Why has she chosen to work with women over 55? The answer is simple and straightforward.  Women at this stage of their lives have experienced many life events, both positive and negative. Life events like divorce, death of loved ones, career changes and possible illness, to name a few, tend to happen in our lives as we are more mature.  Many women struggle to navigate through these changes successfully although they have the tools and resources to be successful. If a woman is “stuck,” and unable to move on in one area of her life, coaching with an experienced professional of the same age helps to move the individual forward and conquer challenges.

Coaching is not therapy. Although Ms. Johnston is a licensed board certified psychotherapist, in her Coaching practice, she utilizes a different approach based on Positive Psychology, Mindfulness practice, Mind/Body approaches and Motivational coaching methods.

Finding Peace

6-Week Workshop
Starts on Tuesday, November 18, 2025.

It is sometimes very difficult to find our center – the peaceful internal place we all possess but often do not tap into.  Whether we are discouraged by the tumult and chaos happening in our country and the world or whether we are experiencing challenging personal difficulties, we can learn ways to bring ourselves peace and compassion so that we can live our best lives in the present.

What My Clients Say

"When I signed up for the 8 weeks with Diane I thought I was simply going to learn how to meditate, something I have long wanted to learn. Well, the course turned out to be that so much more!! Along with 4 other students and with appropriate readings and conversation I learned so much more…about myself, about relating to others, about love, about life, about peacefulness and much more. Diane guided us throughout with kindness, knowledge and humor. I highly recommend this course with Diane to anyone who wants to broaden their ‘being’."
