Meet Your Coach
Professional Bio:
I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Queens College and dual Master’s degrees in Business Administration and Public Health from Stony Brook University. I’m a Certified Health Education Specialist and a National Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach.
My professional journey blends psychology, business, and public health-three fields that deeply shape my coaching approach. Psychology fuels my curiosity about human motivation, behavior change, and how people move toward lasting transformation. Business brings in strategic thinking, systems and process improvement, key to helping clients implement real change in their daily lives. And public health ties it all together with a community-centered, prevention-focused lens.
Unlike other health coaches who focus primarily on supplements, regimented diets, or cleanses, I take a holistic, mind-body approach to health and healing. I help clients understand how chronic stress, emotions, beliefs, and learned patterns can influence physical health and overall well-being.
My coaching integrates mind-body practices such as guided meditation, reflective journaling, and psychosomatic exercises to help clients cultivate greater self-awareness, regulate their nervous system, and reconnect with their body’s innate capacity for healing. Drawing on training in Pain Reprocessing Therapy and the Nerva gut-directed hypnotherapy program for digestive health, I help clients better understand the relationship between the mind, body, and nervous system.
I also incorporate Solution-Focused coaching, beginning with a clear vision of what clients hope to create in their lives. Rather than dwelling on problems, we focus on strengths, possibilities, and practical steps that support meaningful and lasting change.
My approach is further influenced by principles of Positive Psychology, Motivational Interviewing, the Stages of Change model, and evidence-based habit formation strategies, helping clients enhance motivation, build on their existing strengths, and create sustainable changes that support long-term well-being.
