Hi, I’m Ivy!
I help people have better relationships—starting with the one they have with themselves.
My clients come to me when they’re tired of walking on eggshells, getting stuck in the same arguments, or aching for deeper connection — the kind that happens when we stop avoiding the hard stuff. I know the sting of conflict that doesn’t make sense until hours later.
Like the time my sister made a totally harmless comment and I snapped back defensively—because I was projecting my own self-judgment onto her words.
Or the countless arguments I used to have with past romantic partners that went in circles for hours because neither of us had the tools to truly listen or repair.
Those were hard moments. But they became mirrors—showing me what needed healing inside myself.
My Journey
A few years ago, I made the hardest and most self-honoring decision of my life: I walked away from an 8-year relationship with someone I loved deeply. I had spent years trying to “fix” it by working on myself — learning better communication skills, therapy, coaches, coach training, plant medicine, books and meditation — thinking that if I just got it right, we’d finally be okay.
Eventually, I realized: sometimes love isn’t the issue. Sometimes, no matter how much you care, the relationship can’t meet you where you’re going.What surprised me most was that the decision to leave wasn’t a moment of drama.
It was a moment of deep clarity. Of honoring both of us.
Of choosing to end it with love, the same way we began.And in the months that followed, I had to walk my talk in a whole new way— learning how to stay present with my own grief and self-doubt, how to trust my gut when it would’ve been easier to go back, and how to keep my heart open without abandoning myself.
That experience didn’t just change me. It refined the way I coach. Because now, I don’t just teach tools—I teach what it takes to show up with your whole heart and your boundaries intact.
Whether my clients are trying to improve an already-good relationship, navigate an ending, or work through old patterns with family or friends,
I help them get honest with themselves and and lead from their heart. And from that place—connection gets a whole lot easier.
Now, I get to teach my clients how to use difficult moments—not as proof that something’s wrong with them, but as doorways into transformation.
I blend conscious communication tools, mindfulness, and self-compassion to help you understand your patterns, feel seen and heard, and stay connected even when it’s hard.
My work is informed by Internal Family Systems (IFS), Nonviolent Communication (NVC), inner child healing, and years of both personal practice and professional training.
I’m a Mindset and Relationship Coach certified through the International Coaching Federation (ICF).
I trained for two years with Accomplishment Coaching—first as a coach, then as a mentor coach—and I’m certified in Heart Led Communication through Lead by Heart.I help my clients feel safe, seen, and supported in our work together, so they can start experiencing the life and relationships they truly desire.
