About me

Before becoming a life coach in 2021, I worked as Ia counsellor and psychotherapist. in private practice for twenty years, I retired in 2011 to care for my dad, After he died I trained and qualified as a life coach,   It is so fulfilling to empower others to face their challenges and live meaningfully with greater autonomy,  My journey confirms that transformation is available to us at any time in our life.

While life transitions are a natural part of life, we can find them stressful - in both my professional and personal life I have found coaching to be very helpful in gaining greater clarity..  Transitioning into creating a new career late in life required a lot of courage and resilience: to face unseen challenges.  Even though there are many transferrable skills from therapy to life coaching, coaching  looks at the past while moving towards the future -  thriving and resilience are part of the encouragement I have experienced both as a coaching client and as a life coach.
