Gentle and fierce.
Both at once.
I'm Amy — a certified Integral Coach, known for one thing above all: making you feel completely at ease from the very first conversation. I approach our work with warmth and create a safe, open space where you can show up fully — even the parts you don't usually show — and be received without judgment.
Clients describe our work together as a true collaborative partnership. Deep, honest, and grounded in your values. I'm not here to fix you — I'm here to help you see what's already there, remind you of who you are, and walk beside you as you build the life you truly want.
My life experiences might sound like yours — the effects of childhood trauma and its repercussions, the pain and growth that come from navigating various family structure transitions.
Learning to make friends with my emotions and reactive patterns, and developing the discernment to understand their wisdom by learning to quiet the noise in my mind — I'm a dedicated Buddhist practitioner. Becoming comfortable with the parts of me that are different from others, especially when they stand out. I've learned to trust myself in high pressure interpersonal dynamics while maintaining my creative mind, working as a chef for over 20 years in international luxury hotel corporations.
I'm deeply familiar with various women's issues, as well as working with men around healing from the ways patriarchal systems affect us all.
I've sat with the uncertainty of career path and the anxiety of "what's next." I've faced real discomfort and fear around money, and have finally harnessed my own empowerment around finances.
