Holistic Healing Advocate/

Pastoral Counselor

Before pursuing a career in therapy, I spent some time as an entrepreneur, building successful businesses alongside my husband. This journey instilled in me a profound appreciation for resilience, creativity, and hard work.

Later, I embraced motherhood, homeschooling our four children and made the world into our classroom as we traveled to over 45 countries. These experiences broadened my perspective and deepened my empathy, shaping the compassionate approach I bring to my work with clients.

The roles of entrepreneur, wife (36 years married to the same man!), mother, and now therapist have provided me with a wealth of wisdom and life experience that enrich every counseling session.

When I am not working you will find me “Go Verbing” with my family, exploring new. Destinations, hiking, swimming, mountain biking and experimenting in the kitchen to create. Delicious culinary delights. This lifestyle of movement and engagement brought me health,healing, and clarity—and now it’s a vital part of the work I offer my clients.

My motto has always been: Move your body, change your state, transform your life.

That’s GoVerbing™.
