Coaching and retreats for navigating life transitions and challenges to regain your sense of balance, joy, and community.

Do you sometimes feel like you don’t have the answers or tools to move your life forward? Do you feel stuck, alone, or trapped and unable to make changes?

What would it look like if you decided to change your life right now?

Do you long for a life that is balanced, fulfilling, and connected?

I work with individuals and groups, providing guidance, support, and skills to develop the courage and insight to create positive change.

My services are designed to meet clients where they are and provide the unique support they need. Offerings include Wellness Coaching, Relationship Coaching, Family Coaching, Mind-Body Practices, and Retreats.

Coaching begins with curiosity, courage, and compassion. 

Coaching for Individuals

A powerful coaching framework supports individuals in embracing change and moving forward with confidence and success in their lives. Coaching can help identify the root of problems and develop the skills to find solutions.

Coaching for Groups

Group Coaching is a model in which I engage with a group of people who share similar goals and challenges. In this process, we collaborate to find answers to difficult questions and achieve shared goals.

Are you ready to embark on a self-discovery journey to change your life?

I help clients take a deep breath and find the pause button to facilitate balance and wellbeing. Let’s work together to help you gain greater insight and awareness to achieve balance in your life.

Through a thought-provoking and creative process, you will find the inspiration to cultivate happiness and success personally and professionally.

This is your moment

Welcome. My name is Ilana. I am an experienced wellness and mental health coach who is deeply passionate about helping people transform their lives and relationships.

I am also a Yoga Teacher and Reiki practitioner, incorporating a whole-person approach to empower individuals and groups to create change and thrive.

“Maybe the journey isn’t about being anything. Maybe it’s about unbecoming everything that isn’t really you, so that you can be who you were meant to be in the first place”.

—Paulo Coelho

    Ilana put together a beautiful ceremony where she and other women in my life offered me their blessings and gifts of word, song, and encouragement in order to remind me that I would be surrounded by the wisdom and support of my community during my labor and in my postpartum days. It was the perfect way to prepare me for what was to come in the months ahead."
