Meet Buffy Collison
I am an inspired and dedicated creative depth coach who offers individual coaching as well as facilitates workshops sharing this powerful journey work with other women. It is a gift to support my clients in these tumultuous times, when so many are feeling challenged but deeply desire soul growth.
By focusing on individual sessions, I offer space for soulful connection, client guided creative inquiry and depth work. Many come to navigate grief and loss, to redefine life after retirement, or to tend more deeply to their soul’s desires. Along the way, they encounter rich emotional landscapes that open doors to new directions, clearer choices, fuller expression, and a felt sense of expansion.
My life path led me to this work after more than twenty‑five years in the corporate world, climbing my own “Tower of Achievement.” Retirement became a profound turning point, opening into a kind of personal renaissance.
My experience in depth-oriented and creative transformational work spans more than twenty years. In that time, I’ve explored various approaches and modalities that eventually led me to train extensively in Jungian-based journey work and expand my life’s work as a Certified Creative Depth Coach through JourneyPath® Institute.
Along the way, I came to see how early influences, like growing up with a vivacious, perfectionistic mother, shaped my own drive and sense of self. Through years of inner exploration and depth work, I’ve gently unwound layers of relationships and grief across different seasons of my life. In this, I've been able to return to the essence of who I was and who I truly am.
This journey has allowed me not only to heal and grow, but to thrive and shine in a more authentic way. Today, I bring that lived experience, along with years of training and practice, to the women I work with.
It is both my calling and my privilege to offer this work through individual coaching and small group circles, allowing the experience of reflection and transformation to ripple outward beyond my own life.
Outside my coaching work, I find nourishment and inspiration through many meaningful experiences:
-
Living in nature on five acres in Colorado with my partner and our two dogs
-
Creative expression through quilting, fiber arts, and multimedia art
-
Being a mother of adult children and a grandmother
-
Living in Singapore for 15 months, which expanded my cultural perspective
-
Participating in shamanic work in Peru
-
Studying the Labyrinth in Chartres, France
I am a life long learner. These experiences continue to shape my curiosity, creativity, and reverence for the powerful potential of engaging life and honoring the many paths of personal transformation.
