Hi, I’m so glad you’re here! I am Ariana, my friends call me Ari.

I’ve spent much of my life studying people, connection, resilience, and what helps us move forward when life gets complicated. My background spans public service, Human Resources, psychology/social work education, restorative bodywork, advocacy, and deeply human one-on-one work, all of which has shaped the way I support people and show up day to day.

The lived experiences of being neurodivergent and queer have given me a particular appreciation for people who don’t always fit neatly into boxes the world creates for us. My work is intentionally affirming of all identities, relationship structures, and the many ways people experience connection and belonging. You never need to edit yourself to be welcome here, and you certainly don’t have to share my identities to belong.

At the heart of everything I do and have ever done is a simple belief: people deserve to be seen, supported, and championed as they navigate being human.

My role in the work we do together is to attend to who you already are, help you renew what life might have depleted, and invite you toward whatever comes next.

Based in Austin, Texas, I offer services in person or globally via WhatsApp, Google Meets, phone, text, or email.

Sending all my love,

Ariana Frances, MPA, CHRM
