The Full Story
After years of being a full-time mom and navigating the ups and downs of personal, parenting, and marital struggles, I found myself yearning for something that was just for me—something where I could make a real difference. At 42, I decided it was time to take the leap and pursue my passion for helping others, so I dove into studying psychology, earning both my undergraduate and honours degrees. That’s how Thrive Counselling and Coaching came to life.
My journey has been about more than just personal growth—it's been about bringing freedom, balance, and fulfillment to those I work with. I understand what it’s like to feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of the path forward, and I'm here to help you navigate those challenges. Whether you're dealing with the complexities of relationships, personal struggles, or simply striving for a more meaningful life, I'm committed to walking alongside you.
Now, at 48, I'm embracing a new adventure with online digital marketing, expanding my expertise so I can support even more people in their journeys. I believe in your potential, and together, we can work towards a life that truly resonates with who you are and what you value. Let’s embark on this journey together—I’m here to help you find your way to the freedom and fulfillment you deserve.
