    _________________________

    I have a general focus on understanding and leveraging our own stress response system. I offer support for families working within school systems to access support for their children, compassionate strengths focused therapy for individuals who are caregiving others professionally or personally, or both!

    My speciality is with parents, loved ones, and educators who are seeking support for themselves so that they may be present with those they care for. As a former school counselor, I am also uniquely qualified to work with children (12+) and adolescents who are navigating growing up and learning about their own stress response system.

    When I am not working, I can be found enjoying the outdoors with my family and forever puppy, traveling, making good food, reading, and resting.

    _________________________

    All my life I have worked in service-oriented careers. I started as a respite worker, a volunteer coach and then began my career as a School Counselor and later became a certified yoga teacher. If there is one lesson that I have had the opportunity to learn again and again, it is that in order to care and make a positive impact on others, we must care and know ourselves.

    As humans we exist interdependently, and thus it is my belief that the health and wellness of one of us impacts the health and wellness of all of us. True impactful change occurs when we learn how to care for ourselves, each other and our community. My passion is supporting professionals with effective communication, conflict resolution and regulation skills so that they are then able to do their best work with those they serve.
