L.A. founded Sea-Change Health & Wellness on a simple belief: real transformation happens when clinical depth meets genuine, compassionate care. The practice's name is drawn from Shakespeare's The Tempest — a symbol of profound, positive change — and that idea shapes every part of how L.A. works with clients.

As a therapist, mindset coach, team consultant, speaker, and author, L.A. blends clinical therapeutic training with performance coaching methodology to offer holistic support for individuals, couples, families, athletes, and teams. The work is grounded in helping people release guilt and regret, and reconnect with who they authentically are.

L.A. is an EMDR Certified Therapist and a certified Daring Way™ Facilitator trained directly in Brené Brown's research on vulnerability, courage, and shame resilience — bringing that same rigor and honesty into every session, workshop, and consultation.
