Get to Know Me

I am an adventurous and creative woman who's  passionate about living my life with intention, connection and adventure.​I didn't find this by chance - I worked hard to heal, clear limiting beliefs and create a life I enjoy that is aligned with my values.​

 

When I graduated from college, I allowed my insecurities and fear of money keep me from pursuing what I really wanted – to become a therapist. Twelve years later, after an unfulfilling career in marketing, marriage, children, divorce and the loss of a child, I decided enough was enough. I sought healing and decided to help walk with others as they found their hope.​

 

Not only have I been a psychotherapist for over 17 years, I am a certified Daring Way Facilitator, a Mastery Method Life Coach, and was an adjunct professor at Fresno State.​

 

On any given day, you will find me writing, meeting with clients, painting, cooking and making lots of room for my family and friends. I laugh a lot. I am sarcastic. I am direct. I am compassionate. I care deeply about the people I work with and I love helping people find hope, direction and meaning.​
