Meet Suzi
M.S. Psychology & Certified Positive Psychology Specialist
My entire life I have had a compelling desire to encourage others to appreciate their unique goodness and grow their strengths. For scientific integrity, I gained a master’s in psychology from Divine Mercy University and a specialization in positive psychology from UPenn. I utilize science-backed tools to help clients unlock their strengths and achieve personal growth and flourishing in every aspect of life—physical wellness, relationships, emotional resilience, faith, virtues, and gratitude.

Suzi is an incredibly gifted Catholic life coach. I came to her in a season of transition. Our youngest had just left for college, I was becoming an empty nester, I felt unsure about my marriage, and as a coach and entrepreneur I was not sure how I should grow next in my work. I was worried, sad, and nervous about what this next phase of life would look like and how to navigate it.
Through our work together, Suzi has helped me see myself more clearly and with more kindness. She has helped me deepen my understanding of my God-given strengths, grow in my faith, and discover so many possibilities for living an enriching and purposeful life. I now feel much more confident, hopeful, grounded, and optimistic. I am deeply grateful for her guidance and support.

Connecting with a Catholic life Coach has been a transformative experience for me. Suzi is so supportive ! She listens attentively, has really helped me get unstuck. I was struggling with life transitions, retirement, caring for my Dad while grieving over the loss of my Mom. She helped me identify my strengths & coached me through developing the steps for taking action & asking for help. Having a coach who can appreciate & share my faith was a comfort. Opening in prayer is perfect way to reduce anxiety & settle into the conversation. She introduced me to the daily examen which focuses on blessings & gratitude. Even in the midst of struggles God is with us & if we take time to reflect we can see where He was present in ordinary life. It's a beautiful practice. I am often moved to tears reflecting on how little moments are really big ones.

"Working with Suzi has already been really helpful for me. I came in, feeling anxious, overwhelmed, and a bit disconnected from myself and my faith. Suzi has a calm, grounded way of helping me make sense of what I’m feeling while also bringing everything back to God in a way that feels natural and supportive. She has helped me shift my perspective, feel more rooted, and take small steps toward the peace and steadiness I’ve been wanting. I’m grateful for the clarity, the encouragement, and a sense of hope she’s given me.

"I found Suzi on Catholic Life Coaches. Working with Suzi has been amazing! She is so easy to talk to, really cares & guides with suggestions & support to get “unstuck” from the challenges of life. The daily examen has been a game changer!"

"Suzi helped me take a look at how I was speaking to myself and I learned to have more empowering self talk. She helped me create strategies to take steps forward. It was super helpful to use my strengths, some of which I didn’t recognize in myself before. She is fun to talk to and I look forward to our meetings."

"Suzi has great empathy. She has an innate ability to read people’s emotions and to reach out when someone is in need, even when others might never suspect there was a need. She brings to her practice not only those gifts, being the remarkable person she is, but also all her education and training. Her positive approach is very helpful. She is dedicated and hard working and will do everything possible to help her clients achieve their best lives as they become their best selves."
