Welcome to Soma Lotus, where Executive Leadership meets Wellness Transformation. At Soma Lotus, I offer an array of strengths-based services ranging from Gallup Strengths coaching to culturally attuned counseling for the high-achieving professional, and practical start-up consultation to support navigating the process with clarity and confidence.
"Soma Lotus is more than a name. It is a philosophy. "
From the Latin of sōma, Soma means “the body as a sacred vessel,” reflecting the integration of intellect, emotion, and lived experience; in particular, for professionals whose outer success often masks inner exhaustion. The Lotus flower is an ancient symbol of rebirth and resilience, growing in the mud yet blooms with clarity and grace. It reminds us that transformation often emerges from tension and disruption, which often occur at the executive level.
Here at Soma Lotus, I honor the whole person behind the title, offering strengths-based, culturally attuned services for high-functioning professionals, healers, and leaders.
Through Gallup Strengths Executive Coaching, we uncover and activate your natural talents for authentic leadership. In Therapeutic Counseling, I provide a grounded, affirming space to explore burnout, identity, and the pressure to perform. With Consulting & Clinical Supervision, I offer pragmatic support for those navigating the mental health field or launching purpose-driven practices.
At Soma Lotus, you will find that strategy meets the soul. Structure meets softness. And you will recognize that you no longer have to carry it all alone, but with me in tow.
Welcome to a safe space designed for you and your becoming.
