Real Change Happens in the Body

I work with leaders and teams at the level where real patterns live. In the body and in our relationships.

Bridging Worlds

As a Zen practitioner, leadership coach, and trained therapist, I work with smart, successful people who are hitting the limits of what got them here and are ready to build real emotional intelligence and presence.

My background spans tech startups, design thinking, and deep training in how people actually change, from the body up. I speak both languages, the analytical and the relational. We won't get lost in the past. We work in the here and now, and everything we do connects back to your real life and real work.

How I Work



Individual Coaching

You're sharp and effective, but impact requires more than expertise. Build the emotional intelligence, presence, and communication skills that turn good leaders into ones people actually want to follow.



Team Coaching

The same patterns keep showing up and no one names them. I help teams of 4-8 see what's really going on beneath the surface, build a shared language for navigating difference, and do hard things together.

Life Design Coaching

Something is shifting and you can feel it. Whether it's a career change, a relationship transition, or a deeper question about who you're becoming, I help you navigate the crossing with clarity and support.

Experience

I hired Angella when I started a new position with a new team. My team was initially reluctant to engage with an Enneagram assessment, but Angella made them feel comfortable and truly seen—both by the process and by her gentle, insightful coaching.

She gave us a common vocabulary to understand our different communication styles and pinpoint our challenges with specific strategies. As their supervisor, that shared language was invaluable. The work we did leading up to our team retreat gave us the foundation to better understand ourselves as individuals and as a team.

Division Director

Angella was a pleasure to work with. What I really enjoyed was Angella's explorative, integral approach and the combination of her therapist and coaching skills. It added a tremendous amount of value to our work together and enabled me to apply certain practices that I wouldn't have known about had I been working with solely a coach vs. a therapist / coach. I highly recommend working with Angella!

Rimma B., Founder

Angella has a rare ability to help people feel safe enough to have the conversations that truly matter. Her work goes beyond conflict resolution. She helps teams understand what's happening beneath the surface, strengthening trust and belonging. Bring her in while your team is already healthy, and she'll help establish rituals and habits that clear the fog so teams can think clearly, build joy and respect, and do great work.

I took the iEQ9 survey and met with Angella to review the results. Her analysis illuminated structural patterns I hadn’t seen before—both in my own behavior and in my closest relationships. Seeing things from this more objective perspective made real change possible. I highly recommend her.

Angella opened up a whole new perspective of how deep the Enneagram can go. I considered myself an advanced student but after diving into the subtle layers of my subtypes and interaction styles I could more clearly see into some of my previously unconscious behaviors. In particular, why I was reacting to coworkers and family members in a certain way but, more importantly, why they were reacting to me! This is advanced and important inner work and she elucidated it for me with wisdom, patience and grace.
