Hi, I’m Denise   

I’m a certified health and life coach helping teens and adults break free from cycles of overwhelm, anxiety, and emotional exhaustion.

And I know how it feels.

With 27 years of marriage, three kids, and a life rich in both challenges and faith, I understand what it feels like to carry the weight of everything and still wonder if you’re doing enough. I know the complexity of showing up for others even when your own cup is running dry.

Hi, I’m Denise       

I’m a certified health and life coach helping teens and adults break free from cycles of overwhelm, anxiety, and emotional exhaustion.

And I know how it feels.

With 27 years of marriage, three kids, and a life rich in both challenges and faith, I understand what it feels like to carry the weight of everything and still wonder if you’re doing enough. I know the complexity of showing up for others even when your own cup is running dry.

I’ve lived that stress cycle.

Over functioning, shutting down, pushing through, burning the candle at both ends. Trying to juggle everything while quietly wondering how long you can keep going like this.

And I also know what it takes to create a steady strength from the inside out.

My own journey led me to this work not in spite of the hard things, but because of them. The same stress responses that used to derail me became a doorway into healing. I learned how to calm my body, work with my mind, and build a life that feels like I’m actually living, not just surviving.

Now it’s my honor to walk alongside others as they do the same.

As a coach, I bring a unique blend of neuroscience-based education, emotional regulation tools, deep compassion, and lived understanding. I’ll meet you right where you are, and together we’ll build forward from there.

Whether you’re working through burnout, navigating stress, or simply trying to find yourself again, I’m here to help.

Whether you’ve been living in overdrive or feeling shut down, there’s a way back to peace.

A Little More About Me

I’m certified in nervous system resilience, health and life coaching, and pain reprocessing therapy. My faith is my anchor, and my family and friends help keep me grounded.

I have a deep love for nature. A quiet hike through the forest or the sound of a stream or waterfall is my happy place. I love podcasts, books, and TED Talks, and I’m always learning new tools to support myself, my family, and my clients. I’m also always up for a game night, a practical joke, or a night out connecting with people I love.

Music is woven into my daily life. It brings calm to the chaos, restores my spiritual strength, and helps me reset when life feels overwhelming.

I’ve always had a heart for children and youth. I believe one steady, caring adult can change a life. Everyone deserves to be seen, heard, and cheered on. The years I’ve spent mentoring and working with young people have brought me some of my greatest moments of joy.

I believe in shining a light wherever you go. In a world that feels increasingly heavy, the opportunity each of us has to bring light, to offer a smile, a kind word, or a moment of kindness, matters now more than ever.

We all have the power to make a difference, one small gesture at a time. Together, we will build a life that helps you step into the version of yourself you have been longing to become.

We will work side by side on a path forward that does not rely on perfection or pressure. Just real support, meaningful tools, and small steps that actually work.
