Welcome, I'm Marcelle!
As a seasoned holistic psychotherapist and mother-daughter coach, I specialize in guiding mother and adult daughter couples and women over 25 through their healing journeys. My extensive background in health coaching, marriage and family therapy, and executive coaching provides a comprehensive understanding of family systems, dynamics, and intergenerational patterns that shape relationships. This allows me to navigate the complex mother-daughter dynamic with great care and understanding
What truly sets me apart is my personal experience in healing my own Mother Wound. By courageously engaging in deep inner work, I've gained profound insights into the attachment wounds and core issues my clients face. This first-hand experience provides an unparalleled authenticity and depth of understanding that I bring to my practice..
It wasn’t until I took an honest look at our society that I realized we live in an environment that devalues feminine principles and women. Women have often seen each other as competition rather than allies, a reflection of the old fabric of misogyny that has harmed women for generations. Our mothers and grandmothers have lived in trauma, their heartbreak often stemming from their own mothers. Because we don't value women, we don't value our children. Our laws and childcare systems reflect this devaluation, creating an unsafe environment for our children. This ancestral heartbreak is born from women who did not receive enough nurturance to pass it on to us.
My Mission
I am on a mission to guide adult daughters toward healing the mother-daughter dynamic so that future generations of women can experience profound connections within themselves and their relationships. My clinical practice, which focuses on people-pleasing behaviors, highly sensitive people, and assisting those navigating life transitions, has informed much of the work that I bring to my coaching practice. This allows me to address the multi-faceted aspects of the mother-daughter relationship, enabling comprehensive healing.
My Approach
Through years of working with women and my own experiences, I have identified recurring themes that inform my approach. My dedication is not just professional; it's born out of an authentic understanding of the challenges and triumphs that come with the healing journey. I hold a deep vision for you, that healing is possible.
This powerful integration of professional training and personal healing enables me to create an incredibly safe, compassionate container for mothers and adult daughters to explore their most vulnerable truths. Simultaneously, I possess powerful tools and strategies to shift long-standing patterns that may have plagued their connection for generations.
My Journey and Passion
My own journey crystallized my passion for this life-changing work. From this embodied place of wisdom, I act as an empathic guide, ushering my clients into alignment with their most liberated, sovereign selves while repairing ruptures in the maternal lineage.
Why I Do This Work
After working for almost a decade with individual women who struggled with their relationships with themselves and in their intimate relationships, I realized a profound need for this work. Many come to me in the midst of acute challenges—perhaps following a blowout fight, a new life phase like marriage or childbirth, or the resurfacing of old abandonment or betrayal wounds.
My clients have told me that this is their life’s work. I believe that together, we can break free from cycles of wounding and transform your mother-daughter relationship into one of mutual empowerment and respect.
