My website

At some point during our lifetime, we all face problems and/or crisis. You may be struggling with an issue or perhaps you see your child experiencing difficulties. I am here to help you walk through this journey and offer hope for you in the meantime. I'd love to meet you and hear your story!

With 25+ years of experience as a school counselor, I am finding that my new passion is within the adult population. I love helping adults navigate parenting issues with children, teens or adult children as I have journeyed through these seasons of life myself. I am also finding great joy in walking alongside senior adults as they transition to this stage.

I believe that individuals, young and old, have a story. I enjoy working within the story framework to help my clients regain or take control of their lives whether it be through coping strategies, setting boundaries or reshaping perspective. Let me help you begin to see your story & your role in shaping it towards a brighter and more fulfilling future.

I love coming alongside clients who are working through different transitions in life, whether that is transitioning into adulthood for the first time after graduation, entering into the empty nester season or adjusting to the unique stressors of caring for an aging parent. I truly enjoy working with senior citizens who are navigating the aging process themselves. Life always includes change.
