From Survival to Strength

My own healing led me to become a counselor. My own strength-building led me to become a coach. Today I help women do both — working through trauma with the tools of a licensed clinician, and building physical strength with the guidance of a certified trainer who understands what your body has been through.

Whether you're looking for a coach who won't push you past what's safe, a speaker who can bring real expertise to your organization, or a supervisor guiding your path to licensure — I bring the same thing to all of it: lived experience paired with real credentials.

Strength, Without Shame

If you've tried fitness programs before and felt unseen, unsafe, or like your body was just a problem to fix — this is different. As a Certified Personal Trainer and a Licensed Professional Counselor, I coach the whole person: your goals, your nervous system, your history, and your pace.

Bullet list:

  • Personalized online coaching, built around your body and your story

  • Trauma-informed programming — no triggering language, no punishment-based training

  • Direct access to a coach who is also a clinician

My Story

I'm a survivor of human trafficking. That experience — and the ten-plus years I've spent since, healing and helping other survivors heal — shapes everything I do, from the therapy room to the stage to the way I coach.
