I offer coaching for building friendships and support. Meeting people and maintaining friendships as busy adults can be challenging. Whether you are in a new city, a new stage of life, or want to support friends and loved ones in challenging times, we can work together to build your confidence and strengthen your compassion. Are you struggling to navigate the end of a friendship? I support clients in the loss of connections and the creation of healthy new ones. "There are no strangers here; Only friends you haven't yet met." ~ William Butler Yeats

When we suffer from addiction or alcoholism in a family member, we can lose sight of our own health and wellness. Our powerless over the disease and our focus on the behavior of others drive us away from healthy boundaries and work on our own best life. There is hope for your situation to improve and happiness is possible whether the alcoholic is still drinking or not. “In the midst of winter, I finally learned that there was in me an invincible summer.” - Albert Camus

Transitions happen through our lives in big and small ways. As a coach I work with clients to identify their values and strengths, building a vision for what can be next. With that clear vision, we create thoughtful goals to move forward. It may be developing inspiring new work or moving from work to meaningful retirement; the transition from parenting to the empty nest, or the transition from being part of a couple to a fulfilling single life. I help clients experiencing a variety of transitions to move with intention and grace into the next chapter of life. “Light precedes every transition. Whether at the end of a tunnel, through a crack in the door or the flash of an idea, it is always there, heralding a new beginning.” – Theresa Tsalaky

Loss comes to all of us in different ways throughout our lives. In this post-pandemic era, I see clients with a range of challenges, many of them with underlying loss. Do you have ambiguous loss from estrangement or addiction in your family? Have you lost work, a relationship, or a sense of normalcy in your life? I work with clients in a supportive manner to name and acknowledge losses they are facing. I will accompany you as you are ready to move forward with a new, healthy vision. You can find courage, resilience and strength once again. Absorbing the pain of loss and integrating it into our life allows us to adjust to a new environment and begin to reinvest in a new life. “ All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another. ” — Anatole France
