You’ve done everything possible to handle your pain on your own. Now, you want help from someone you can trust: someone with lots of life experience, insight, and empathy. If you are suffering from family/relationship issues, stage-of-life changes, or overwhelming emotions, I would love to partner with you on your path to growth and relief. Before becoming a therapist, I worked as a school teacher. Now, as a therapist, I help people learn how to live more joyfully. I am one of 8 siblings, the mother of 5 grown children, and a spouse of 40+ years. Over the years, I’ve personally navigated some pretty bumpy roads. I’m especially passionate about helping clients navigate their own life challenges. Engaging in therapy is a journey toward insight, change, and peace. I honor your courage in taking the first step.
