What got me to where I am today
Working in the areas of psychiatric mental health, community, and family nursing in many settings, I have come to be convinced that we can do better in helping people live healthy, whole, meaningful lives. As a lifelong learner, I have training in NVC, EFT, Mindfulness, Grief Recovery, and Mind in the Making, and am always adding to my toolbox!
After 30+ years of nursing and raising 6 amazing human beings, I was trained and certified as a Dreambuilder coach and Life Mastery Consultant through the Brave Thinking Institute. As a transformational life and family coach I have been integrating strengths-based holistic principles in support of individuals and families for over 6 years.
I have learned much through all my failures and successes through education and the school of life.
The knowledge, strategies, and tips I offer will help you bring more JOY, ease and meaning to your life, with fewer hard lessons and less anxiety!!

Testimonials
I “connected” with Sue before I had any idea she was a Life Mastery Consultant. She has a wonderful and easy way of relating on a personal level. I was at a point in my life where I wanted to move forward with some plans and dreams but really didn’t have a clue on how to get there. Sue suggested a small group study incorporating the Life Mastery skills and it was exactly what I needed. Sue is a thoughtful facilitator, a very experienced and talented Life Mastery coach, and a firm believer in the power of Spirit. I have made friends for life and I feel like my life is back on track.

GAME CHANGER!!! I cannot overstate how my life and mind have been transformed since I began working with Sue Ellen. I was in a place in my life where I felt stuck, lost and unfulfilled, like I was spinning my wheels and getting nowhere. Traditional talk therapy just wasn't working for me and I often felt drained and hopeless after rehashing my problems with a therapist for an hour. I knew I needed to try something different and Sue Ellen's unique approach, tools and wisdom were exactly what I needed!
After just a few sessions, I have been able to identify the root causes of my dissatisfaction and learned to transform my thoughts, behavior's and beliefs. I am using the tools and techniques that I have been introduced to and am experiencing breakthroughs and growth like never before in my life! I am filled with hope and excitement for my future and I am finally creating the life that I have dreamed of. Thank you for helping me transform my life Sue Ellen!

For much of my adult life, I have struggled with my opinion of myself as an artist. Sue Ellen gently guided and encouraged me to step out into “DreamBuilder” and “Life Mastery” to nurture my approach to that tender talent. I learned that we are all co-creators with the Divine. As a result of the ongoing life work, I am ready to recognize and embrace this precious gift! I have a studio space brimming with work being prepared for a local show and a graphic artist busily crafting a website where I can share and connect with future patrons.
The inner joy and peace that comes with this transformation is truly a blessing! I am living my life as an artist, full of gratitude to my dear friend and mentor, Sue Ellen, and I wish everyone the joy of this voyage of discovery!

Despite a career in communications, I often struggled to articulate my innermost thoughts, especially when I sought understanding and acceptance from some of the most important people in my life. Sue Ellen has an incredible gift for listening and leading with compassion, and helped me connect with the vocabulary I'd felt within me but hadn't yet spoken. Her strength, calmness and optimism inspire me to stay rooted in my own true nature, and to speak up in ways that not only help me, but also help the others around me. Her coaching has been a tremendous blessing that's brought more ease to life's challenges. Thank you, Sue Ellen!

I have gone through both the Dream Builder and Life Mastery courses and found them to be life changing. Sue Ellen's mastery of the subject matter is most evident as she guides you forward on your own journey. Her life experiences as a parent, a nurse for the sick and dying along with her open and caring demeanor made for a rich and rewarding experience as I discovered new aspects of who I am and what I can become as a person and as a Business Coach. I am a better listener and communicator because I now operate in the space around the words where meaning is found and understood. My time spent working in and on these programs was well invested through Sue Ellen's careful and insightful guidance.

I've twice done the Dreambuilder experience with Sue and both times have gained some insight from the experience. She is passionate about sharing this methodology of Creating Your Dream and very helpful in bringing people together to support each other in realizing the possibilities of what we can each achieve. I, personally, enjoyed the experience of sinking into giving consideration to what my perfect life would look like, sound like, feel like and even smell like. Her encouragement, understanding, empathy and support helps you build a dream greater than you may have imagined. I've even appreciated her gentle nudging around potential progress some months after the commitment of the experience. She's a great COACH and it supported my needs for community, connection, learning and growth perfectly!

I absolutely LOVE working with Sue Ellen! She has been my life coach through all the programs that she offers. ("Dream Builder", "Life Mastery", "Working with the Law" and "Into Your Genius"). I have found the programs to help me handle everyday situations (both big and small) with ease and confidence. I no longer suffer from Extreme anxiety, and have noticed a total shift in my attitude towards life. (For the Positive!!) I've also noticed that if you apply the effort you DO SEE RESULTS!! She is extremely encouraging, supportive, knowledgeable and fun! She is amazing and the programs she offers are great!! Thanks, Sue Ellen!

Sue Ellen has been a great support system in helping me design the life I’ve been dreaming of with my business and my life future. The program expanded my vision and allowed me to feel more confident in my mission and passion in my own Nurse Health Coaching business. My main goal was to learn how to advance my business and get more clients. I accomplished this from shifting my mindset with some of the coaching tools in the system and was able to attract more opportunities. Having the accountability of the group was great and sharing insights about one another was super helpful. The learning practices and action plans were beneficial in creating the life I deserve. My heart’s path is open to caring and servicing more families and clients. Lisa~ New Hampshire
