What is stress resilience? It’s a learned quality that enables better coping with everyday micro-grinds and chronic concerns that keep our hearts, minds, and bodies in a constant state of elevated distress. In contrast to being “stress-resistant”, we learn to shift how we relate to our stress so that we grow in healthy ways that keep us steadily moving forward as our best selves (despite the challenges of our circumstances). It means more smoothly navigating the stream of life without being overwhelmed by it. It means being intentional about the choices we make because we have the mental space to understand their impact.

I use a ResiLIEnt framework to help clients better regulate their energy, effectively use evidence-based strategies, gain insight, and change how they function. They stop self-sacrificing, procrastinating, and engaging in other brain-wiring tendencies and mindsets that repeatedly throw them off track and create exhaustion. They develop more successful ways of managing uncertainty and tapping into their natural capacities effortlessly. They become the person they need (the one they are for everyone else).
