Cultivate Your Inner Harmony: Life and Mental Health Coaching for Women
Hi! I'm Sandra Burns
Registered Nurse and Life/Health Coach
With over 20 years of experience as a registered nurse, I have dedicated myself to caring for others through some of life's most challenging moments. My journey has not been without its own trials- I have personally struggled with mental health issues, and these experiences have given me deep empathy and understanding. Today, I use both my professional knowledge and personal growth to guide women toward better health, self-acceptance, and resilience.
Are you a woman struggling with anxiety, stress, or feeling overwhelmed by life's demands? YOU ARE NOT ALONE-I have walked this path myself, both as a healthcare professional and as a fellow traveler through mental health challenges.
I help women just like you rediscover your strength and cultivate your inner harmony. Our coaching sessions are by confidential, compassionate, and tailored to your unique needs.
Let's walk this journey together!

Women and Mental Health
Women in America face a variety of mental health challenges, including higher rates of depression and anxiety compared to men. Factors such as hormonal changes, postpartum depression, and societal pressures regarding work-life balance and caregiving roles can contribute significantly to these issues.
Additionally, women often encounter barriers to accessing mental health care, especially in areas with limited providers. Disparities in care, underrepresentation in medical research, and the stigma around seeking support further complicate a woman's mental health.
As a nurse and life coach, I provide a safe space to explore your mental health concerns. Together, we co-create wellness goals, uncover barriers to success and formulate a plan to keep you moving forward.

Life and Health Coaching with a Registered Nurse can help
Life and health coaching with a Registered Nurse can provide significant benefits for mental health by offering women a supportive and nonjudgmental environment to explore their goals, challenges and values. Through regular 1:1 sessions, women gain clarity and direction, learn to set realistic mental health goals, and develop actionable plans to overcome obstacles, all of which reduce feelings of stress and overwhelm.
Moreover, the accountability and encouragement provided by a nurse coach can boost self-confidence and motivation. By focusing on strengths and building resilience, women experience improved emotional well-being, greater self-awareness, and an increased sense of control over their lives.

My Story
In a bustling trauma ER in Baltimore, where the sounds of beeping machines and the rhythmic "thump-thump" of medivac helicopters filled the air, I worked as a dedicated nurse. On the outside, I appeared strong and capable. But, beneath the professional facade lay a silent battle with depression, anxiety, and low self-worth, compounded by the pressures of work and parenting.
As the demands of my job intensified, and with the birth of my second child, I found myself overwhelmed. 12-hour shifts, the emotional toll of patient care, and the constant pressure to perform at work and at home took a significant toll on my mental health. Feelings of inadequacy and hopelessness consumed me. Alcohol became my best friend. I questioned my abilities as a nurse and a mother. The darkness of depression made it challenging to see beyond my struggles, and I felt trapped in a cycle of anxiety that made even the simplest tasks seem impossible. Thoughts of suicide were frequent.
Recognizing that I could no longer fight this battle alone, I sought help. I began therapy, where I learned to confront my feelings and challenge the negative thoughts that had clouded my mind. Through guided sessions, I discovered healthy coping strategies, mindfulness techniques, and the importance of self-compassion. I learned to take action-small steps each day that allowed for healing and growth. With time and the help of a mental health mentor, I slowly transformed my belief patterns and gained a new, healthier perspective.
Today, I stand as a testimony to resilience. I embrace my role as a nurse coach and as a mother to three children. Through my journey, I have learned that it is okay to ask for help and that healing is a process. I am not just a nurse; I am a warrior and an inspiration to all women who face their own struggles. My hope is that my story serves as a reminder that even in the darkest of times, there is hope for a brighter tomorrow.
