ABOUT ME

Greetings, I'm Saresa, though feel free to call me Reese. As a dedicated mindset coach with over a decade of experience, I've amassed a unique set of qualifications that enable me to effectively guide and support my clients towards their aspirations.

My educational background includes a Bachelor's degree in Social Work, a Master's degree in Criminal Justice with a specialization in Applied Behavior Analysis, and I'm currently pursuing a second Master’s degree in Social Work. This extensive academic journey has afforded me a deep understanding of the intricacies of the human mind, an essential foundation for successful coaching.

My diverse clientele has encompassed a wide array of goals and backgrounds. This breadth of experience has honed my ability to empathize and tailor my coaching approach to each individual's unique needs. From advocacy and child welfare to healthcare, public welfare, mental health, and substance abuse, I've navigated a variety of domains.

Continual learning is a cornerstone of my approach. I actively participate in various classes, workshops, and trainings to stay abreast of the latest coaching techniques and trends. This commitment to ongoing education allows me to provide clients with the most current strategies and insights.

Throughout my own life journey, I've faced moments of turmoil and uncertainty. These experiences taught me the profound impact our mindset has on our ability to overcome challenges and achieve our goals. Witnessing the transformative power of a positive mindset in my own life inspired me to share this invaluable tool with others. Becoming a mindset coach allows me to help individuals harness their inner strength, overcome obstacles, and unlock their full potential. It's immensely fulfilling to witness my clients thrive and achieve what they once believed was beyond their reach.
