Counselling Therapy:
There may come a time in your life when you realize that extra support, practical tools and an effective healing and self-empowerment process is needed from a qualified professional. It might be due to anxiety, depression, a transition or crisis at home or at work, parenting challenges, a relationship breaking down, or because of residual effects of past trauma. Whatever it may be, I invite you to contact me, for a complimentary conversation; after hearing a sampling of what is troubling you (as a person or as a couple), I will inform you on modalities and approaches I would utilize to help you and generate a sense of relief, repair and restoration of a fuller, more authentic life.

My practice is inclusive of a wide array of individuals and couples of various age range, some of whom may be neuro-divergent, and or from a diversity of cultures and ethnicity.

Since 2009, I have been leading informative and inspirational seminars, full or ½ day workshops, breakout sessions, and, since 2021, webinars; all of which provide reflective and solution-focused processes to support major work/life transitions, particularly retirement:

What’s Next: 10 Success Factors to Best Manage Retirement
The What’s Next seminar/workshop is updated yearly and is based on my expertise as a Certified Retirement Coach, which includes guidance and important information on the 10 success factors of preparedness to turn retirement into a purposeful, exciting and balanced re-engagement. This learning event process includes thought-provoking written exercises and discussions, inspiring stories, proactive physical and mental health recommendations for wellbeing and longevity, along with paradigm shifting real-life examples. 

Through professional development in 2025, I achieved a new certification in the art of Forest Bathing Guidance and Forest Therapy.

What is Forest Bathing and Forest Therapy?

In the words of Amos Clifford, who first brought this art and science from Japan on the American continent…

“Forest bathing is not the same thing as hiking. The destination in forest bathing is “here”, not “there”. The pace is slow. The focus is on connection and relationships.”

Forest bathing guidance provides an immersive, mindful sensory experience in a forested terrain, resulting in the strengthening of our innate interconnection with nature.
