The more we know about ourselves the better prepared we are to make good choices and meet life’s many challenges. If you are considering counseling, I am already impressed with your courage, curiosity, and commitment to yourself. These are precisely the qualities that will enable you to make excellent use of counseling. As you embrace this opportunity, what you learn from this experience will be yours for the rest of your life. No matter how many times I make this journey with clients, I continue to be amazed by the resilience that exists in each one of us, and I feel privileged to share this life affirming exploration.

My primary counseling style is solution focused. That does not mean that I ignore the challenges causing people to seek counseling. It does, however, mean that I believe focusing on the present and future to be more expedient and helpful. This is where our points of choice reside. The most difficult situations have solutions hidden within them. Counseling is work, but it is also an adventure.

My degrees are in nursing and counseling, and my clinical practice is informed by both areas of study. I have worked in rehabilitation, mental health, home care, executive coaching, and nursing education. Combining these two complementary professions has resulted in my having a keen interest in how our thoughts and emotions affect our physical condition and how all three influence who we are as a whole person. As the world around us is continually changing, so we are always in a state of becoming. I believe it is up to each one of us to discover our personal strength and move toward becoming the best that we can be. I am here to make this important journey with you.
