Real Talk.

Real Growth.

Support for individuals and couples, or anyone navigating relationships, communication, and emotional growth — without judgment or fluff.

“I help people navigate relationships and communicate more clearly — especially when things get real.”

Steve VanDermyden

Real Talk for Real-Life

I help people get better at being human with each other. That means learning how to say what you really mean, hear what’s really being said, and approach your relationships with more honesty and confidence, even through the most challenging moments.

As a Certified Relationship Coach, I have completed level 2 Training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy, and have years of lived experience through love, loss, and non-traditional relationships, and now I use everything I’ve learned to help others build stronger communication, deeper connection, and more self-trust.

No fluff. No judgment or “fixing”. Just real talk and the space to grow into who you’re meant to be, with others and with yourself.

What do you want

to work on together?

  • Communication is the basis of every relationship, and we’re here to explore how you connect with the people who matter most. Whether it’s a partner, family member, or friend, we’ll work on creating more open, honest conversations, building trust, and navigating conflict in ways that bring you closer instead of pushing you apart.

  • Learn how to set clear, healthy boundaries and handle communication breakdowns before they spiral. Together we’ll uncover what gets in the way, strengthen your ability to say “no” without guilt, and help you protect your energy while still staying connected to others.

  • Personal growth isn’t just about goals—it’s about learning how to sit with your feelings, respond instead of react, and find language for the experiences that shape you. This work gives you the tools to show up more authentically in every area of your life.

  • Relationships naturally change, and sometimes they need a reset. Realignment gives individuals, partners, or couples the space to reflect, clarify what’s working, and reconnect around shared goals so everyone feels seen and supported moving forward.
