Feeling Stuck in a Complex Situation?
When life or work feels overwhelming—when you can see the problem but can't find the path through—you don't need someone to give you all the answers. You need someone who can help you find your answers.
Whether you're rebuilding after a major life change, navigating workplace challenges, or trying to help your child succeed despite learning differences, complex situations require more than simple advice. They need someone who can help you break down the overwhelming into manageable steps.
That's exactly what I do.
How I Help You Find Your Way Through
Life Transitions & Rebuilding
Navigating divorce, loss, career changes, or other major life shifts. Having walked through significant transitions myself, I understand both the practical and emotional complexity of rebuilding your life.
Professional & Workplace Challenges
Stuck in complex work situations, leading teams through change, or improving processes that feel impossible to untangle. I help you see the path through multi-layered professional challenges.
Advocacy & Special Needs Navigation
Supporting your child with learning differences or special needs. As a former special education teacher, I can help you understand systems, advocate effectively, and find resources that actually work.
My Approach: From Stuck to Moving Forward
I don't believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Instead, I help you develop your own breakthrough moments through:
- ✓ Strategic Questions that help you see what you've been missing
- ✓ Breaking Down Complexity into manageable, actionable steps
- ✓ Finding Low-Hanging Fruit - small changes that create big momentum
- ✓ Practical Problem-Solving grounded in real experience, not theory
- ✓ Keeping You on Track when the path gets messy or overwhelming
My goal isn't to tell you what to do—it's to help you discover what works for your unique situation and give you the clarity and confidence to move forward.
