Additionally I work with adults who are first responders or medical personnel struggling with work related traumatic stress.

Life can have so many ups and downs and it can be challenging at the best of times to navigate.

I know from my own journey, that I wouldn't have made it this far without the help of others. I’m grateful to those that have guided me and look forward to “paying it forward” by being a part of your healing journey!

I help women build resilience to weather the storms of life with grace and strength. I know the importance of being able to bounce back from loss, disappointment, or crisis.
