Rochelle Baitzel, BCMMHC | helping women to step in faith and flourish in purpose.
Welcome! Im so glad you're here.
As a pastor's wife, busy mom of five, certified mental health coach, and ministry leader, I know what it’s like to walk through seasons of overwhelm and burnout. I've felt the weight of trying to hold it all together. I've compared myself to others, second-guessed every step, and believed the lie that I wasn’t measuring up.
But everything began to change through God’s grace, when I learned to take my thoughts captive, renew my mind with His Word, and anchor my identity in Christ alone.
Now, I help other Christian women and moms do the same.
At Next Steps Coaching, I offer faith-based life and mental health coaching in a safe, supportive space where guilt and striving don't get the final say. Together, we’ll face the hard stuff with biblical wisdom, practical tools, and honest connection - so you can break free from perfectionism, limiting beliefs, and shame scripts, and give your full attention to the good things God has for you.
This is your invitation to grow, heal and thrive in the season you're in. You don’t have to do it alone. Let’s take the next step together.
If you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck in survival mode, or just going through the motions... You're not alone. I've been there myself- raising children, doing ministry, navigating shifting roles, & walking through difficult trials. Its easy to slowly lose the joy in the process, but this isn't what God intends for us. I partner with women just like you to ditch the unrealistic expectations, discern what God is truly asking of you in this season, uncover your God given gifts, and put them to use for His glory and your good. You don't have to figure it out alone.
How are you doing with what God has called you to? Whether you're feeling overwhelmed or just going through the motions, I'm here to support you as you take meaningful steps forward.
Who I help & What I do
(50 min. Virtual Coaching Sessions for Women)
I offer Christ-centered coaching for women in:
- Life Transitions - navigating identity shifts in seasons like motherhood, career changes, ministry roles, or starting over.
- Motherhood Challenges - as I mom of 5, I've seen it all-and know that every season of parenting comes with its own unique blessings and challenges. I help mothers navigate mom guilt, identity loss, and fear based parenting, without wishing away the hard moments within each season. Instead, I help you build effecting parenting skills, so that you can enjoy the journey, show up with confidence, connect with your kids, & create a home rooted in grace, not perfection or pressure.
- Pastors' Wives & Women in Ministry - offering confidential, compassionate support from someone who's been there. With over 20 years (and counting) of experience as a pastor's wife, I understand the unique weight of ministry life- the tension between serving others & showing up for your own family, the challenges of building healthy boundaries, building friendships, and navigating hard seasons in leadership. This is a safe space for you.
- Mindset Work, Identity, & Next Steps- helping women break free from perfectionism, people-pleasing, insecurity, comparison, and burnout by renewing their minds with gospel truth, not self-help or shame. Helping women identify their God-given gifts, so they can start over with clarity or take the next faithful step forward.
- PCOS Support - I also offer coaching support for women navigating PCOS, because the journey impacts way more than just your hormones.
