Licensed Professional Counselor
Imagine waking up every morning knowing you are on the right path. Being purposefully aware will open your eyes to your unique gifts as a person. How great does that feel? In 2005 I began practicing as a parenting and crisis pregnancy counselor. I have many years of experience working with families that have young children. I offer them a wide range of counseling and consulting services to guide them through all of life’s most complex transitions. My hope is to inspire women and their families during difficult transitions in their life. We all go in different directions as this world leads us through life’s struggles. Therefore, creating a healing presence can help guide us and our children to a healthy path.
