Coaching for Women

Tap Into Self Esteem, Trust, Compassion, and Understanding with a Women’s Coach

Every Woman Deserves an Empowering Force in Her Corner

find your inner confidence and care for yourself, inside and out.

Woman, I totally get it—you might not remember the last time you slowed down, took time for yourself, or allowed self care to move a few spots up on your list before what everyone else needs from you. And sometimes, when we do find that time to pause and reflect, the inner critic voice shows up to focus on what we’re not doing enough of, goals put on the backburner, and comparison to what we “should” be.

I don’t blame you if you want to let out a big “UGH” after reading that, and also want to know right here and right now you are SO held. Being a woman in the modern world is often paired with full plates, comparison, and expectations. You’re not alone if it’s challenging to make space for yourself or find a moment to catch your breath. We’re here to advocate for you and help you create that space that feels right on your person.

Part of taking care of your mental health includes helping us see the bigger picture, and the bigger picture unfortunately involves some major expectations on women that leave us over-burdened, overworked, and often trying to balance very fine lines. Remember America Ferrera’s monologue in Barbie that made us all feel so seen and kind of gut-punched at the same time? Yeah, that. More support around the uniqueness that is being female, please.

I’m here as your loving and passionate coach to offer you that big exhale to reconnect with yourself, your boundaries, and your confidence.

Whether it’s at work, in relationships, or how you take care of your health, you might relate to feeling:

A need for clarity as you move through a transitional period (dating, marriage, motherhood, moving, career change, etc.)

A desire to find your identity at work and in life and achieve a strong balance
Ready to take steps to build your self esteem
A curiosity to show up with more self love in dating and relationships
A pull to explore your relationship to self and reconnect with yourself
Body image thoughts or comparison that feel challenging to navigate
Confusion about female hormone health and the connection to mental health
A challenge or roadblock that you don’t know how to navigate
An excitement around exploring your potential with guidance and actionable steps

The gap between where we are and where we want to be often reflects a belief we hold about ourselves to keep us comfortable and safe (isn’t the human mind incredible?). I’m here to help you find the freedom in understanding those beliefs and choosing to confidently step into the unknown of what’s possible when we release anything standing in the way of our full potential.

Here’s a peek at the abundance of ways we can work together:

Feeling worthy just as you are

Freedom to express yourself and your needs without guilt or judgment blocking you from action
Finding self trust to stop second guessing yourself out of your path
Understanding your body to feel more comfortable in your skin and your unique beauty
Breaking away from the pressure to be perfect or meet certain standards set by others
Using your voice to advocate for yourself and what matters most to you
Practicing balance between “doing” and being in the moment to honor your needs
Building self compassion, giving yourself grace and allowing there to be room for imperfection
Connecting to authentic joy and fulfillment in your life
Easing your nervous system with grounding and somatic approaches

A love note from your coach

I want you to know that I sincerely see you in this experience, and became a certified coach so you never have to navigate it alone. I’m here welcoming you with the most welcoming, supportive, non-judgmental heart to a space to come exactly as you are and trust that you have an advocate in your corner who sees your full potential.

I’ve been so grateful to find meaning in what I’ve overcome in my life, because it’s helped me connect even more deeply with the stories I get to witness. While I’m always here to find the opportunity in a challenging moment, I also want to be real and acknowledge that many emotions can show up when we’re on the cusp of a breakthrough. Know that you’re held fully, without judgment. Connecting with ourselves fully might mean more beautiful parts are asking to be seen and we make space for every single one of them.

Working with people to find themselves and what helps them live their most fulfilling life has led me to another passion of helping couples do the same. It lights me up to expand my role into a relationship coach, supporting couples in foundational skills of communication, conflict resolution, stress management, and creating a shared vision for the future.

With Love, Jess

Women’s Coaching at Modern Therapy: FAQs

At Modern Therapy, our team of coaches and therapists work together, learning from one another, sharing skills and insights, and investing time into our own professional development to offer you the most support possible.

The role of a coach and a therapist may be different, but we often see clients who find value in working with both a coach and a therapist simultaneously in their experience here at Modern. Your coach and therapist may collaborate when it’s in your highest interest with your permission, but you will always be a part of that conversation and in the know so you can guide the way you show up in each space.

Coaching and therapy are bi-directional and symbiotic with one another. Coaching focuses on more structured sessions aimed at clarifying action steps that will move you forward toward your specified goals in a niche area of life, health, or career. It thrives on goal-setting, resource sharing, and guidance in areas such as homework or experiments to try between sessions. In a coaching session, you’re learning how to hold yourself accountable for what you want most.

Therapy is focusing on some deeper foundational work that may not have clear goals or action steps as you learn more about yourself and what’s shaped you. As you do this work, it will enable you to bring a more energetic and ready version of yourself to coaching sessions that are tailored to specific pieces of your overall story that’s nurtured in your therapy sessions.

Here are a few ways that people welcome in coaching and therapy:
- Sometimes people begin their personal development journey with a coach, and add in a therapist to work simultaneously
- Sometimes people begin their personal development journey in therapy, and add in a coach to work in a certain area of their life
- Sometimes people begin their personal development journey in therapy, then decide to end their therapeutic journey and begin their coaching journey
Getting started gives you that grounding guarantee that you have a passionate coach who will co-create an energetic space to unlock your inner awareness of the bigger picture of life. During the coaching process, you have your coach’s complete attention and focus.
The coaching process is designed to offer encouragement and actionable guidance to help you achieve your personal, wellbeing, and professional goals. Your coach is here to help you establish what your goals are right now and guide you to grow them as life evolves around you. With your goals leading, your coach helps you create the mindset and actionable steps to achieve your goals.
Everything we discuss will be confidential. Remember, an excellent life coach will always be in your corner with your best interests at heart.
Coaching is all about the space to be your full authentic self, feel comfortable sharing your story, and be motivated to make the most of the time.
If you're all about flexibility, our coaches can work with you from anywhere in the world through virtual video sessions.
We love this way to reach more of you, and can also chat about in-person sessions with our coaches based on your location.
