Experience

I am an experienced Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have a curiosity about people~ How we live. How we celebrate. How we work through life struggles. How we feel our passions. How we share the earth and its resources. How we have conflict. And how we love ourselves and each other.

I have years of professional and personal experience helping those suffering with trauma, relationship issues, addiction, and codependency. I have been married for 29 years and have three adult children. I feel a calling to help couples and individuals learn a new attunement to themselves and to one another.
