Time to wake up! The planet desperately needs our gifts! Let's resolve personal issues, clean house, uncover our purpose and shine joy into the troubled mess limping along around us. What holds us back is so small compared to our essential nature. However we hold our lives, we must recognize them as sacred, precious and finite. Join me in the goal of self-purification and celebration, where we commit to living our truth, from an awakened willingness to heal and love and serve. Nothing else really matters; however bleak our darkest days seem they have no power to equal the fire of ignition. Let's toast to interesting times!

You find yourself consumed by your thoughts, generally future-tripping or ruminating about the past. It's a real struggle to be present and focus. Your thought process is exhausting; decisions are hard to make and you lack clarity. It's as if you lost yourself somewhere along the way and feel disconnected from your authentic self. I understand what you are experiencing and I want you to know, there is hope! I guide people struggling with anxiety, perfectionism, fear, and self-doubt to get unstuck, find inner calm, build confidence, and re-connect to their amazing, radiant, and joyful self so they can move forward in their lives.

Maybe you've been struggling to feel like yourself for a while now, and have been hesitant to reach out for help. I'm glad you're here. Sometimes life loses its spark and sense of meaning and it's hard to find the way. Life can feel like a heavy burden, with feelings of hopelessness, sadness, or meaninglessness. Maybe you no longer want to participate in the things you once enjoyed. You find yourself isolating, or avoiding life. If you're tired of struggling and feeling bad about yourself and life, I can help. While these circumstances may have been the past, it doesn’t need to be your future.

I love working with couples as well as individuals interested in hike or nature-based therapy. From our very first session you will take home practical tools for both communication and relaxation. In moments of stress, you will have less blaming ways to express what you need to keep things from escalating. For those times when you do lose your cool, you will know more about calming yourself down before saying something you regret. I'll help you learn to be kinder to yourself, to be aware of how you talk to yourself. For starters, don't believe everything you think!
