Our Mission
​We empower individuals to fearlessly navigate life with virtue, courage, introspection, and accountability, helping them build meaningful relationships, rebuild damaged connections, and approach dating with unwavering confidence.
Our Vision
To help build a world where everyone who wants meaningful connection can find it.
MIND
With a strong background in mental health, we fully support the integration of the most effective elements from cognitive behavior theory, collaborative problem-solving, and dialectical behavioral therapy.
​
Our commitment is to empower clients to enhance their mental fitness by developing cognitive skills that counter negative thoughts and encourage positive responses. Our mission is to help individuals identify and manage their "Saboteurs"—the negative thought patterns that create stress and self-doubt.
​
To achieve this, we focus on strengthening three essential mental skills: the Saboteur Interceptor, Self-Command, and accessing an inner sage mindset. Through this process, clients learn to face challenges with clarity and composure. With consistent practice, we assist clients in maintaining these mental skills, leading to improved performance, increased energy, and a deep sense of peace.
Ultimately, we aim to shift the balance of power in the mind, promoting a greater sense of well-being and effectiveness.
​
Moreover, we employ proven techniques to help clients craft a clear vision, set achievable goals, create action plans, and harness the power of visualization. As rational individuals, we also have the ability to practice mindfulness, fostering self-awareness and identifying the best path toward personal growth.
​
Our purpose is to act as your strategic partner—to listen attentively, provide thoughtful insights, and guide you on this transformative journey.

BODY
Trauma can have a profound impact on the body, often resulting in chronic pain, digestive issues, sleep disturbances, and hypervigilance. Those who have experienced trauma may also suffer from fatigue, cardiovascular problems, and a weakened immune system due to prolonged stress and elevated cortisol levels.
Understanding these physical manifestations is essential for seeking appropriate support and treatment to foster health and well-being.
​
Our approach acknowledges this brain/body connection and creates a space for you to grow and move forward.
We recognize that trauma affects all dimensions of well-being, and our focus is on building resilience and empowering you.
​
With specialized training, we ensure that your experience is supportive and calming. If it's appropriate we are comfortable and experienced in referring out for therapeutic assistance.
​
Beyond traditional coaching techniques, our trauma-informed coaches are trained in client regulation, the brain-body connection, and behavioral responses. They pose powerful questions to help you release feelings of shame and guilt while promoting overall wellness.
​
We want you to embark on a coaching journey that encourages resilience, and personal growth.
SOUL
At Open Heart Academy, we respect and value every client's religious beliefs and spiritual perspectives, regardless of whether they adhere to specific beliefs or hold none at all. If requested, we can integrate these beliefs into our coaching.
​
We also incorporate Stoic philosophy into our coaching approach when appropriate. Here are five key principles of Stoicism that we emphasize in our interactions with clients:
​
1. Focus your efforts solely on what you can control and avoid wasting energy on things beyond your control.
​
2. Practice self-awareness by encouraging clients to develop a deep understanding of how their thoughts and behaviors influence their relationships.
​
3. Live by and apply the four virtues—temperance, courage, justice, and wisdom—in all decision-making.
​
4. Minimize your ego while fostering self-efficacy and independent self-esteem.
​
5. View challenges as opportunities for growth.
​
Our coaching is designed to be impactful and transformative. We help clients identify what they can control, set action-oriented goals, reflect on their behaviors through the lens of the four virtues, develop self-efficacy and independent self-esteem, and build resilience in facing life's challenges and setbacks.
​
If these time-tested principles resonate with you, Open Heart Academy is the perfect fit for your coaching needs.
Dating, relationships, and divorce can be messy. I'm here to help you make it make sense, and create connection.
