Certified Neuroscience • Neuropsychology • Life Coach
Certified Neuroscience • Neuropsychology • Life Coach
Trauma-Informed Neuroscience Life Coach
I specialize in attachment styles, trauma patterns, family dynamics, nervous system regulation and the subconscious mind. I help you understand why your brain keeps returning to the same patterns, then teach you practical ways to retrain them. My approach combines neuroscience, lived experience and compassionate coaching to help you build healthier relationships, stronger boundaries and greater self-trust.

HOW PROJECT JOY WAS BORN
I’ve always been the girl who feels everything. From a young age, I learned to read a room, notice tiny shifts in behavior, and recognize patterns in people and relationships before I had words for what I was seeing.
I’m a two-time breast cancer survivor who has lived through trauma, loss, heartbreak, complicated family dynamics, major health challenges, neurodivergence, Bipolar II, and plenty of rebuilding.
In 2022, I created Project Joy™ as a mental-health support community, bringing professionals and people together for education, connection and peer support. After major neck surgery forced me to pause, Project Joy evolved with me.
I began studying the science behind the patterns I had spent my life noticing: attachment, trauma, the subconscious mind, nervous system regulation, relationships and human behavior. I pursued certifications in neuroscience, neuropsychology and life coaching and turned what I learned, and what I lived, into the work I do today.
Project Joy is where science meets real life. I help you understand what your brain learned, recognize the patterns running on autopilot, and practice new ones that better fit the person and life you’re building.
