This world is hard and we all need someone to come alongside of them to be their cheerleader. I have experienced first hand how trauma has impacted the life of families and individuals and do not want you to walk this path alone. Together we can collaborate to ensure that you are living a life of joy and freedom. I have lots of experience working with those in the child welfare system, whether it is children, biological parents, foster parents, adoptive parents or child welfare workers and I want to see you successful in all that you do.

Usually within the first month, clients begin to see improvement in their ability to manage life better.
I am experienced in and enjoy working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. I believe no one should have to walk alone through the challenges and difficulties of life. I consider it a privilege to provide support and encouragement to others while helping them to find the hope and healing God offers through His love and grace. I stress the importance of the therapeutic relationship as the means in which to help others gain personal growth and strength in order to live the life God has called them to live. I have been married 33 years and have four adult children.

As a part of life, struggles will come and are necessary for personal growth and the ability to successfully overcome adversity.
I work with adults who are experiencing a variety of concerns such as transitional issues, career issues, grief, anxiety, depression, trauma, parenting concerns, relational or communication conflict, and attachment issues. Additionally, I provide clinical supervision for limited licensed professional counselors.

What can I expect from life coaching?
Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.
Can a life coach help treat anxiety?
Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.
Can life coaching be done online?
Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.
How long does life coaching last?
Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
