Launching My Executive Coaching Practice for Mental Health Professionals
After years of walking alongside others as a therapist, supervisor, educator, and leader, I’m thrilled to announce the official launch of Waves of Change—an executive coaching practice created specifically for mental health professionals ready for more.
This launch is more than just a business milestone. It’s personal.
Why Executive Coaching? Why Now?
If you’re anything like me—and like so many of the clinicians I’ve mentored—you didn’t get into this field because it was easy. You got into it because you care. You believe in transformation. And you’ve helped others change, often at the cost of your own well-being.
But here’s what I’ve learned: Therapists are allowed to want more. More alignment. More creativity. More freedom. More leadership. More peace.
That’s where executive coaching comes in.
Executive coaching is not therapy. It’s not supervision. It’s something else entirely: A partnership focused on your goals, your growth, and your next chapter.
Who Waves of Change Is For
Waves of Change is for the therapist who feels stuck, burned out, or ready to evolve. It’s for the clinical director who has mastered management but lost connection to meaning. It’s for the professor, the group practice owner, the tech startup therapist, the supervisor—anyone in the mental health space who wants to move with more intention.
This practice is grounded in lived experience. I’ve been in the burnout. I’ve navigated the toxic systems. I’ve led teams, taught students, advocated in boardrooms, and made hard pivots. And now, I coach others to do the same—with courage, strategy, and care.
What You Can Expect
At Waves of Change, we offer:
- 1:1 executive coaching for mental health professionals in transition
- Small-group coaching cohorts for burnout recovery and leadership growth
- Workshops and speaking engagements on boundaries, systems thinking, and reinvention
- Specialized coaching intensives for those seeking clarity or a complete pivot
This isn’t about pushing you to grind harder or monetize your passion. It’s about getting clear, getting grounded, and getting unstuck.
The First Step
I’ll be sharing more about our offerings, events, and insights here on the blog. But for now, if something in this resonates—if you’re riding your own wave of change—I invite you to reach out.
Your next chapter doesn’t have to look like the last one.
Let’s write it together. Contact wavesofchange.co to schedule.
