Are you feeling lost, overwhelmed, anxious and stressed over a major life transition unfolding in your life? With a calm, caring and supportive presence, I help women who are experiencing life changes of divorce, retirement, aging, bereavement, empty nest, career transition, caregiving and recovery issues. I will work with you to explore the self-beliefs and history that keep you feeling stuck. Together we will discover your gifts that can move you forward. I believe that the challenge of change offers an opportunity for self-discovery and personal growth that can lead to a more fulfilling and joyful life.

Welcome! Sometimes change and uncertainty feel like the only constant in life and we get overwhelmed. At other times we feel stuck, possibly not taking action we know is in our best interest due to emotions connected to issues and past events. I am here to provide you with a safe, caring and non-judgmental space to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. When we better understand why we feel the way we do, we can transform the beliefs and release the stuck emotions that limit us. My goal is to empower you to be more able to weather life's storms, respond to challenges, and make the positive changes you want.
