Hi, I’m Colleen.

I am a coach and an educator, with almost 20 years of experience working in higher education and non-profit organizations.  Whether I am facilitating leadership trainings in the woods, advising Harvard PhD students, or leading adventure travel trips, I freakin’ love helping create spaces for others to learn, grow, and thrive. 

My coaching services are rooted in the belief that we all have the power to lead purposeful lives, on our own terms.  My style is to create a no bullshit, wholehearted space that is intended to align your goals, values, and actions.  Together, we will work on ways in which you can better clarify what you really want and how to go about getting it.

I live in - you guessed it - a Little Blue House.  It is nestled in the woods on the traditional land of the Nipmuc.   There are a few humans, a couple of pups, and all sorts of awesome creatures that call this area home. And some - like the river otters! - will pop in occasionally and totally make my day.

I am a certified professional life and leadership coach through the Academy of Creative Coaching.  I have a BA in Women’s Studies and an MA in Higher Education and Human Development. 

So damn grateful that you’re here.
