This offering is especially supportive for individuals and families navigating complex journeys—such as recovery from illness, reliance on supplemental nutrition, chronic degenerative disease diagnosis, changes in eating routines. Individuals who are seeking mindful, compassionate guidance outside of clinical SLP direct therapy needs.

What This Coaching Supports:

- Emotional and motivational support during recovery or lifestyle changes
- Mindfulness and presence practices related to eating, drinking, and nourishment
- Reducing anxiety, pressure, or fear around meals and daily routines
- Supporting autonomy, dignity, and enjoyment of food experiences
- Gentle caregiver education to encourage pacing, attunement, and reduced pressure
- Cultivating trust in the body and fostering a positive relationship with nourishment
This work emphasizes listening to the body, honoring readiness, and restoring confidence, rather than pushing performance or outcomes.

What This Coaching Is Not
- To maintain clarity and ethical boundaries, wellness coaching does not include:
- Dysphagia therapy or rehabilitation
- Medical diagnosis or treatment
- Clinical swallow evaluations or instrumental assessments
- Diet prescription or medical feeding recommendations

Holistic Coach | Patient Advocacy
Practicing in acute care on front line hospital setting my whole career, my primary role was SLP, my secondary role has always been a patient advocate. I want to assist people in understanding their medical diagnoses by helping them factually document interactions and support their expression of personal goals of care to medical doctors and team. I would assist in helping family, friends, and loved ones of your personal & medical goals or rational behind your decisions. My goals are your goals, always. I am not here to take away your autonomy. I am here to support it deeply, regardless of whether that is to pursue rehabilitation or comfort/quality of life. I also help you understand the risk benefit analysis of both options. I can offer an unmatched emotional empathetic support system for you or your loved ones most vulnerable state when medically fragile in hospital setting.

Death/End of Life Doula
Also known as an end-of-life doula or death midwife, is typically a non-medical professional who provides support and guidance to individuals nearing the end of life and their families. Death doulas help to normalize the dying process and create a comfortable and peaceful environment. There is no official governing national certification to become a death doula, however I have taken continuing education on end of life care, comfort or hospice plans of care. With me, you get the best of both worlds, as medical SLP in hospital setting, I have worked closely with end of life as it related to dysphagia management and both palliative care and hospice professionals relating to advanced goal planning. In this role I would provide emotional support, education/guidance, practical assistance, vigil and companionship in dying process, provide legacy prep, caregiver and grief support. Sound healing would be incorporated during support sessions as desired!

Clients who require medical or rehabilitative services are encouraged to work with their licensed healthcare providers. When appropriate, wellness coaching may complement—but never replace—medical care.

A Holistic, Compassion-First Approach:
Grounded in mindfulness, nervous system awareness, and compassionate presence, this coaching approach recognizes that healing is not only physical—it is emotional, psychological, and relational.

Sessions are private-pay and designed to feel supportive, respectful, and empowering, meeting clients exactly where they are.
