About the Founder

Colleen came to Mind-Body wellness to resolve her family stressors which could sometimes be so intense she just wanted to hide under the covers. Her family went from turmoil to harmony using what she learned through decades of study and holistic practices. She wanted to help others find their way through their struggles and get back on their feet without spending years studying and practicing. She searched for the core underlying healthy human functioning and believes she has found it in The Framework which provide the core of her methodology.

As the creator of the Plexus Method™ and the Holistic Stages of Development™, she has pioneered a groundbreaking approach to understanding and working with emotions—one that empowers individuals to process, integrate, and harness their emotions as powerful allies rather than obstacles.

Colleen has spent years refining a system that addresses one of the greatest challenges people face: emotional instability and stress overload. She recognizes that many struggle with unprocessed emotions, reactive decision-making, and a lack of resilience when faced with life’s inevitable changes.

Instead of teaching suppression, avoidance, immersion, or rigid control over emotions, she offers a new way forward—one that fosters emotional strength, self-leadership, and sustainable well-being, through a framework that, once learned, will always be a valuable resource.

Emotional resilience is the foundation of confidence and success in every area of life. When people learn to process emotions effectively, they make better choices, build healthier relationships, and create the stability they need to thrive. Her programs provide a structured, accessible framework to help individuals move from survival mode into a state of empowerment—where they can lead themselves and others with authenticity and ease.

Through her innovative teachings, Colleen is shifting the way people experience emotions, stress, and transformation. She believes that by equipping individuals with the tools to understand, integrate, and direct their emotions, they not only change their own lives but also contribute to a more grounded, resilient, and connected world.

Her mission is simple to help people develop the resilience and inner strength to navigate life’s challenges by learning how to work with their emotions.
