Work With Me

There are moments in life when the old version of you no longer fits, but the next version has not fully emerged.

You may be considering a major move, questioning a career, navigating an empty nest, rethinking a relationship, feeling burned out by success, or wondering quietly, Is this really the life I want?

These moments are not small. They ask something of us.

For over 25 years, I have helped people navigate profound personal change with clarity, courage, and compassion. My work is for thoughtful people standing at a crossroads who want more than advice. They want depth, insight, and a clear way forward.

Private Reinvention Intensive

A focused, high-impact session for individuals navigating a meaningful life transition.

This is for you if you are facing a decision, feeling stuck, or sensing that something in your life is ready to change.

Together, we will explore what is happening beneath the surface, clarify what you truly want, identify what is keeping you frozen, and create a grounded next-step plan.

This is not ongoing therapy. It is a private, strategic, deeply personal conversation designed to help you hear yourself clearly again.

Best for: major life decisions, moving abroad, career change, burnout, empty nest, relationship crossroads, identity shifts, and reinvention after 40.

The Next Chapter Circle

A small, intimate group experience for women navigating change.

The Next Chapter Circle is designed for women who are asking deeper questions about who they are becoming and what they want their next chapter to look like.

In a carefully held group, we explore identity, courage, fear, intuition, relationships, boundaries, and the quiet truths that often emerge during major transitions.

This is a space for reflection, honesty, and meaningful change — without performance, pressure, or pretending.

Executive Clarity Advisory

For leaders, founders, executives, and high-achieving professionals navigating complex personal or professional decisions.

Many successful people reach a point where the question is no longer, How do I achieve more? but rather, What now? What matters? What kind of life am I building?

Executive Clarity Advisory offers a confidential thinking partnership for people whose decisions carry weight — professionally, personally, and emotionally.

This work is especially suited for leaders navigating burnout, transition, succession, reinvention, identity shifts, or high-stakes decisions.

Retreats & Speaking

Meaningful experiences in extraordinary places.

Some environments give us permission to think differently.

Away from our routines, responsibilities, and familiar roles, we often become able to hear questions we have been too busy — or perhaps too afraid — to ask.

I offer psychologically informed workshops and transformational experiences for retreats, private gatherings, organizations, and communities throughout Europe and internationally.

Drawing on more than 30 years of psychological practice, my sessions combine insight, reflection, meaningful conversation, and practical tools. They are designed not simply to inspire people for an afternoon, but to help them see something about themselves or their lives differently.

Experiences can be designed as keynote conversations, 90-minute workshops, half-day sessions, or deeper programming integrated throughout a retreat.

I am also available to join select retreats as a guest expert, combining group experiences with a limited number of private sessions for participants.

What People Say

  • “There is something extraordinary about the way Colleen sees people. She is incredibly warm and easy to be with, but then she asks one question that somehow gets right to the heart of what you’ve been struggling to understand. I came to the retreat expecting a beautiful week away. I left seeing my life ... and what I wanted from it ... completely differently.”

    — Sarah M., Retreat Participant

  • “I’ve done retreats, workshops, and more personal development than I care to admit. This was different. Colleen brings enormous psychological depth without making anything feel clinical or heavy. She has a remarkable ability to create conversations that are intelligent, honest, funny, and unexpectedly profound. Months later, I am still making decisions differently because of what I discovered that week.”

    — Catherine R., Retreat Participant

  • “Colleen makes you feel completely at ease, and somehow that creates the space to be incredibly honest with yourself. There was no pressure to have some dramatic breakthrough. And yet, I did. I arrived feeling stuck between the life I had built and a life I was almost afraid to admit I wanted. I left knowing what my next chapter needed to be. It was one of those rare experiences that quietly changes you.”

    — Laura B., Retreat Participant

  • “I originally brought Colleen in because I thought our leadership team needed help communicating through a period of significant change. What happened went far beyond that. She understood the dynamics in the room remarkably quickly and helped us have conversations we had been avoiding for years. It changed how we communicate, how we make decisions, and frankly, how I lead. The impact on our team has been lasting.”

    — Michael T., CEO
