Each path forward is unique and yet there are themes and commonalities that unite us in our journey toward increasing happiness, fulfilment and freedom. My road to coaching has been a long and delightful journey. I began my professional career in healthcare as a Chiropractor. I have corporate experience as a Learning and Development professional. I have entrepreneurial experience as the co-founder of a web-based education company. I work with private and corporate clients to teach mindfulness meditation and to provide coaching. My experience and education as a healthcare provider gave me a strong background in evidence-based care and treatment. I have training in critically evaluating scientific studies and practice applying the recommendations that come out of good research. My methods are evidenced-based and scientifically informed. I am a fellow traveller in this weird and wonderful journey of life. I have been cultivating happiness, fulfillment and deeper connection for decades. The fruits of my work have provided a renewable source of energy and a deep appreciation of the preciousness of life that I believe is accessible to all. Compassion, contentment, connection and a greater sense of satisfaction in what we already have are trainable skills that can be practiced and cultivated. I help clients create a solid foundation for growth and well-being so that they can clarify and accomplish their goals. Whether you are interested in Mindfulness Meditation Training or Coaching we begin with a conversation to explore your goals and strengths and uncover what may prevent you from fully engaging with your life. I am a Certified Integral Coach with New Ventures West and A Certified Mindfulness Meditation Teacher as well as a Meditation Mentor. I am also a Professional Certified Coach (PCC) with the International Coaching Federation. As a mindfulness teacher and practitioner, I have been trained in the tradition of Western Insight practices and I currently practice Shinzen Young’s Unified Mindfulness System. I am trained in Gene Gendlin’s Focusing and have done extensive training in the Enneagram. My work with clients fuses Mindfulness, Compassion Practices, Focusing, the Enneagram, inquiry, reflection and behavioural experimentation applied in practical ways to help a client shift to gain deeper insight into what makes them happy and how to live more fully.
