I’m a licensed mental health counselor with nearly 30 years of counseling experience. I earned a bachelor’s in sociology and a master’s in counseling and have been in private practice at Full Life Counseling and Coaching as a mental health therapist and coach since 2013, helping people improve their mental health and live their best lives. 

I have a passion for the empowerment of others and a desire to see all experience emotional freedom from our default thought processes that can cause us harm. I deeply desire to help people develop healthy views of themselves and their world. My love and compassion for others have been the driving force throughout my career that eventually led me to find the Emotionally Focused Therapy model, adopting it, and becoming extensively trained in it.

My desire is that people would join me on a journey of self-discovery and transformation that is designed to provide them with a new view of themselves and their relationships and leave them experiencing a paradigm shift in how they see their world, helping them live a more secure and connected life.

When not engaged in my counseling and coaching practice, I enjoy spending meaningful time with family and getting into the mountains to explore the outdoors.
