Meet Coleen

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing therapy to individuals. The Story Shifter—Let your clarity define you in the end. Live life fully from the inside out. As we gain clarity and meaning about how life has shaped us, we get to re-choose how we perceive it and how it defines us. We can transform ourselves and life moments to serve us and the world for the highest good. My journey with counseling and coaching has been a lighted path for me to shift my own story.

We can transform ourselves and life moments to serve us and the world for the highest good.
