Hello, and thank you for taking the time to explore how I may be able to assist you in healing and creating the life you dream of.  Please let me tell you about myself.  
  • Bachelor's degree in Psychology from Grand Valley State University in 1994 
  • Master's degree from Western Michigan University in 1998  
  • Employed in the human services industry since 1994.  
  • Outpatient therapist for Pine Rest Christian Mental Health Services from 1998- 2009 
  • 2009 began working  in private practice
 I have thoroughly enjoyed private practice and it has been an honor as a therapist to be a part of the healing and development of other's lives.  For this reason, I thought it might be best to explore other options, such as personal life coaching, in which I could benefit more lives with my professional knowledge and experience.  I am now a Certified Professional Coach, credentialed through Wainwright Global Inc.  

Please let's see how I can help you achieve the life you have always desired!

My Commitment

I strive to offer opportunities for you to live a more authentic and meaningful life.  I help provide hope, direction and change. I commit to journey with you in the most authentic and compassionate ways I know how.  Whether you are frozen from anxiety, burdened by depression, or bound by self-defeating behaviors, you can expect to receive:

Quality

​Quality services grounded both in time honored wisdom from the fields of psychology, philosophy, and theology as well as up to date research regarding human behavior and change.​

Zero-Judgment

I take to heart the shoes you have walked in and look at each individuals journey through their window, not mine, without judgment.​

Confidentiality

Privacy is a vital part of the therapeutic process.  In our exchanges, I will safeguard your personal information just as I do for my face-to-face clients.​

Compassion

​My approach is driven by compassion. I am committed to your personal growth and your goals.
