Personal Alchemy Coaching
I work in service to transformation.
Yours. Mine. Ours.
It is possible to find your freedom. To discover the places within that are strangling your life force and to unknot the cords so that you can breathe again.
It is possible to soften into the warmth of your physical body, to let it become your trusted ally and partner in fulfilling your dreams.
It is possible to open yourself to receiving more love, more clarity, more acceptance, more joy, more compassion, more creativity, more pleasure, more aliveness.
I have been coaching individuals and groups for nearly 20 years after training as a life coach in my mid-twenties. Less than a decade later, I dove deeply into natural movement, exploring the connections between how we use our bodies and how our lives are unfolding on a bigger scale. I quickly discovered that working at this inflection point - where inner work and the body meet - is like opening a portal into a whole new realm. For my clients, it’s where the rubber meets the road. It’s where their lives get transformed.
This is the broad context I hold when I am facilitating any individual. The specifics we work on vary wildly, from client to client, from week to week. Here are a handful of outcomes my clients have experienced as a result of our work together:
~ finally living out deep desires
~ bringing their lives into alignment with who they really are
~ addressing overwhelm in the body
~ dissolving their tendency to frequently dissociate
~ successfully navigating big changes in life
~ developing much greater sexual capacity
~ easing relationship struggles or leaving unhealthy ones altogether
~ resolving health concerns or figuring out where to turn next
~ putting family of origin frustrations to rest
~ eliminating that nagging sense of stagnation
~ feeling alive in a way they never knew was possible
All of my clients are curious and have experience with initiating change in their lives. They’ve already rolled through many ups and downs and have a certain capacity for tolerating the discomforts of that. They know they are taking the plunge on something important and are willing to go deeeeeeep. They also know how to laugh.
Stepping into this work is an initiation that continues to unfold over time, drawing you further and further into your own freedom.
I’m here to support you in this most precious work.
I keep a limited 1:1 practice and this will ensure you’re the first to know when I have availability. And yes! - sometimes I have immediate openings, so please reach out if you know you want support ASAP.

She takes that vulnerability and with careful queries and thoughtful silences allows for the development of action steps that moved me forward.”
How 1:1 Personal Alchemy Coaching Works
After years of experimentation, I’ve come to the conclusion that an immersion is the best place to start, most of the time.
I offer twelve weeks of deeply personal support so that you can finally trust your body and yourself and move into the life you desire. This includes:
Weekly 1:1 sessions to give you the follow-through and consistency you need to create the life you love
Immediate access to Embodied Essentials to help unravel the layers and create immediate shifts
Personalized movement practices and embodied homework so that you can start making decisions that serve you
Text support between sessions to create the safety to keep moving
This length of time enables us to make very real headway and to begin the process of building trust and rapport. That being said, many of my clients continue working with me for years, speaking weekly (and sometimes even more frequently) or touching base once or twice a month, depending on what’s needed. This speaks to the immense value of having someone in your corner, of bolstering your life with the outside support needed to navigate the many challenges we all face.
Occasionally, I offer short-term coaching packages. This gives us a tidy container to do work with something pressing or to help you get to experience what coaching with me is like. You need to be on the waitlist to be notified about them and I’d be happy for you to add your name below!
FAQ
-
Many of my clients refer to me as their therapist because of the deeply therapeutic experience they have and because it reflects the depth of healing they find available to them. It’s true that many coaches work at a somewhat superficial layer - sticking with goals and avoiding the deep inner workings of the human. I LOVE the deep, messy parts, and travel there with my clients because it’s effective and healing. But I am also not a trained therapist. I do not make diagnoses, I am not beholden to the same boundaries that therapists must hold and there are times I must refer out when there are particular expressions of trauma or mental illness that I do not have capacity to support.
-
Sessions last one hour and are held by phone or Zoom. I listen. A lot. I reflect what I’m hearing. I might make observations. I ask a lot of questions. Sometimes, I suggest immediate movement practices or ones to do later. I’ve been known to bring my clients into visualizations or deep meditative states from time to time.
My clients talk. A lot. They share what’s going on, what’s needed, what connections are becoming clear, what they are experiencing in their bodies. They laugh (we laugha lot together). They cry. They have big ahas and little ahas. They sometimes leave with homework.
-
My schedule varies somewhat, but I generally keep hours available on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays for coaching sessions.

My 12 week immersion costs $2500. Short-term coaching packages vary and details are given when I announce them. You can sign up for the waitlist to be sure you’re in the know about all 1:1 offerings.

Sometimes, I have spots open right away! It’s always worth reaching out to check. I keep a small 1:1 practice in order to best serve my clients and in order to best serve my own body, so it can take a little bit to get started, especially as my clients often decide to keep going with regular support. :) But if you’re itching to get started and I have a spot, it’d be great to get on a call and see if we’re a good fit.
““I’ve listened to a lot of messages and read a lot of blogs. I’ve read piles of books. I’ve hired help of varying types over the years. But never have I found so much value in one person who has been given the ability to create a place of safety at the same time as gently challenging me to grow and who also brings great knowledge and skills to the same table at which she lays her own heart - offering all she is in order to help us. She’s helped me to wrestle my own demands of myself to the ground and transform those demands into dreams. She’s given me hope and focus and gentleness and love along with enthusiasm and cheerfulness and joy.” ”
