As the go-to coach for smart, creative people who want to overcome challenges, get things done, and get more out of life, I've coached individuals, facilitated groups, and delivered inventive workshops on four continents. 
I've written two dozen books about
  • personal growth
  • creativity
  • coping in times of crisis
  • self-worth
  • goal setting & planning
  • getting things done
  • overcoming procrastination
  • overcoming perfectionism
  • overcoming emotional eating
  • overcoming regrets
  • how to make the most of the coming year
  • how to be happier
  • how to make the most of a milestone birthday such as your 40th or 50th
  • how to make the most of your retirement
I earned my Masters and Ph.D. in Psychology at the University of Michigan. My ongoing education focuses on fine arts and personal development.
​
I co-founded The DaVinci Dilemma -- a website devoted to helping creative people find solutions to manage their many ideas, projects, and talents.

As a prize-winning international journalist/photographer, I've written for every major newspaper in my native Canada plus many major magazines and public radio. In addition to writing articles, short stories, feature length screenplays and teleplays, I'm a royalty-earning lyricist. As well, I co-wrote and co-produced a short film. 

In terms of other creative fields, my hand-crafted jewelry and one-of-a-kind ceramic and glass vessels have been featured in galleries and art fairs in Southern California, where I am a member of three fine arts Guilds. My metal sculptures, textiles, and mixed media works have been in juried exhibitions. I co-founded an improv comedy troupe, The Improvaholix. I also dabble in painting, mosaics, paper crafts, dance, and the culinary arts. My newest passion is learning to play bass guitar.

These diverse experiences give me a substantial foundation to support my clients in expressing their creativity, channeling it productively, and handling challenges along the way.
