Experienced Registered Nurse and Health Coach dedicated to mental wellness.
What I'm looking for
With over 20 years of experience in primary care and mental health, I am a Registered Nurse and Health Coach passionate about delivering empathetic and culturally competent care. My journey has equipped me with the skills to provide trauma-informed counseling and behavioral change support, empowering clients to achieve their wellness goals.
Throughout my career, I have successfully guided individuals through stress management, chronic mental health conditions, and personal recovery programs. My proficiency in remote therapeutic delivery through telehealth platforms allows me to reach diverse client groups, ensuring that everyone receives the support they need, regardless of their location.
As a lifelong learner, I continuously seek to enhance my skills and knowledge, recently completing certifications in TEFL and various health-related fields. I am committed to fostering a supportive environment where clients feel heard, valued, and motivated to pursue their health and wellness journeys.
