My Story...

what I’ve been through (and what that means for you...)

 

I started out training as a therapist (MSc. and worked in a practice speciallizing in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy) and then became a Certified Human Resources Professional (CHRP) with larger corporations and consultant (CMC) for smaller family businesses where I first fell in love with coaching. As a certified executive/performance coach (EMCC) I worked in corporate settings and became a life coach for private clients. 

​

In semi-retirement things got interesting; living half the year in Costa Rica I continued to do coaching online and spent the rest of my time golfing, practicing yoga, and indulging in cocktails with friends at sunset. All was good, that is, until I didn't wanna get outta bed.

​

I was diagnosed with clinical depression; it baffled me that I could be depressed while living, what I thought was, my best life.  Well, it turned out, I suffered from what's called 'perfectly hidden depression'. Nobody would have guessed, least of all me. I had healing to do at the sub/unconscious level. As they say, we only use 5% of our conscious brain and my issues were in the 95% part beyond my awareness; controlling a lot more of my life than I thought.   

 

Depression was Mother Nature's way of forcing me to deal with what I should have dealt and discovered types of journaling to meet the version of myself I didn't know existed. 

​

The practice I developed for myself has been tranformative and I love sharing it with others... ​
