About

Your journey to a healthier life can begin here.

I believe in a strengths based approach and challenge people to seek new perspectives in navigating through their lives. I enjoy meeting new people and and working with them to help find renewed confidence in themselves and their abilities. Working with all ages, I provide support to better manage daily stressors and/or relational issues while fostering self empowerment. Life can get complicated. You don't have to go through it alone. I am here to help. *As a Returned Peace Corps Volunteer I am open and eager to work with people from all walks of life. I have worked with individuals, families and groups from a variety of backgrounds fostering personal growth and positive change.
