Hey, I'm Janani! I'm also "Dr. K", a triple-board certified physician (Internal Medicine, Preventive Medicine, and Lifestyle Medicine). Whether I'm working as a physician or coach, my goal is to help inspire every patient to find their own inner potential to heal and feel better, no matter the circumstances. I consider myself to be a rational, scientific, and evidence-first type of person -- but I'm also really familiar with the inexplicable, mammoth proportions of chronic, scary pain, which go far beyond reasoned rationality. I experienced this type of pain in multiple places in my body, on and off, for several years and was convinced it was all due to a nonhealing sports injury in my hamstring and sacroiliac joint... I tried everything, until I finally realized that truly, it was my mind (and not my body) that was the fuel behind the pain fire. Lin helped me put the tools together so that I could finally heal my mind. I'm indebted to my kind, caring coach who saw me through some rough times, and inspired to give back to patients by placing empathy, care, and trust at the center of the relationship.

My coaching style
I strive to be a partner and a set of “training wheels” on this journey with clients, helping them find footing and regain balance when things seem off-kilter through encouragement and compassion, enough that they can ultimately ride freely on their own. My goal is to reflect back to clients the truth of what they may intrinsically know inside, when the other voices of fear, doubt, and overthinking could be quieted. The universe of “healing” is vast and overwhelming at times, and my hope is to act as a filter that can distill the key practical elements that speak most to the client’s specific needs at that time.
