The ARC process
Healing happens in an ARC.
Three stages, and this is the whole map. Everything I teach sits inside one of these three, whichever door you come through, so there is nothing else you need to learn before you start.
Awareness
See what’s true beneath the surface.
Regulation
Build capacity to stay present with what matters.
Creation
Act from alignment and create new outcomes.
One method, three levels of support
Choose your door
Three containers for the same work. What changes is how much company you have while you do it, and how much of my attention is on you specifically.
If you already know the pattern and want my full attention, begin with the ARC Program. The course and cohort remain open when a lighter container is the honest fit.

Before any of those, there is the Monthly Gathering, which is free, online, once a month, and has nothing hiding behind it. Come to a gathering →

The honest fit
Is this the right fit?
Choose this work when
You’re stable, you know your story, and it keeps repeating anyway.
Not the right season when
You’re in acute crisis, or you need diagnosis or treatment first. Licensed care comes before coaching.
Is this therapy?
No. Therapy looks back to diagnose and treat. I work with the present pattern and what you build next. My coaching can sit alongside therapy without replacing it.
My work is LGBTQ+ affirming and inclusive of all identities and relationship structures.
| Therapist | Trauma recovery coach | |
|---|---|---|
| Direction of the work | Often looks back: processing the past, treating the wound. | Present-focused: patterns, regulation, creation. |
| Diagnosis & treatment | Licensed to diagnose and treat mental-health conditions. | Doesn’t diagnose or treat. I refer out when clinical care is needed. |
| Licensing | State-licensed clinician. | Non-clinical. My RN background informs the work; it doesn’t make coaching medical care. |
| Insurance | Sometimes covered. | Not covered. The price is stated plainly instead. |
| Choose this when | You need diagnosis, medication, or deep processing of the past. | You’re stable, self-aware, and circling something you already understand. |
| Together? | Many people do both: therapy for the wound, coaching for the pattern. | |

Questions, answered plainly
The honest fine print
How much does trauma recovery coaching cost?
The ARC Program, twelve weeks of private coaching, is $3,000, paid in full or as three monthly payments of $1,000, and the total is the same either way. The Creation Circle Cohort, six weeks live in a group of ten, is $639. Rooted & Rising, the same six weeks self-paced, is $369. The LIVE Workshop is $197 for the in-person day and $79 for the online session. If the price is ever the only thing in the way, write to me.
Who is this work not for?
This work asks for honesty and willingness. It isn’t the right season if you’re in acute crisis, or if you need diagnosis or treatment first; licensed care comes before coaching, and I will say so plainly. And it isn’t a fit if you want the pattern named but not changed. Willingness to look at every version of yourself, with curiosity rather than judgment, is the only entry requirement.
What is the difference between a trauma coach and a therapist?
A therapist diagnoses and treats mental health conditions, often working through the past. As a coach I work present-and-forward on patterns, regulation, and creation. I’m a registered nurse, not a therapist, and I refer out when someone needs clinical care.
