Running a business or leading a team in Portsmouth can look successful on the outside while feeling unsustainable on the inside.
Help to Grow Institute supports business owners, executives, and high-performing professionals in Portsmouth who feel mentally overloaded, emotionally exhausted, or stuck in constant pressure mode and want a healthier, clearer way forward.
This is not productivity coaching that pushes harder.
It is systemic wellbeing coaching that restores clarity, capacity, and resilience.
Burnout rarely comes from one bad week. It builds through sustained responsibility, decision fatigue, and self-override.
I work with Portsmouth-area leaders who:
Feel constantly “on” but never truly rested
Experience brain fog, irritability, or loss of motivation
Have succeeded professionally but feel disconnected internally
Coaching focuses on stabilizing your nervous system, rebuilding internal boundaries, and redesigning how you work so success no longer costs your health.
Leadership Wellbeing & Capacity Coaching
Strong leadership today requires more than endurance.
This work supports leaders who want to:
Lead with clarity instead of reactivity
Create psychological safety for themselves and their teams
Make decisions without constant internal pressure
We focus on humane leadership, workload design, and sustainable performance so leadership becomes steadier rather than heavier.
Life & Transition Coaching for High Performers
Major transitions often surface in high-pressure environments like Portsmouth’s business, healthcare, and professional sectors.
This support is for individuals navigating:
Identity shifts or career transitions
Loss of direction after “doing everything right”
The sense that something meaningful is missing
We slow things down enough to restore perspective and help you reconnect with what actually matters.
I primarily work with:
Business owners and founders
Executives and senior leaders
Healthcare, education, and nonprofit professionals
High-achieving individuals experiencing burnout or overload
Many of my Portsmouth clients are deeply capable, responsible people who are used to carrying a lot for others and are ready to stop carrying everything alone.

Sessions are offered virtually or in person, making support accessible regardless of schedule or location.
No. Coaching focuses on present-day capacity, decision-making, and sustainable change. While the work is nervous-system informed, it is not clinical therapy.
Yes. Most clients balance demanding schedules. Sessions are structured, practical, and designed to integrate into real life.
Both. Burnout rarely stays in one lane. We address the full system—mind, body, workload, and values both in business and private life.
At this time, sessions are virtual, which many Portsmouth clients prefer for flexibility and consistency or on location in the client’s office.
