Dr. Mia GeriCoach

Are you a professional woman sandwiched between caring for young children AND aging parents? Not to mention the stressors of fitting in work, spending time with your partner, friends, and yourself.
Feel annoyed or angry every time you pick up the phone and see the caller ID from your parents and wonder "what is it now?"
Tired of waiting for the other shoe to drop either in your parents' lives or in your own?
I was in similar situation with my own mother's cancer diagnosis journey.
Life coaching has helped me tremendously in holding a mirror to my own unconscious thoughts and the impact of them on my life and in my relationships.
I went from feeling my own heart race with every call from my mom to being able to calmly listen to her worries without jumping into the emotional deep end with her.
I've learned to preserve my own emotional energy (and physical energy through self care) to be the best possible daughter to my parents.
Let's chat and see if I can help
