I'm Valerie

MS, Board Certified Coach

APSATS Trainee/Certified Partner Coach-Candidate

Like most people, I have faced many challenges in my life. I struggled with infertility for 8 years before bringing home 3 beautiful babies through the miracle of IVF. I was grateful to have my hopes realized, but each experience also brought unique challenges including difficulty transitioning to motherhood, depression, a surgery, and a chronic health diagnosis. I muddled through and pressed forward but when I experienced betrayal in my marriage I felt I couldn't go on anymore. I felt like my whole world was turned upside down, and I was completely lost and disoriented. I learned that the betrayal and abuse I had endured was causing complex post traumatic stress, and I knew I needed help.

Through therapy, coaching, education and support groups, I learned how to take care of myself and my needs, to get grounded and regulate my emotions, to grieve my losses, to build a support system, to ask for help, to set and enforce boundaries, to trust myself and my intuition again, to feel empowered by making choices that were within my control, and to set goals and move forward in my life. Then I became a coach and sought specialized training so I could help other women experiencing similar trials.

Wherever you are right now, I can help you find your true self and your path forward. I can teach you the skills and tools that brought me peace and healing and growth. You don't need to stay stuck in survival mode. You were made for so much more.

More Than Survival

I created More Than Survival to be a resource for other women. My husband and I had a difficult time finding people with the right training and resources to help us navigate this journey. For years we didn't even realize there was help out there.

 

I am just getting started, but I hope to make connections in the community and bring other women together. I plan to offer groups, education, and resources. I would love to create retreats for women to get a break from life, connect with others experiencing similar struggles, and work on their healing. Let me know what you are interested in so I know where to focus first!
