In addition to being the founder of Navigating U, I am also a counselor, coach, speaker, author, consultant, and parent.

From a very young age, I have been dedicated to helping people. People often tell me that after working together, they are better.

As a coach and a counselor, the best moments in my life are when I witness transformative and expansive moments – shifts that somehow collapse time, wash away the burdens, and instantly create a lightness.

I live for these moments with people. I am deeply committed to creating moments and holding spaces that allow people to discover and express their true selves.

Wherever you are on your journey, you’re not alone.

If you’ve been feeling anxious, stressed out, sad, stuck, frustrated, tired of conflict, or uncertain about transitioning into adulthood or midlife — you’re in the right place. Navigating U can help you ignite change and see real results through counseling, coaching, or consulting:
