I know what it is to live the questions.
For years, I was the woman asking:
Why does my body hurt this much?
Why am I being told this is normal?
Who can I trust?
What kind of care do I need?
Where do I even begin?
I know what it is to have pain dismissed, to search for the right doctor, to grieve infertility, and to fear what endometriosis might mean for the future.
After diagnosis, two surgeries, and a long process of healing, I began rebuilding trust in my body and in my ability to make decisions for myself. Part of that healing involved learning to relate to pain differently—not by dismissing it, but by meeting it with less fear and asking what my body might need. That shift helped me feel less powerless and more able to make choices about how I cared for myself.
Over time, other women began reaching out as they faced their own questions about pain, diagnosis, treatment, infertility, and what life might look like next.
I did not have every answer. But I understood the terrain—and the value of not having to navigate it entirely alone.
You may come to coaching with a clear goal, or only with the sense that something in your life no longer feels sustainable.
Together, we can identify what feels most difficult, understand what may be getting in the way, and choose realistic steps toward something that matters to you.
That may mean communicating your needs more clearly, sustaining a self-care practice, making a difficult decision, rebuilding trust after feeling dismissed, or responding to fear, grief, and uncertainty with less shame and self-criticism.
The goal is not to force progress or remove uncertainty. It is to help you meet your life from a steadier, more self-trusting place.
What could become different for you
My work first took shape through private therapeutic yoga sessions with women living with endometriosis. Movement often opened the door to deeper conversations about fear, grief, body mistrust, and the difficulty of caring for oneself consistently.
I began to see that insight alone was not always enough. Women also needed a steady process for identifying what was getting in the way, choosing small and realistic steps, and returning to those steps with support over time.
That combination of compassionate conversation, body awareness, reflection, and follow-through became the foundation of Mind Body Endo coaching.
How the work took shape
Like a lighthouse, I cannot remove the storm. But I can help you find your bearings.
Training and experience that inform the work
I began practicing yoga in 2002 and later trained in yoga teaching, therapeutic yoga, coaching, nervous-system education, Compassionate Inquiry, and parts-informed inner work.
My own experience of endometriosis, infertility, surgery, and recovery has shaped how I understand the space between receiving medical care and learning how to live with what the experience has changed.
Coaching sessions may include conversation, reflection, grounding, breath awareness, or gentle movement. These practices are always optional and used only when they support your goal.
I do not diagnose or treat endometriosis, and coaching does not replace medical or mental-health care. My role is to help you understand your experience, identify what may be getting in the way, and practice a grounded way forward.
