About Julie
My passion is coaching clients to become confident, successful, and strong communicators so they can achieve their highest potential. Through my experience, I have learned that cultivating a strong community is essential to this task.
I work with parents, educators, young adults, and leaders, giving each the resources they need to create healthy support systems where they can thrive. I have watched the incredible transformation that occurs when people feel seen, heard, and respected. My clients—whether adults or young people—go from feeling anxiety and self-doubt to feeling confident and empowered.
My coaching offers people the opportunity to realize that they have the power to direct their own lives, and it provides the tools they need to do it.
Professional Experience and Certifications
For over two decades, I have worked as an educator, counselor, consultant, and coach. I listen carefully to adolescents, leaders, educators, and other adults ,evaluate their needs, and design strategies that decrease stress and anxiety and improve well-being. My work is both empathetic and science based, informed by many years of research into neuroscience, psychology, and human development. I have trained with the Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching and the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence, and I am a member of the Positive Intelligence Advanced Coaching Program.
