based coaching with children compares to traditional therapy.
Traditional therapy
Often diagnosis & treatment focused
- Focus on assessment, diagnosis & symptom relief
- Talk-based, processing past experiences
- Clinical setting & framework
- Often longer-term, open-ended
- Parents typically less involved in sessions
- Insurance and clinical licensing required
Children's coping coaching
Practical, skill-building & forward-focused
- Practical tools & real-life skill building
- Role-play, games & active rehearsal
- Practice between sessions, at home & school
- Nervous system regulation built in
- Parents involved when appropriate
- Goal-focused, time-bound support
My approach
What sessions actually look like
A grounded blend of child mental health expertise, children's yoga, mindfulness, and somatic tools - woven together in a way that feels playful, never clinical.
Nervous system education
Age-appropriate language so children understand what's happening in their body.
Breathwork & somatic tools
Simple practices that calm the body before the mind can catch up.
Children's yoga & movement
Movement-based regulation that's playful and physical.
Mindfulness for kids
Short, sensory practices children actually want to use.
Role-play & games
Skills are rehearsed, not just talked about.
Personalized coping plans
A toolkit your child takes into school, friendships and home.
