My Life Experience
I've been exactly where you are! Living a life of complications, challenges, and struggles. From raising a visually impaired child, surviving divorce, depression, and anxiety, as well as being caregiver to a mom with dementia and a husband who only just received a double lung transplant after years of chronic illness.
I have carried grief and loss throughout my life; experiencing tragic unexpected losses, as well as those from illness.
Losing my brother at the age of 22, and other close family and friends to tragic accidents, suicide, and even murder. I know these experiences can turn everything upside down.
From all of this, I have created a life filled with LOVE, POSSIBILITY and MAGIC.

My Approach
This is not one size fits all.
I approach each client as the unique human being that you are, knowing I have never heard "your" story. Through your story telling we will build a trusting relationship where I am able to guide you to open your heart to new and creative ideas about your life, and discover possibility is right in front of you.
No matter what you seek, I will guide you to an oasis of personal discovery and healing that will open you up to the courage, bravery, and creativity that are hidden within. You will learn how to embrace possibility and take steps to define the vision of your own authentically aligned life and take action to make it happen for yourself.
​
My Commitment​
Committing to a more fulfilling life, no matter where you are on life's timeline, is just that - a commitment, and it's a BIG one that will take a lot of dedication.
My commitment is to provide you with a safe space that offers accountability, understanding and support so you can experience transformation, healing and success in
LIVING LIFE YOUR WAY!
