Life Design Coaching

Everyone is unique. There is such a wide range of difference in humans regarding to how we are wired, how our brains function and how we learn and view the world. This is called Neurodiversity.

​

Although everybody has different nervous systems and different sensory needs, one thing we all have in common is the need to take care of our own unique selves. This is a fundamental life skill. One that is rarely taught yet easily mastered.

​

My training as an occupational therapist has taught me to look at each person holistically- their physical, emotional, mental and spiritual well being and to help each person create a life that is meaningful and satisfying to them. OT's are natural coaches because coaching is also about seeing each person as whole and having the ability to learn and grow with the right support. My coaching model is based on what I have learned about brain science, the body, Sensory Integration, Polyvagal Theory, Trauma Informed Care and behavior change during my 28 year career as an occupational therapist.

​

Whether you are a women needing more self-care, a parent wanting to be more calm and confident or an adult having difficulty managing daily life, sometimes all you need is a coach to help you look at your life differently, guide you and support you to make the changes that will make you feel alive and fulfilled, and have more ease and joy in your life. 

​

​The most important idea is that in order to grow and learn the brain must be in a state of calm and safety. When the brainstem or primitive part of the brain feels safe, you have access to higher brain parts for executive functioning which include skills such as: emotional control, flexibility, organization, planning, problem solving, task initiation, time management, attention and stress tolerance.

 A Discovery Session is complimentary so you can experience the magic of coaching. During this session, you will: 

​

  1. Complete a process called the Wheel of Life and uncover the areas of your life that are causing you the most stress and loss of energy.
