Meet Dr. Joanne Sotelo
Executive Coach
Harmonized Healer
Psychiatrist, Mind Fitness Coach, and Physician-Leader
Joanne Sotelo is a clinician who understands the neuroscience of the mind, and a woman who has navigated the professional systems, medicine, leadership, the invisible labor of high achievement, that her community lives inside.
Her approach bridges clinical neuroscience with trauma-informed care, identity-based coaching, and an unflinching understanding of what it costs to be a high-achieving woman today.
After 18 years in institutional leadership, Joanne made the courageous decision to step into private practice and expand her coaching work.
She understands:
- The pressure to perform
- The silent weight of responsibility
- The identity crisis that can follow achievement
- The loneliness that high-capacity women often carry
Her work integrates:
- Clinical psychiatric expertise
- Trauma-informed understanding
- Leadership insight
- Emotional intelligence
- Faith-informed reflection (if desired)
- Strategic personal development
This is not therapy disguised as coaching.
It is intentional, structured guidance grounded in deep professional experience.
