I’m glad you are here. It may seem like a small step, but being here signifies your curiosity, your search for hope, guidance, or connection—all invaluable pursuits. Connection is fundamental; it unlocks the capacity to share our struggles, find support, and ultimately heal. I am deeply passionate about connection because it enables us to navigate tough times and find the strength to move forward.

With a background in teaching, I have always been eager to forge meaningful connections with others and help people like you grow and uncover your own potential. As a mother of four—two adopted daughters and two biological sons—I have firsthand experience with the joys and challenges of parenting, including the complexities of supporting both special needs and gifted children. I’ve also supported my aging parents through the gradual transitions that come with later life, which has deepened my understanding of how family dynamics evolve over time. These experiences, along with the ongoing journey of marriage—navigating communication, compromise, and shared responsibilities—have shaped my belief in the importance of empathy, patience, and teamwork in all relationships.

As my children grew and my roles within the family shifted, I found myself drawn more and more toward the work I truly love: supporting individuals one-on-one through life’s challenges. That path led me to pursue a master’s degree in counseling, where I discovered deep satisfaction in creating therapeutic connections rather than managing full classrooms. While I focus on supporting children, I also find great fulfillment in assisting adolescents and parents as they navigate life’s complexities. Life can be overwhelming and, at times, profoundly difficult. Whether you are seeking support for child or yourself, I am here to provide a compassionate and safe space where you will feel heard, understood, empowered, and, most importantly, connected to someone who genuinely cares about your well-being.
