What is your educational background? I know you are a nurse but are you trained specifically in menopause?

I am a Registered Nurse with over 25 years of clinical experience with a Bachelors Degree in Nursing. I am also a certified Menopause Specialist through the Med-Fit Network.

Do you only coach Nurses?

Nope, I coach ALL women in the perimenopause/menopause transition who are looking for support, and yes nurses too!

Who do you coach specifically?

I coach all women going through the perimenopause/menopause transition who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed and want their life back! Or if you have gone through premature menopause due to a surgical procedure like a oophorectomy, or due to medication or other health conditions, yes I would love to offer you coaching.

What is the difference between a coach and a therapist?

Although both professions can help you get to a better place, therapists are trained to treat mental illness or other significant emotional and relational concerns, while coaches seek to help you with mental fitness in a specific area.

Therapists are trained mental health professionals licensed by your state, with the goal of treating mental illness. A therapist will develop a personalized mental health plan for you based on your diagnosis. They may use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, and other specific modalities of therapy.

Coaching is a collaborative approach, and a partner who provides the space, education, and support to help you understand and set goals for yourself. Coaches use deep transformation coaching, breathwork along with health and wellness interventions. RN Nurse coaches are also Board Certified by the American Holistic Nurses Credentialing Corporation (AHNCC) this is a national certification for Registered Nurses based on the training.

However, having a therapist and coach can be a great collaboration and benefit!
