Many times in life we find ourselves in painful places we never dreamed we'd be. As an adult woman with three children, ages 1, 7 and 9, I found myself in one of those places. With good counsel, I was able to not only survive, but thrive and, over time was able to heal and see beyond the pain of the past to enjoy the beauty of the present and look forward to the wonder of the future. It's been over 20 years, but I still remember what it felt like to walk into the counselor's office on that first day.

Counseling is not just for those experiencing a life crisis or a current difficulty. Counseling is an opportunity to learn new skills, gain new insights, and position oneself for increased health and wellness. My style is a “hodgepodge”, meaning it depends on what a person needs in that moment. One day we may learn coping skills and the next, we may be identifying how personality characteristics contribute to protecting your sense of self. Mind, body, and spirit impact each other, which can also be described as a holistic approach. We will not just look at what you think and feel, but your lifestyle, environment, & relationships.

I help adults struggling to form deep and meaningful relationships with others as a result of lonely or painful childhood experiences. My ideal client is motivated for change and is open to developing a curiosity about his or her inner experiences.
