Get To Know Me
What was your path to becoming a therapist? What inspired you to choose this profession?
I received a Bachelors Degree initially (BSW), Carroll University in Waukesha, Wisconsin, then an (MSW) - Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri, focusing on Substance Abuse Issues/Alcoholism/Marriage and Couples/Family Therapy - Specializing in Relationship Renewal, Rejuvenation, Reconciliation, and Repair.
Today is your time to release and let go of what no longer serves you!
Heal your mind, body, spirit & emotions from the inside out!
TO FACILITATE THE EVOLUTION OF HUMAN CONSCIOUSNESS,
MINDFUL AWARENESS,
AND
SPIRITUAL TRANSFORMATION:
ONE MIND....
ONE HEART....
ONE LIFE....
ONE SPIRIT....
AT A TIME.
“MY SOUL’S PURPOSE & LIFE’S MISSION IS TO TEACH PEOPLE, NEW, EXCITING, and INNOVATIVE WAYS TO INVOKE SPIRITUALITY, INTO THEIR LIVES, GUIDING THEM TOWARD, “GIVING GRACIOUSLY……..RECEIVING GRATEFULLY……..BELIEVING DEARLY…….. LOVING DEEPLY…….. & LIVING CONSCIOUSLY THROUGH PRACTICING MINDFUL AWARENESS.”
It is not about having to DO anything, it’s all a question of what or who you are BEING.
Striving toward your Highest Self & Authenticity, through living consciously, or in other words, LIVING LIFE ON PURPOSE, practicing love, kindness, humility, humbleness, mindfulness, living consciously, manifesting abundance, projecting positivity and adhering to GRATITUDE AND GRACE.
“My soul's purpose and life's mission is to teach people new, exciting and innovating ways to invoke spirituality into their lives, guiding them toward transforming their human experience, giving my clients permission to see a new world of enlightenment & awakening, beginning to tap into different levels of consciousness & alternative spiritual levels”. Her life's mission includes “helping people to realize their full potential, tap into their creativity & their Authentic Self, & to align with their passion & true spirit. Through the “Recovery of the Soul…. the “Inner Soul Healing”….the part of you that remembers exactly who you are….you will regain the ability to return to THAT which you were created to be in the first place”. “It’s Never Too Late To Be What You Were Meant To Become”.
I AM THE GLOBAL, INSPIRATIONAL INNOVATOR, VISIONARY & LEADER, PHILANTHROPIST, HUMANITARIAN, ALTRUIST, ALCHEMIST, & PIONEER WHO INSPIRES, EVOKES, & AWAKENS, THOSE INDIVIDUALS, COUPLES, & FAMILIES SUFFERING FROM MANY OF THE FOLLOWING LIFE CHALLENGES, STRUGGLES, & PAIN POINTS, SUCH AS ANXIETY, DEPRESSION,
LACK OF FULFILLMENT IN LIFE, RELATIONSHIP ISSUES/MARITAL ISSUES, LGBTQ ISSUES, & ADDICTION RELATED ISSUES.
MY LIFE'S MISSION, VISION, & PURPOSE IS TO HELP OTHERS FIND HEALTHY & WORKABLE SOLUTIONS, IN MAKING EFFECTIVE CHANGES IN THEIR LIVES. IN A CONCERTED EFFORT WITH MY CLIENTS, I HELP THEM TO DEVELOP CONSTRUCTIVE METHODS OF REMEMBERING, REALIZING, & REVEALING THEIR SOUL PURPOSE, UNCOVERING THEIR NATURAL BORN GIFTS & TALENTS.
LEARNING TO BEGIN TO STRIVE TOWARD THEIR HIGHEST SELF, & START LIVING A LIFE OF AUTHENTICITY & CONSCIOUS AWARENESS, BY PRACTICING LOVE, KINDNESS, & HUMILITY, WHILE ADHERING TO MINDFUL AWARENESS & LIVING IN THE PRESENT MOMENT,
THROUGH MY OWN PERSONAL LIFE EXPERIENCES, & PROFESSIONAL GROWTH & DEVELOPMENT.

Deciding to seek help and making a commitment to better yourself is a process.
THE PROCESS OF HEALING, WELLNESS, AND RECOVERY IS....
A JOURNEY, NOT
A DESTINATION.
🧡❤️💜💙💚💛
I take great pride in building a rapport and connection with my clients, and creating an environment that fosters trust, safety, validation, connection, and growth.
My therapy style is warm, compassionate, validating, reassuring, interactive, and focused on Solutions rather than Problems, Labels, or a specific Diagnostic Determination. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels.
Utilizing an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Approach (ACT) - A form of psychotherapy that focuses on helping individuals live fulfilling and meaningful lives while managing difficult thoughts, emotions, and experiences.
A key aspect of ACT is the use of defusion techniques.
My approach also combines a cognitive-behavioral approach, dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) approach, Mindfulness and Meditation, a Structural and Strategic therapeutic approach, a Solution-Focused Model of Treatment, with additional experiential therapies including Internal Family Systems, a Humanistic Approach, and Motivational Interviewing.
I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change.
