Inspired Life Coaching Coach

After a successful 10-year career in social work, I was looking for a change. I was lost, not knowing how to create a new beginning. A former colleague had gone on to become a life coach and she offered to work with me. I explored many options, and ultimately caught the coaching bug myself. Seeking a new way of working with people that would be autonomous, creative, and life-giving, I began my training at Coaching From Spirit and was certified there as a Master Coach. I’ve built a thriving practice based on word-of-mouth referrals and have been working full-time as a coach and consultant since 2003.

I also draw on personal experience in my coaching work. Faced with a rapid-fire series of major life transitions shortly after launching my business, I used coaching tools everyday to reconnect with myself and uncover strengths within—initially just to put one foot in front of the other, and then to create new dreams and new beginnings.

In addition to coaching for individuals and couples, I facilitate Inspired Women coaching groups to navigate life transitions, and Money Mindful workshops to help people develop a healthy relationship with money as they work toward their life goals.

My strength is in creating unique tools and exercises to usher in significant shifts for my clients. If you’re interested in exploring life coaching as a resource, please contact me and let’s chat!
