Hello, I’m Helene …

A full-time entrepreneur Artist and Psychologist, now residing in Canada, I’ve lived in 6 countries while raising 3 children.

I know what it feels like to leave everything behind and start fresh not knowing the culture, the social codes, values, or language. You need to figure out how to settle your family into a new place while your partner is overworked, or you both are, only to possibly pack up and start again in a new country shortly thereafter. Not easy!

I’ve been on a roller coaster of emotions through the many transitions……. and that’s life.

As an educated professional with all the tools in my toolkit, my confidence and self-esteem were left fragile after being so worn. The energy to reinvent myself each time began to dwindle.

I love parenting but began to find it, especially demanding living abroad far from our support system of family, friends, and familiar culture.

Professionally, I’ve developed multiple careers, primarily focused on clinical psychology.

I’ve transitioned and run the gamut between running a private practice, full time work, part time jobs, and independent consulting, to no work visa possibility, and homemaker.

I arrived in Canada in 2013 with an entirely blank slate.

Along the beautiful journey of life, I collected many rich memories, experiences, and wisdom. Like all people, I’ve experienced the good with the bad… and found my marriage dissolved along the way.

What I’ve gained is powerful resilience and a strong sense of confidence. No matter where I am, I have the ability to create powerful connections and support systems, including a community of women I can rely on.

I’m now at home inside myself despite my surroundings.

I’m not alone, and neither are you... we are all connected on this journey.
