Having been on a healing journey myself, I know firsthand what it’s like to overcome an ongoing sense of overwhelm and grow in ways that positively impact relationships. My 20-plus years of combined education, professional and life experience has equipped me to help others in their healing and growth.

 

I’ve gained extensive training in the mind-body connection with three certificates in energy healing and a masters degree in Marriage and Family Therapy. I am also part of the Disaster Mental Health Team for the world’s largest volunteer network, the American Red Cross. So I have a passion for helping those in need.

 

My MFT training includes working in substance abuse and psychiatric acute and intensive care units, community based mental health and animal-assisted therapy in schools and foster care. I presented a workshop in 2018 at the annual Healing Beyond Borders conference.

 

Change happens from the inside out. It’s about taking a look at what’s going well and not well in your life, and how you experience the people and the world around you. Many of my clients come in with symptoms of anxiety and depression and once we have a better understanding of that, we uncover deeper questions and longings around one’s purpose, and finding one’s passion in life.

 

When I see clients light up and let go of what’s holding them back, I see them move forward and break the ties that were binding them. They’re better able to navigate life’s obstacles and feel more connected to themselves and others. They walk taller and with more confidence.
