In my free time, I volunteer for the Harriet Hancock LGBT Center as a volunteer staff members, and supporting operational goals. Below are the mission and values of my coaching practice.

—
My mission is to help individuals on their journey to holistic wellness by providing culturally appropriate, evidence-based and trauma-informed support. I’m committed to recognizing and addressing how social determinants and oppressive systems play a role in our abilities to make individual healthy choices.

I’m driven by values because of my identities and experiences as a queer, cis-female, who is also a survivor of childhood trauma and domestic violence. I recognize the privilege I have as well as the barriers I still face. My strive to unlearn and relearn everyday as I live in our inequitable systems.

*Authenticity and Collaboration*
I prioritize building genuine, trust-based relationships with clients. Through authenticity, I aim to create a safe, open and honest environment, fostering sincere connections where individuals can show up as their whole selves and grow. I also strive to build relationships with other practitioners to ensure scope of practice is maintained.

*Justice and Ethics*
I celebrate diversity and commit to serving clients of all backgrounds and ensuring that coaching is culturally sensitive and inclusive. This also means that I’m dedicated to being anti-racist and leaning into educating myself on my own biases.

*Well-being*
I believe in the interconnectedness of physical, mental and emotional health. Coaching focuses on addressing the whole person, promoting balance and resilience in all areas of life.
