I bring a roaming mind and a willing heart to explorations that have taken me from life on a wilderness farm in Western Maine as a hand-weaver designing textiles for recognized national brands to cooking on an ocean racing sailboat.
I have lived in Camden for 30 years, integrating my journeys through Jean Houston’s Mystery School, membership in the American Holistic Medical Association, and ongoing trainings in many health supporting practices. My passion for plants and creativity weave together to form the foundation of a practice dedicated to support the essence in each one of us.
I am the first Certified Professional Life Coach in Maine (1997), the first Certified Zentangle Teacher in Maine (2010), and I am also a certified (2005) Prepare for Surgery, Heal Faster facilitator
I am also trained as a life coach. As a coach with a specialty in adult ADD, I work with adults to resolve issues such as organization, planning, and impulse control.
I am a mother and gardener and have never met a workshop description that didn’t have me ready to register. I am a co-founder of the Midcoast chapter of the Maine Women’s Network and a founding member of Destination Wellness Midcoast Maine.
