Twenty-five years of helping people reach their potential.

Being the youngest of two children — and a girl in a family with a mentally ill mother — I grew up attempting not only to understand for myself, but to help my family members understand how to cope and survive the missing component of a Mother in our lives.

When I graduated college with a double major in English and psychology, I wanted to continue my education. It turns out that “the education” was focused and concentrated in the school of life. At twenty-four I began to travel from coast to coast, meeting with groups of people, large and small, teaching techniques for interpreting dreams and exploring spirituality from a variety of perspectives.

Having been raised in the Bible Belt, I had a strong value system based on Christian principles. As I continued traveling and lecturing, I began to study esoteric psychology and Carl Jung's approach to dreams and their role in our lives.

After a tragic personal loss, I entered into a long-term therapeutic relationship which helped to transform my life and broaden my world view. As I began to deal with the childhood issues of not having a mother and the impact of her mental illness on my family, I began to heal in a deep and profound way. In retrospect, this was the most important part of my education in becoming a good psychotherapist — and something that sets me apart. I have done my internal work.
