I am crazy about my husband, grown up kids and grandkids! I am a researcher, coach, psychotherapist, consultant, facilitator of deep conversations and of personal growth and learning. I have a PhD in Mind-Body Medicine: Health Systems from Saybrook University, a Master's degree in Clinical Social Work and a Bachelor's degree in Psychology. I am passionate about personal and organizational health and believe both require a foundation of positive relationships. My dissertation research is on women who rise above adversity to create nurturing lives for their children. I help bring wholeness in mind-body and spirit to individuals and organizations. I think that life and work should be "good for you." I help people design lives that feed the soul and where they can engage their passion and do their best work. I have worked as a psychotherapist for 18 years with individuals, couples and families.

I am a certified Master Personal & Executive Coach. I offer personal Life Design for those wanting to create optimal lives that promote health and well-being. I also work as a consultant helping organizations create culture change. My speciality is training coaches to support that change. When I am not working, you will often find me riding my beautiful Azteca horse up in the mountains.
