SAID...

No one prepared me for taking care of my parent during a life-threatening illness. What am I even doing? Is there a handbook for what to expect -- when you are a caregiver?

OR FELT...

I'm losing my sense of self. I don't have time to decompress or center myself. I'm happy to be of service to the people I love, but I'm not sure who I am any more, besides a caregiver.

OR WONDERED...

How am I going to balance everything in my life? Between kids, job and caregiving, I feel so lonely. Is anyone else going through this as well? Am I the only one who can't balance it all?

Empowering Family Caregivers Through Personalized Coaching

DAILY SUPPORT
Because Caregiving
Is a 24/7 Gig

Caring for a family member or loved one during a prolonged illness is an all-encompassing endeavor. It can also be lonely and depleting, no matter how much you care about "your person."
 

Take Care Academy was created to directly support caregivers. Our one-on-one coaching sessions have been developed to support your mental health, guide you forward, and generally offer a soft place to land whenever you need a boost. We make space to put down the weight of today's emotional heavy lifting. 

​

Blending professional coaching techniques and personal experience, we help you navigate one of life's most unexpected — and least discussed — challenges.

HERE'S HOW WE TAKE CARE
Meticulously created for you by a
family caregiver & professional coach

YOU ARE NOT Alone

I've been in your spot - and poured all my knowledge, experience and education into building powerful, specific tools for your season of care.
 

Hi, I'm Jessica - family caregiver and professional coach.
Over the past twenty years, I've been patient & caregiver; client and coach. When I began caring for my mom during her cancer diagnosis, I quickly realized there wasn't a guidebook. So I wrote one. And then built a coaching practice to support caregivers, just like you. 

 

I created Take Care Academy because no one teaches us how to be caregivers. We are so often thrown in to the deep end without any direction, support or guidance. My goal is to change the conversation around care so others don't feel lost or alone.


. Every aspect of Take Care is built to support you with the most challenging - and unexpected - moment in life. From one-on-one coaching to the Modern Guide to Caregiving to our Ten Tenets of Care-- everything has been test, proven and selected with you in mind. I've crafted everything to make this moment easier, kinder, and a bit more joy-filled for you. 

Caregiving is the hardest - and most human - thing you'll ever experience. 

You aren't alone.

EVIDENCE-BASED COACHING
FOR THE MOST
HUMAN EXPERIENCE

WE HELP OUR CLIENTS FEEL SAFE & SUPPORTED BY USING

Care Coaching is a carefully crafted blend of social science, change management, and performance tools, paired with decades of experience, proven techniques, along with a dash of humor, pop culture and a smidge of woo-woo. All together, my coaching brings ease, wisdom, and lasting transformation. Together, we’ll shape the path, and you’ll define the change.

Coaching That Fits Your Story.

Empowering Family Caregivers Through Personalized Coaching

Care Coaching uses the "Toolbox Method" while maintaining a personalized, tailored experience. We will discuss the topics most relevant to you in the week, explore what old tools were selected, but also focus on your bigger picture. Think of sessions as a fun blend of the "greatest hits from yesterday, today and beyond." You'll leave each session with insights, reflection questions and mastery exercises -- each selected to match not only your goals, but what's reasonable given your life and caregiving
