Hi, I’m Megan.
I offer trauma-informed, integrative coaching rooted in compassion, pacing, and respect for each person’s lived experience. My work supports sustainable growth, nervous-system awareness, and reconnection to self — without pressure to change faster than feels safe.
I believe healing and growth happen most naturally when people feel supported, resourced, and in choice. My role is not to direct or fix, but to walk alongside — offering structure, reflection, and tools when they’re welcome.
What Shaped My Approach
My path into this work grew from lived experience, professional training, and years of listening closely—to myself and to others. I’ve learned that meaningful change doesn’t happen through pressure or force, but through safety, trust, and the ability to move at a pace that honors real life.
I work with many women who have spent years pushing through exhaustion, illness, grief, or chronic stress. That experience shaped my commitment to trauma-informed and chronic-illness-aware support, where regulation comes before exploration and choice is always centered.
I don’t believe in fixing people or prescribing solutions. My role is to offer steady presence, structure when it’s helpful, and space for reflection—so each person can reconnect with their own wisdom, needs, and direction over time.
Growth becomes sustainable when it’s rooted in safety and self-trust.
How I Work
My work is client-led and gently structured. Sessions begin with space to check in, name what’s present, and acknowledge what you’ve been carrying—without pressure to perform or arrive with answers.
-
Sessions are collaborative, not directive
-
Regulation and safety come before deeper exploration
-
Tools are offered, never assigned
-
Pace adapts to health, energy, and capacity
-
You remain in choice throughout the process
Foundations of My Work
My work is rooted in the Phoenix Rising approach, a trauma-informed and chronic-illness-aware framework that prioritizes safety, regulation, and choice. Rather than forcing change, we build the conditions that allow meaningful change to emerge.
The RISE pathway provides a gentle structure to this work—beginning with regulation and foundational wellness, moving into awareness and emotional intelligence, and later exploring inner child work, shadow work, purpose, and spiritual development as capacity allows.
This is not a linear program or a one-size-fits-all process. The framework exists to support you, not to rush or define you. We move at a pace that respects your nervous system, health, and real life.
Grounded in Practice
My work is shaped by years of experience supporting individuals through transition, emotional complexity, and seasons of deep change. I bring together structured coaching frameworks, trauma-informed practices, and chronic-illness awareness to support growth that is sustainable and self-directed.
My background includes training in transformational coaching and education, with continued learning in emotional intelligence, mindfulness, nervous system regulation, and reflective practices. I work ethically within clear boundaries and do not diagnose or treat mental health conditions.
I believe credibility comes from both professional grounding and lived experience. I am committed to ongoing learning, consent-centered facilitation, and honoring each person’s autonomy throughout their process.

Not currently in a place to engage in reflective or self-led work
Readiness can change over time. If this approach doesn’t feel like the right fit today, that doesn’t mean it won’t be supportive in another season.
How I Hold Space
I don’t believe in fixing people. I believe in creating the kind of space where you can hear yourself again, feel your feet on the ground, and begin making choices that actually honor your life.
My work is shaped by lived experience, years of holding space for others, and a deep respect for the nervous system, the body, and the pace of real healing. I work in a way that is trauma-informed, chronic-illness aware, and rooted in compassion rather than urgency.
If you’re here, it’s likely because something in you is ready for support — not pressure, not perfection — just a place to land and begin.
