Well-being and Menopause Coach.
.jpg)
I help people to have more good days by developing an everyday life practice that meets them wherever they are, with whatever it is they need. I draw from positive psychology, transactional analysis, somatics and neuroscience, but also the science of wellbeing, culture, nutrition, feminism, really anything that might help to understand what it means to be a person in this world, and how we can possibly do life with all that life can contain. I also work with women in mid-life, particularly negotiating shifts associated with the (peri)menopause. 1% of my practice goes towards initiatives that support better emotional and mental health for everyone.
