I am absolutely certain that my mission is to make the world a better place by teaching clients how to recognize their power to achieve greatness and by inspiring them to live abundantly in their personal and professional lives. As a coach, I believe my work is to inspire clients to try things that have previously been daunting to them. While moving into new experiences, clients learn about themselves including how to easily achieve success personally and professionally. Over the years I have worked with many people who feel they live without love. I believe my work as a counselor is to guide clients towards strengths that are hidden under emotional pain and to teach them about the richness of unconditional love.

PERSONAL:

I am married with four children. I am an animal lover and have a dog, cats and a horse. I become excited over little things like beautiful clouds in a bright blue sky or the brilliant flower on a Rhododendron bush that showed up off season. I am touched by the joys and the sorrows of others. I enjoy hiking, cooking, gardening, music, art, time spent with friends and with family, and I love to laugh.
