Hi, I’m Jane. I’m an animal lover, a gardener, a trained mental health counselor and now work as a coach. I specialise in working with people who feel stuck, are navigating life challenges and transitions or who need help to live more fulfilling and meaningful lives.
I’m also in 12 step recovery and have been for 22 years (a day at a time). I love working with people who are also navigating the emotional journey of recovery.
I customize each coaching relationship and journey to my client’s needs. But what always stays the same is how I show up:
I am Empathetic - I am walking with you on this journey. And I get it.
I am Welcoming & Accepting - people feel at ease with me, able to be vulnerable and take off their armor.
I am Communicative - I have a conversational approach that draws people out and goes deeper.
I am Insightful - I strive to see underneath the surface and help you to see more clearly.
I am Direct yet Caring - I provide gentle guidance and am willing to push when needed.
I am Committed to doing my own work - I am also on a journey of recovery and growth.
How clients may feel before working with me:
You feel stuck or dissatisfied in your life, relationship, job, etc.
You struggle with your identity - who are you outside the roles you play or have played.
You’re a people pleaser - taking care of others, often before you take care of yourself.
You know there is more you’re meant to experience in life, but you’re not sure how to get there.
How clients may feel after working with me:
You feel more confident, whole and connected to yourself and others.
You have a deeper understanding of yourself, and how to work with inner obstacles that may arise.
You feel more energized, motivated and excited about your life, relationships and work.
You no longer feel alone.
What clients are saying
“Jane has helped me tremendously with listening to myself, honoring myself, and learning to make choices that support my life force. In my time working with her my inner life has changed tremendously as has my outer life. I'm much more empowered and able to speak up for myself and have much more ability to work with old thought patterns and feelings that used to hold me back. In this time I've also bought a house, changed careers, and am living the life that I want to live, which I was unable to do before.”
“Jane is gifted at viewing things from a different perspective...when things seem at a dead end, she is able to shine a light on alternative ways of thinking or approaching a challenge. She is trustworthy and reliable. As a coach/counselor myself, I think Jane is a natural born coach. She has always displayed fierce advocacy for people she loves and works with.”
