I’m a Registered Nurse in the provinces of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. I graduated as an RN in 1997. I’m a Ciinde Certified Holistic Nurse and Nurse Coach Consultant, a Functional Nurse (Integrative Nurse Coach Academy), Evergreen Certified Trauma Professional, Evergreen Certified Certified Mindfulness-Informed Professional, a Certified Sleep and Science Coach and an End of Life Coach (Integrat
ive Nurse Coach Academy). Two years ago I found myself! I was experiencing being burnt-out from working as an RN in the Covid-19 pandemic. I knew I needed a different route in life and I stumbled upon The Ciinde (The Canadian Institute of Integrative Nursing Development and Education) completed my holistic nursing and nurse coaching certification and I haven’t looked back. I love being able to help people in practical ways. I’ve been burnt-out, overwhelmed, struggled with anxiety and also with chronic illness. I know how these things can feel and I would love to meet with you and give you some tools for your toolbox to help you to have coping strategies to be able to move forward. As a holistic health nurse coach I see you as a whole person, not just a problem or diagnosis. I will assist you with your journey of healing and self-discovery. I can work with you concerning any health challenges that you might have. I particularly have an interest in working people who are living with stress, burn-out, anxiety, hormonal concerns and sleep disturbances. Are you struggling with learning how to complete self-care? Do you have low self-esteem and low self-compassion? I’d love to guide you, give you practical tools and empower you towards making positive changes within your overall health and life. My work experience has included working in intensive care, ophthalmology, community nursing, long term care, palliative nursing and mental health. I have held nurse leadership positions including working as Director of Care leading a nursing home team through the Covid-19 pandemic. I’m married and have two grown children. Usually in my down time you will find me drinking good coffee with my husband, going for a walk along the beach, birding, taking photos or reading a good book! Not far from my side will be our Cockapoo, Max.
