About Me
Hi I'm Maria! I believe that growth is lifelong - and that even life’s most challenging transitions can become powerful turning points. As a holistic health and life coach, my work is rooted in supporting individuals in building lives grounded in clarity, resilience, and wellbeing.
My professional experience begins with a bachelor's and master’s degree in education, and a decade of experience working with elementary aged kids, where I learned and trained others in trauma-informed care and developed a deep understanding of human development, learning, and personal growth. I have since expanded my expertise through certifications in health and life coaching, meditation and mindfulness, and positive psychology. This integrative background allows me to approach each client as a whole person - honoring the connection between mind, body, and spirit while providing practical, evidence-informed tools for lasting change.
In my coaching practice, I support individuals navigating life transitions - whether that’s a career shift, relationship change, parenting evolution, burnout, or a desire for deeper alignment. My approach blends holistic wellness practices, mindset work, and compassionate accountability to help clients cultivate confidence, emotional resilience, and sustainable habits. I believe transformation doesn’t come from pushing harder - it comes from reconnecting with your inner wisdom and building supportive systems that align with your values.
When I’m not working with clients, you can find me practicing yoga, writing, exploring local parks and trails with my family, or getting cozy with a good book. These simple, grounding moments remind me daily of the importance of balance, presence, and connection — values I bring into both my personal life and professional work.
At the heart of everything I do is a belief that wellbeing is not a destination but a practice — one built through small, intentional steps. I’m honored to walk alongside those ready to step into growth, healing, and meaningful change.
