What Is Coaching?
A Different Kind of Support
Coaching is not about giving you a rigid plan or telling you what to do. It’s about guiding you to uncover your own solutions, helping you build sustainable habits, and giving you the support you need to move forward—on your terms.
If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of how to make lasting change, coaching provides a space to explore, reflect, and take meaningful action.
I’ll help you identify what’s not working, and help you uncover how to do something different.
If you’re stressed, frustrated, or confused…. The worst thing you can do …. is Do Nothing.
Coaching Is...
✔ A partnership – You are the expert in your own life. My role is to ask the right questions, provide insight, and help you stay accountable to what matters most to you.
✔ Focused on solutions – We won’t dwell on the past or diagnose problems. Instead, we’ll focus on where you want to go and how to get there in a way that feels doable.
✔ Flexible and personalized – There is no one-size-fits-all approach. We work together to find strategies that fit into your life, not the other way around.
✔ Action-oriented – Small, consistent steps create lasting change. Coaching helps you take those steps with confidence.
✔ Empowering – You already have the wisdom and ability to create change. Coaching helps you tap into your intuition, build self-trust, and take control of your journey.
✔ Understanding of Pelvic Health – You get a coach who is pelvic health informed. She used to be your physical therapist, and gets it.
Coaching Is Not...
✖ Medical treatment or physical therapy – Coaching does not diagnose or treat medical conditions. If you need medical advice, a healthcare provider is the right person to see. Coaching can complement medical care by helping you implement lifestyle changes and suggestions given to you by your physical therapist in a way that works for you.
✖ Telling you what to do – I won’t hand you a strict plan or set of rules. Instead, I help you discover what works best for you and your unique life circumstances. You can tell me what your provider and/or physical therapist has recommended and we can figure out if it’s the right path for you, and if so, also figure out your next steps!
✖ A quick fix – Change doesn’t happen overnight. Coaching is about sustainable progress, not instant results.
✖ One-size-fits-all advice – What works for one person may not work for another. Coaching is tailored to your needs, goals, and challenges.
✖ Something you have to do alone – You don’t have to figure it all out by yourself. Coaching provides support, accountability, and encouragement along the way.
Is Coaching Right for You?
Are you struggling with pelvic floor dysfunction, bowel problems, or other symptoms that impact your daily life?
This includes: infertility, chronic pelvic pain, painful sex, urinary concerns (leakage, night time urinating, frequency), constipation or IBS
Have you been told or feel like you need to exercise, but feel stuck or overwhelmed, or uncertain of what to do or how to prevent a flare up?
Are you ready to make self-care a priority without guilt or stress?
Do you want support in creating meaningful, lasting improvements that improve your overall well-being?
If any of this resonates with you, coaching could be the missing piece you’ve been looking for!
If you are looking for a hands on, in-person provider, you can find a Pelvic PT at one of these websites:

Scar & Sexual Pain after Cesarean Birth
“I was about three months postpartum with my son when I began receiving care from Tina. I was having significant discomfort in my incision area from my cesarean, sharp pains during intercourse, as well as problems with inconsistency with my bladder (peeing when I sneezed).
As a Physical Therapist, Tina is highly-skilled, incredibly kind, and an excellent listener. She is very adept at diagnosing the cause of my pain and used a series of hands on therapies and stretches to effectively treat my pelvic pain. Pelvic pain, and the symptoms associated with it, are not easy for anyone to deal with. Tina's positive, solution-oriented approach is very reassuring. She helps patients explore the physical, environmental, and emotional causes and triggers of pelvic pain. Throughout the sessions, she also offers a series of thorough explanations, visualizations, and diagrams that allow me to understand how parts of my anatomy and musculature are inter-connected and related to the pain. The physical therapy homework she assigns is very helpful and allows my symptoms to keep improving between sessions. She is always mindful to ensure the home exercises are helping with my progress. Tina is responsive to email and always follows up on my questions.
If you experience any pelvic discomfort or any of the common symptoms following the birth of a baby, I highly recommend Tina to help you heal and care for your body."
