About Barbara:

I help people dig through trauma, fear and anxiety to discover, embrace and grow in their true identity, as the person they always knew they they were. I have over 10 years experience in the field of education, coaching and counselling. I have worked with people learning to live and identify with HIV and other chronic diseases; with bereaved people adapting to a new country and language as a result of war; with people from the LGBTQ+ community learning to express a new identity and to lead a different life; and with women experiencing social or cultural alienation due to a range of factors. In addition, I have personally gone through a journey of self-discovery, self-acceptance and growth in both my personal and professional life beyond and in spite of a lifetime of traumatic experiences, from childooh sexual abuse to domestic violence, workplace bullying and miscarriage. I am a highly-skilled practitioner with an innate ability to empathize and deeply connect with very diverse groups of people.

In these days when everyone is talking about the "new" normal can anyone describe that? 

I do not believe that we should settle into this as normal because, this, too, will pass. There will be something else that comes along and changes this normal. 

What you should be focused on is the "next" normal! Never stop trying to improve, prepare and adapt to an ever changing world! When I started the Fixed Ops Mastermind virtual group I was told, people like to go places with masterminds. Guess what! 

So, rather than adjusting to the time, why not be adjusting all the time!
