live into your true identity

Clinically informed coaching and consulting for individuals, couples, families, and teams seeking greater understanding, connection, and purpose.

• INQUIRE

Understanding yourself changes how you move through the world.

Meaningful growth begins with understanding - understanding who you are, what shapes you, how you relate to others, and what may be keeping you from moving forward. My work draws from clinical training, personality frameworks, experiential exploration, and systems-based thinking to help clients develop deeper understanding of themselves and translate that into meaningful change.

coaching focused

Coaching looks toward the future. Together, we clarify what you want, understand the patterns that may be getting in the way, and identify practical ways to move forward.

Clinically Trained

My clinical training informs the way I understand people, relationships, systems, and patterns.Our work, however, remains coaching—not psychotherapy.

About Michelle

Ever since I can remember, people have said to me, “Wow you ask really good questions.” I’ve always been curious about what makes people them—the experiences, relationships, values, motivations, and patterns that shape who we become. Which lead me to discover my true identity as a people perceiver.Before becoming an identity coach, I was a teacher, and my favorite moments were the AHA moments: when a student saw the connection and understood something in a new way. I discovered that I loved helping people uncover what was already there, making sense of the pieces, and finding a path forward.That same curiosity eventually led me to earn a Master's in Social Work and pursue clinical training. Today, I bring together my background in education, clinical social work, and years of working with people and organizations to create a space where you can slow down, get curious, and better understand yourself.I believe being informs doing. When we understand who we are, what matters to us, and the patterns that shape us, we can make more intentional choices about where we want to go.That is the heart of Thruline - to find the connecting theme that runs through your story—the thread that can help you understand your identity, make sense of where you’ve been, and clarify where you’re going.
My approach is relational, curious, and grounded, with a blend of narrative, experiential, and systems-based perspectives. I’m known for asking thoughtful questions, noticing patterns, and helping people see connections they may not have seen before. I also draw on tools such as the Enneagram and other personality frameworks to help deepen awareness and motivation to change.Most importantly, I believe you carry much of the wisdom you need. My role is not to tell you who you are, but to ask questions to lead to curiosity, self-actualization, and the motivation to move forward with greater clarity.
