About us
Joana is an ICF PCC-credentialed coach with a background in biomedical science, combining neuroscience, NLP, and somatic work to help high-achieving women overcome overthinking and lead with clear, confident decision-making.

My mission is to help high-achieving women quiet the noise of overthinking, reconnect with their inner clarity, and lead with confident, self-trusting decisions.
Too many high-achieving women in leadership second-guess themselves in the moments that matter most. I help you think clearly, trust your decisions, and lead with confidence under pressure, on your terms.
With a background in biomedical science and corporate coaching, I combine NLP and targeted coaching methods to help you break patterns of overthinking and step into clear, confident leadership.

Joana had a way to walk me through what was happening with simplicity and kindness. Even laughing became a therapy!
My sessions with Joana provided me with profound balance and clarity, integrating mind and spirit in a transformative way. They were rooted in trust and truth.
Working with Joana has been life-changing. Through our sessions, I learned to approach situations from a new perspective, focusing on creating positive mental shifts and redirecting my thoughts toward helpful and empowering outcomes. I feel stronger and more in control of my life. I would recommend her sessions to anyone.
Joana is amazing at what she does. Each session was valuable, and she provided a lot of insight with a variety/mixture of meditate and techniques. She helped me discover the root of a lot of my struggles and how to work through them. We shifted my mindset to be less self-deprecating and be more positive. Joana stressed to me the importance of self-care and self-love. I learned so many tools to live a more peaceful life, and I'm truly appreciative of her!
Joana is a very talented coach with an intuitive coaching style. She took the time to assess my situation and asked questions that challenged me to think outside the box. She is a great listener and provided me with valuable and credible insight. She has a very uplifting and positive energy while still being able to remain calm and grounded. I found it very easy to open up to her and I truly appreciate her support and guidance. I highly recommend her as a coach and I am forever grateful for the instant results I got from working with her!
Stop procrastinating and thinking you’re not worthy or good enough and start the shift to become a more confident and empowered woman!
