Inner changes that begin during these years are mainly  psychological ones.  They are about inner shifts and personal transformation at a deeper level; they are not so much about age.   No two midlife journeys can ever be the same. 

How you navigate the twists and turns of emotions, self-image, the unknown, new decisions, and empty spaces in midlife has a direct effect on how you  will live your life in later years.

My book, Midlife Check-In, will be published in 2012.   It is an interactive and psychoeducational guidebook for women seeking answers to the urgent questions and concerns of midlife.
MIDLIFE CHECK-IN
The inner questions and challenges and the unique gifts of the middle years (late 30s through 60s) are a special focus in my practice.  I work with men and women in midlife who are seeking clarity, relief, and guidance.    Life  becomes unfamiliar... relation- ships  change..  and so do we. 

While some experiences in your middle years can feel overwhelming  and  hard  to  manage, they are the fuel for
transforming your life in  positive ways.
