Hi I’m Ria, and I’m a certified Trauma-Informed Coach. From a young age, I noticed how easily people can get tangled in patterns of thought, repeating the same stories until they feel stuck. I also saw the difference it makes when someone has a safe, encouraging space where their potential is recognized and their voice matters.
That early awareness shaped me. I’ve always been drawn to creating spaces where people feel respected, understood, and supported to grow. My curiosity led me to study psychology and explore different perspectives on the human mind.
What I’ve learned is that change doesn’t come from forcing ourselves to ‘think positive’ or following quick-fix advice. Real healing begins when we understand where our patterns come from, learn to hold them with compassion, and gently create space for new ways of being.
This is the heart of my coaching style: a calm, trauma-informed space for reflection and growth, where you’re supported to untangle what feels heavy and discover the depth and resilience already within you.
“The wound is the place where the Light enters you.”

I know what it’s like to live in a constant state of overwhelm; to be self-aware, thoughtful, and capable, yet feel internally stuck. To overthink decisions, extend yourself for others, and still feel like your body won’t let you move forward. From the outside, things may look fine. Inside, it often feels like holding too much for too long.
My background is in psychology, and my work is trauma-informed and nervous-system based. I’m especially drawn to supporting people who have learned to stay safe by accommodating, people-pleasing, and monitoring themselves, patterns that eventually lead to burnout, shutdown, and a quiet loss of internal direction.
In my work, we don’t push for clarity or force action. We slow things down. We learn to recognize fight-flight-freeze and recurring patterns as they’re happening, restore a sense of safety in the body, and build the capacity to stay present with discomfort.
This isn’t therapy, and it’s not about fixing yourself. It’s about developing enough internal safety to move, choose, and respond without abandoning yourself in the process.
Working with Ria helped me feel safe in my body again. Her gentle guidance and awareness helped me understand my emotional triggers and learn to calm myself in moments of overwhelm. I now feel more grounded and at peace.
Ria has such a calm and grounded presence that makes it easy to share things that are normally hard to talk about. Her compassionate way of holding space allows whatever needs to come up to unfold naturally.
She not only creates room for things to emerge but also reminds you of your own strength, that you have what it takes to face challenges and create the future you want.
I always feel lighter after speaking with her, and I’m truly grateful for the opportunity to work with her.
Ria is an amazing coach! I was having a difficult time navigating through some heavy career and relationship blocks. She provided a safe and encouraging place to unpack everything and process my thoughts. Her questions were thoughtful, insightful, and effective. I found the clarity and confidence I needed to move forward in my life. Thank you!
