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

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

Caregiving is a role many of us will take on at some time in our lives. While providing care for aging or ill family members, many caregivers are working full-time and caring for their own children. Are you exhausted, overwhelmed, or seeking support as you manage this loving and vital role? I care for caregivers, supporting them in their feelings of loss and in seeking balance. Even in the most challenging situations, progress can be made toward creating wellbeing in your own, important life. “There are only four kinds of people in the world. Those who have been caregivers. Those who are currently caregivers. Those who will be caregivers, and those who will need a caregiver.” ― Rosalyn Carter
