Coaching is a collaborative process to help us to realize our best selves in our professional and personal lives. The ever-increasing professional demands, associated stress, uncertainty, changes in our job and role can present challenges, dilute our voice and agency and set us up for burnout. The coaching relationship provides a safe and reflective space to reconnect, reaffirm and reengage our strengths, aspirations, values and purpose. Through coaching strategies, we can become more pro-active and intentional, in seeking what matters most. We can craft practical solutions, identify effective paths forward, and design strategies for addressing potential road- blocks. The result is a roadmap that helps us to successfully achieve desired goals, aspirations and positive growth. 

For over 30 years, I have been a frontline MGH physician and medical educator at Harvard Medical School. I currently practice with the Lifestyle Medicine Program, Mass General Cancer Center, Survivorship Programs and am also a group leader for the PAVING the Path to Wellness program. As part of my broad teaching portfolio, I also co-direct a course through University of Chicago on crafting your next chapter. 

Through my work over the years in women's health, chronic disease management and care redesign, I have had the opportunity to collaborate with many of you. I see firsthand a strong professional community with boundless energy, talent, and commitment waiting to be harnessed. From 2015-2019, I served as one of your physician representatives and advocates on the MGH- MGPO executive committees and have been involved with a number of leadership training, educational and care initiatives.

I believe that my background can be particularly helpful for coaching around career enhancement at any stage, leadership development, navigating transitions, creating your next chapter, and enhancing work-life balance. I look forward to working with you to unleash possibilities, support goals and help to reaffirm your voice and agency.
