I help women and men discover and explore the rich potential for growth and transformation available during the retirement transition and in the decades following.

It’s my passion to support people over sixty-five to enter the next phase of their lives with a unique and actionable plan, feeling well-resourced, energized, and full of positive anticipation for their futures.

I am a mother and grandmother, psychotherapist/coach/counsellor and an author, a lover of meaningful connection, community, growth and the natural world.

My formal education took me from an undergraduate arts degree, to training as a registered nurse, where I worked in acute care psychiatry and mental health for a decade.

In my forties, I obtained a masters in counselling psychology and was a founding member of a thriving counselling center where I enjoyed a thirty-five year counselling and psychotherapy general private practice working with clients 18 to 80.

For the past decade, I’ve supported women and men to discover and explore the rich potential for growth and transformation available during the retirement transition and in the decades following.

Love of family ~ in 2020, delight in welcoming a grandchild ~ community, and nature have been themes in my life ~ as has a curiosity about and love of study of mind/body/spirit connectedness and a layperson’s fascination with neuroplasticity and epigenetics. I also take delight in poetry, good stories and metaphors.
