Your Remarkable Life
I work with career changers and retirees to create career and retirement roadmaps. This includes work on issues related to wellness, identity and purpose, relationships, leisure, spirituality, and volunteering or continuing work as well as finances.

What do you love most about your job?
I love working through the program with the client, and seeing the "Aha!" moment when he or she realizes "Hey, I can *DO* this!" I can see the energy level increasing in the client as he or she talks about the possibilities for achieving success.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I've successfully navigated my own career changes, from software professional to clinical counselor and then to career coach, and retired from the 9 to 5 world a few years ago to put my energies into my retirement and career coaching practice. It's a way to pass on to others what I've learned in my own journeys.
Why should our clients choose you?
I worked with hundreds of clients as a Master's level clinician before becoming involved in the coaching profession over 30 years ago; today, I'm a board certified coach and member of the Retirement Coaches Association. My own career experience has involved successful transitions to a different career (including obtaining university education in a different career) and a successful transition into retirement -- this makes me uniquely qualified to help others going through the same transitions.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
I use Zoom for online meetings and sessions with individuals, couples, and groups. In addition, services can be provided over the phone, or in person in the Greenville, South Carolina area.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
Moving the majority of sessions online using Zoom has been a big part of it. I find online meetings are preferable to masked in person sessions for at-risk clients because of the importance of facial expressions in communication. I have had both Pfizer vaccinations, as well as a recent booster. If a client and I do meet face to face, we can do so outdoors in nice weather or by practicing social distancing indoors.
Career Coaching
I use a preferences-based approach to help those considering a career change to find a career that they will be happy with. I use the Self-Directed Search and a career site called O*NET OnLine to help my clients do this. In addition to career changers, I've worked with a number of people looking to find the right college major or graduate program for their future goals.
Retirement Coaching
I offer retirement coaching that helps my clients design a Remarkable Retirement Roadmap that leads to a future they really look forward to. Coaching covers all of the five key areas of retirement: spiritual, mental, physical, social, and financial.
