About

Hi, I'm Stephanie —

I've watched women across generations stop recognizing the woman in the mirror. They feel like strangers in their own bodies and minds, and like the world quietly stopped seeing them. Most of them spent their whole lives taking care of everyone else. I chose this work to help them finally take care of themselves.

I often tell clients that a transition like menopause is a lot like remodeling a house while you're still living in it. For years, your coping skills, your people-pleasing, and your habit of keeping the peace held everything up. Then your hormones and your life start pushing on those walls, and what used to work can leave you exhausted. My job is to help you clear out what isn't holding you up anymore and rebuild in a way that fits you today.

You'll know I'm listening. It shows in my tone, my face, and my hands (yes, I talk with my hands). I'll explain what's going on in your brain and body in plain language, help you notice the thoughts that have been running the show, and look at where some of your patterns started. I won't tell you how to live your life. I want you to understand yourself well enough to choose what's right for you.

You'll hear me say "don't should on yourself" a lot. I should have known. I should have seen it coming. I should be handling this better. That's an unfair thing to say to anyone, and that includes you.

I also love working with couples, at any age or stage. Once you understand what's really going on underneath the conflict, it can get a lot easier to be on the same side.

Give yourself grace. It's all of our first time experiencing today.
