I do not define myself by how many roadblocks have appeared in my path;
I define myself by the Courage I've found to create new roads.
I do not define myself by how many disappointments I've faced;
I define myself by the Forgiveness & the Faith I have found to begin again.
I do not define myself by how long a relationship lasted;
I define myself by how much I have Loved, & been willing to Love again.
I do not define myself by how many times I have been knocked down;
I define myself by how many times I have struggled to my feet.
I am not my Pain.
I am not my Past.
I am that which has emerged from the Fire. ♥

That’s why I’m here. My tools range from innovative new mind-body modalities (e.g., Energy Psychology) to the most ancient spiritual/energetic modality (shamanic healing). These tools enable me to help clients address most of the problems that licensed mental health professionals do – plus some they can’t. And usually do it more efficiently.
This is the main reason I almost always have one or more licensed therapists as clients. See the testimonials on my website.

Serving as a catalyst for individual and family recovery and growth is my passion. I work with families because I believe that all individuals and families are inherently resilient and competent. Families most often come to me because they perceive one or more members of the family are in crisis. I contract on a 3 - 6 month basis to assure the time to mitigate the immediate crisis and help the family system gain confidence in its ability to navigate the future together. My work is grounded in evidence-based, best practices of Transitional Family Therapy (TFT) and ARISE Comprehensive Care with Intervention.
