ABOUT
HELEN HIPP
Helen Hipp has had her own kind of safari through the land
of a large family. She was always exploring new ways to define herself. There are many ways to
navigate the waters of life says Helen. “You may ride in a canoe, sailboat,
motorboat, or you may find yourself on the back of a pink hippo!”
With a mindset that centered on creating opportunities out
of obstacles, Helen explored career opportunities, by connecting her personal
experiences (parenting a child with special needs) with her beliefs,
professional skills, and aspirations.
Helen received her M.A. in counseling and began her career
as a psychotherapist to help people find answers for their life problems. Her
work eventually evolved into a coaching practice, WithinU Life Coaching,
focusing on individuals with special needs and their families.
Helen has authored articles for Family Works and Washington
Family Magazine and written multiple self-help articles published by ezine.com
where she is viewed as an expert in her field. She has been a contributor as a
special needs consultant to FOX44 News in Burlington, Vermont.
In addition to her work, Helen has written two children’s
books creating a very effective way to motivate kids of all ages to meet their
challenges with self-acceptance, confidence and understanding.
Her debut children’s book, A Different Kind of
Safari, released in 2013 addresses the many questions life asks by offering
up lighthearted, ever-changing perspectives that transform personal challenges
into opportunities. Once again, the engaging safari family, led by Rosie the
Pink Hippo inspires, and help you see your life differently in her new
book, Rosie and Friends Positively Different. With a cast
characters experiencing real-life issues such as anxiety, fear, physical
differences and poor self-esteem, Helen Hipp’s adventure books provide children
with the opportunity to identify, understand and feel supported by the
characters handling of similar fears, interests, and concerns.
