My approach to coaching women is rooted in my 17 years of experience in the mental health field. My journey began as a medical technician in the Air Force. I discovered my passion during those moments spent talking to patients enduring extended stays. At that time, I was already a licensed mental health clinician, and this newfound calling led me to establish Balancing Act Life Management Services. I realized that “Life Management Services” resonated more with people than traditional “therapy.” This marked the beginning of a mission to bridge the gap in support for the every day person balancing work, life, societal stressors, and just being the complicated humans we are.
