Meet Maureen
Certified School Counselor and Life Coach
Hi there,
​
I’ve always been fascinated by what helps people stay steady in an unsteady world.As a counselor, coach, and lifelong student of the mind, I’ve spent years helping people navigate anxiety, grief, relationship challenges, and big life transitions. But my understanding of resilience didn’t come just from textbooks — it came from life itself.
I grew up in a family that knew both love and loss. I’ve experienced seasons of instability, heartbreak, and unexpected change — the kind that shakes your foundation and forces you to rebuild. Through it all, I learned one powerful truth: you are the pillar. No matter what falls apart around you, there is a strength within you that cannot be destroyed — only rediscovered.
That realization became the heart of my work and the foundation of my upcoming book, Big Pillar Energy™.
Today, I blend neuroscience, mindfulness, and mindset to help people move from reactivity to resilience — not by pretending life is easy, but by learning how to meet it with clarity, calm, and courage.
Whether I’m working with parents trying to support an anxious child, young adults finding their footing, or professionals navigating burnout and balance, my goal is the same: to help you feel steady, confident, and capable — no matter what’s happening around you.
​
Beyond the Work​
​
When I’m not writing or counseling, you’ll find me walking in nature, laughing with my husband and kids, or enjoying strong coffee and good conversation. I believe humor and honesty are healing — and that every challenge, no matter how hard, holds the seed of transformation.
My Approach
My work combines:
​
Neuroscience – understanding how your brain and body respond to stress so you can work with yourself, not against yourself.
Mindfulness – building awareness and presence so you can respond instead of react.
Mindset – shifting old stories and beliefs that keep you stuck, and replacing them with new ones rooted in confidence and choice.
Compassion – because growth requires safety, not shame.
The result? Practical tools that actually help you thrive — in your home, your relationships, your work, and your own mind.
