Endings. Messy middles. Bold beginnings.
Hi, I’m Fay, a certified coach/counsellor, author, and lifelong listener.
My own life was reshaped by profound endings – divorce, the loss of my former husband and father of our two sons, and the quiet changes in between. Those years taught me that endings are rarely tidy, yet they can be powerful turning points. I don’t rush people to “move on.” I help you close what’s complete, stand steady in the messy middle, and begin again with courage, clarity, and heart.
What we’ll do together
Honour what’s ending -with compassion and intention.
Navigate the messy middle -gather your energy, name what matters, and choose your next steps.
Begin your next chapter -grounded, clear, and true to who you are.
You don’t have to figure it out alone.
I provide a supportive space for thoughtful, capable women who know something is changing – whether through loss, separation, burnout, or a quiet inner knowing that says, “It’s time.”
My approach
Warm presence. Deep listening. Honest reflection. Practical tools.
I combine coaching and counselling skills with gentle challenge so you can make real, sustainable shifts -not just temporary fixes.
