I would love to have the opportunity to partner with you on your search for a deeper understanding of yourself and your story.

Are you grieving what used to be? Do you feel lost in life right now? Are you contemplating a divorce or navigating life post-breakup? Are you struggling with parenting? Do you feel like you are in a mid-life crisis of sorts? There are certain times in our lives when transitions define us. Some of life’s transitions can lead us into dark nights of the soul, coming with fear, confusion, anxiety, depression, resistance, anguish, and grief. They force us to confront our values, beliefs, and priorities and to know ourselves more deeply. I provide a safe space for people in difficult times, making it to the other side of a transition.

I am passionate about working with people who are ready to be free of the false beliefs about who they are and to connect with the love and wisdom and light that lives within. As we learn to break the identification with what we are not, we access freedom. As part of this journey, I believe humor is critically important. Taking ourselves and life a little less seriously supports letting go. My first published book, Stress Free in 30 Seconds is subtitled "A Slightly Irreverent Approach to Navigating Life's Challenges" and that, I believe, is what it's all about.
