Meet Ellen — Your Catholic Coach & Companion

For over 30 years, I have gently walked alongside women in the field of mental health, listening to their stories, honoring their struggles, and witnessing their strength. As a holistic Catholic coach, I now bring that same compassionate understanding into my life, leadership, and health coaching programs. Beyond my professional experience, I come to this work as a woman, wife, mother, and friend. As a Catholic wife of 33 years and mother of two grown sons, I know intimately the tender terrain of empty-nesting, caregiving, career shifts, health challenges, and grief.

As women, we so often carry the weight of competing priorities alone—holding together family, work, faith, and the needs of everyone around us while quietly setting our own hearts aside. My programs are designed to offer the sisterhood, love, and acceptance women truly need to thrive, feel seen, and bloom into the fullness of who God created them to be.

Suffering is not a problem to be solved — it is an invitation to pruning and transformation. Through prayer, community, and proven coaching frameworks, I help women rise from self doubt to confident leaders in their homes, parishes, and communities.
