What Life Coaching Can Help With

Are you ready to let go of people pleasing, perfectionism, or the pressure to constantly do more?

-
Do you want to strengthen your relationships, which can include becoming kinder to yourself?

Do you want to navigate conflict and set boundaries with the confidence to be firm and respectful?
-
Do you want to make more progress on an important goal or dream — or are you feeling especially ready to prioritize what your heart and soul have been yearning for?
Life Coaching covers many areas of personal growth and self-discovery, including our interests and life goals, relationships, health and well-being, trauma recovery, and how connected we feel to our own emotions and body. It also includes life challenges and transitions, such as loss, breakups, divorce, and hormone and body changes.

WHY
life coaching?
The Power Behind My Coaching Approach
Through my own growth journey, client work, and conversations with fellow professionals and leading experts, I’ve come to see that true transformation requires us to pay attention to both our bodily experiences and the quality of our relationships (with ourselves, others, and life) within the coaching process. This is because, as humans, we are wired neurobiologically, mentally, psychologically, and socially as part of one interconnected system. We’re not isolated thinking minds built only to perform, and we can’t simply will ourselves — or others — to transform.
So when we consistently overlook either of these two essential aspects and rely only on mental effort to push ourselves to act or change, we limit our life potential. We might appear productive, positive, or healthy — but those results are often partial, unsustainable, or even inauthentic. But by reconnecting with our bodies and embracing our relational nature, we can access the deeper sources of our authenticity, inner wisdom, power, and resilience. It’s from this deeper place that growth, real change, and optimal outcomes become not only possible — but inevitable!
I weave these two essential aspects throughout my coaching, based on the five core modalities I specialize in, to help create the conditions needed for lasting change:
RELATIONAL
How we connect to ourselves, others, the world, and the work (and play!) we engage in
SOMATIC
How we attune to our inner bodily experiences and nervous system's needs for safety and connection

Happy Clients
MAKING MEANINGFUL Change!
"Jenna has helped me prioritize and work through some really tough obstacles in my life. She provides comfortable and conversational sessions and gives a genuine feeling of understanding. She has helped me grow as a person by showing me tools like vulnerability and compassion. I have used what she has shown me in my work, interpersonal relationships, and even with my children. I feel like I have gained so much from my time with Jenna and it has been a worthy investment."

" I have been seeing Jenna for about a year now and would highly recommend her to anyone... I did talk therapy for years and always felt like I reached the same plateau of becoming aware of patterns of difficulty in my life...but I never felt like I was getting sufficient tools for how to handle them. Every session, Jenna gives a few different tools...that I feel comfortable using on my own before we end. She…knows when I can be pushed and when I need extra patience. Cannot recommend her enough!"

HOW I USE
trauma-informed coaching
Overwhelming life experiences can shape the patterns we develop to cope, relate, and respond — and those patterns can often get in the way of the changes we want now.
We all need the right support to shift these patterns. I’m happy to help you explore whether coaching is a good fit for you, either on its own or alongside therapy, as the two can often work beautifully together.
