I’m The Self-Awareness Coach. I help people hear themselves.
Because when you can hear yourself clearly, you start making choices that help you lead yourself forward.
That’s the power of self-awareness and I help you harness it.
I created The Self-Awareness Visualization Method after years of trying to fix myself from the outside in.
It’s simple, powerful, and surprisingly effective.
I created this method after years of trying to manage anxiety, burnout, and grief using surface-level strategies.
Nothing worked until I started working with my subconscious and finally learned how to hear myself.
Self-awareness is the bridge forward. Visualization is the tool that builds it.
My approach is shaped by research in neuroscience, psychology, and hypnotherapy. Explore how your brain responds to practices like visualization and internal awareness and how these tools can support real, lasting change from the inside out.
Researchers found that mentally rehearsing actions activates the same motor pathways as physically doing them, leading to measurable brain changes.
-Pascual-Leone et al. (1995), Harvard Medical School
What it means for you: When you visualize change in session, your brain treats it like reality. You're not just "thinking about it" you're creating new neural connections that support lasting transformation.
Neuroimaging shows that guided imagery lights up the amygdala and hippocampus regions tied to emotional processing and memory consolidation.
-Kosslyn et al. (2001), Harvard University
What it means for you: By engaging your emotional brain, imagery helps you reframe how you feel, so you can move forward with clarity and less emotional weight.
Meditation and internal imagery reduce overactivity in the Default Mode Network (DMN), which is linked to rumination and repetitive self-talk.
-Brewer et al. (2011), Yale University
What it means for you: These practices help you step outside of old mental loops and connect with a calmer, more self-aware version of yourself.
Visualization activates the prefrontal cortex (planning), motor cortex (movement), and parietal lobes (spatial awareness), reinforcing neural pathways before you even act.
-Cumming & Williams (2012), Journal of Imagery Research in Sport and Physical Activity
What it means for you: By visualizing success, you're preparing your brain to respond with confidence in real-life situations.
MRI scans show that hypnosis increases activity in the anterior cingulate cortex (focus), insula (internal body awareness), and thalamus (sensory processing), creating a distinct brain state.
-Oakley & Halligan (2013), Trends in Cognitive Sciences
What it means for you: You're not pretending or playing along in sessions, your brain is actively changing in session, opening up to new beliefs, behaviors, and ways of being.
Body-based imagery activates the insula and somatosensory cortex, helping the brain access and reinterpret stored bodily memories and sensations.
-Simmons et al. (2006), Nature Neuroscience
What it means for you: Even if you can’t name exactly what's wrong, your body holds the clues. These practices help you reconnect with your inner world safely and begin to release what no longer serves you.
You don’t need to come prepared with a plan. You don’t need to explain your whole life story. You just need to show up and we’ll go from there.
Sessions are held on Zoom or in-person by request.
We'll use guided imagery to slow down the mental noise without pressure or over processing.
I’ll guide you through a visualization process using scenes, symbols, and gentle prompts to help you tune in and move forward.
Life might feel great, or something might feel off either way, this is for you.
