Finding Your Way—
Welcome! I’m Esther Brandon, a post-traumatic growth coach and consultant, and I’m so happy you’re here.
When You Start To Walk On The Way, The Way Appears
— Rumi
There may be times you don’t feel safe. There may be times the world does not feel safe. I invite you to think about the courage and strength you have to flourish.
Are you craving more tools to help you find steadiness when you don’t feel safe?
Are you longing for the support of a warm, inclusive community, as you continue to find your way forward?
My coaching sessions will offer you the practices and tools of : evidence-based mindfulness, Interpersonal Neurobiology, and the neuroscience of growth and healing.
I will softly invite you to see the courage and strength you have to flourish. Let’s create a safe enough, compassionate space together, so you can take your next steps on your courageous journey.

“I’m grateful for Esther’s humanity and uniquely skilled guidance…most especially on those days when I am feeling, ‘I don’t need this’! I’m learning to have more compassion for myself from her ability to listen and reflect my words back to me. Being truly heard by Esther releases the built-up steam in my life. And now, I’m discovering a more fully integrated sense of self-awareness, understanding and acceptance.”

My Journey
During the last couple of decades, I have been integrating into my healing and post-traumatic growth journey, the theory and practices of Interpersonal Neurobiology (IPNB) and applied PolyVagal theory. Interpersonal Neurobiology can be described as integrating science and the human experience. In 2018, I opened my trauma informed well-being coaching practice. I offer to you my deep knowledge of Mindful Awareness practice, experiencing the energy of Self-Compassion, and new approaches from Polyvagal Theory to befriend your nervous system and work with your vagus nerve to moderate your body's fight/flight/freeze responses, and the neurobiology of post-traumatic growth and healing.
To learn more about Interpersonal Neurobiology, PolyVagal Theory, and the neuroscience of Well-Being, I invite you to visit my Resources page.
In the last several years, I have been restoring my ability to walk, after suffering traumatic injury to my vestibular (balance) system. It has been a time of feeling many layers of grief and loss, which has opened my heart to forgiveness, and love. A quiet time of finding the light you do not expect to find in the darkness. A time of being with my vulnerability and reconnecting to my wholeness. With each steady step forward, I feel the strength and power of my resilience as a woman and as a healer. I am looking forward to connecting with you.
