My Story

Rosemary Hanley,  CMC, PCC
Certified Personal and Professional Life Coach

Initially my career goal was to become a psychologist.  My love for psychology, both theoretical and practical, grew as I continued to study: graduate program in school psychology at Towson University, career theory at Johns Hopkins and formal coach training through the Mentor Coach Training Program. I continued to add coaching expertise in ADHD and Executive Functioning Coaching, Mindfulness Based Stress Management, Wellness Coaching, and Grief Coaching.  I am drawn to those experiencing some very real loss and the desire to recover, redesign, and rebuild a joyful life. So I have become a life coach because my personal life and professional pursuits have undergone real transitions.  Although some might call these life changes simply stages, they are actually metamorphoses.  Every transformation requires courage, persistence, wisdom, faith, a sense of adventure, and a measure of humor.  My excitement about life coaching is fueled by the recognition that at each stage of life we proceed through our own unique metamorphosis. I believe that the process can be particularly productive and joyful when one chooses to partner with a coach who is dedicated to working for you and with you.
