I am a heart transplant recipient. I live daily with thoughts about the quality of life I will have and deal with pain management, medication challenges and managing multiple doctors’ visits while still managing my business and personal life.
I also am a wife and mother of three children, including twins. I understand the challenges of having multiple children and having a chronic illness.
Dealing with emotional ups and downs are a part of having a health issue. I work to support those challenges by sharing hope, love, grace and resilience.
I practice from a cognitive behavior theoretic perspective, which focuses on mind and behavior connections and positive thought processes. I also used solution focused therapy to achieve objectives in a short time period when the work is done.
You set the goal, and we work to accomplish it.
Counseling works best when you are vested in the process.
As a former educator of eleven years and counselor for over 14 years, my passion is to help people become the best they can. I love working with parents to equip them with a toolbox of options they can use to raise their children.
I speak at organizations, churches, and business events to help people find peace in their lives. This is necessary to find balance. I use stories and humor to connect with people talking in practical, immediately useful ways about having your best life.
