Evolving Experiences
Meet Sabrina (she/her)
Welcome!
Thank you for exploring this website. I’m honored to connect with you and to provide support as you consider mind-body coaching and/or transformative SEL to cultivate compassionate nervous system care for your context. May we all explore skills to form habits that develop mindsets for caring and just living.
Experienced Educator
My practice is deeply informed by nearly two decades in education, from classroom teacher to building instructional specialist to social and emotional learning specialist at district and state levels.
I specialize in individual coaching and systems-wide approaches that support mental health, integrated professional learning, and identity-affirming learning environments.
Whole Person Teaching and Learning
I facilitate learning to support nervous system care through the integration of mind, body, and spirit. My personal experiences navigating historically excluded and privileged identities inform my healing-centered methods.
Cultivating personal and community compassionate accountability continues to support my recovery from complex trauma, to center joy in my life, and to resource me on the path to a caring and just world. Wholeness is a complex journey.
Toward Transformation is a queer-owned organization honored to partner with diverse perspectives and identities.
