my story
I've lived many lives within this one - as a daughter, an adoptee, a mother, a stepmother, a partner, and a guide. I know the ache of searching for where you belong. I know what it feels like to carry invisible wounds, to hold it together for everyone else, and to not know where to put your own hurt. I'm a mother of three small children and a stepmother to three more. I've navigated the layered dynamics of blended families, co-parenting, identity struggles, and emotional overwhelm. I've walked through the storms of relationships that didn't always feel safe, and I've found healing - slowly, honestly, and fully - over time. What I bring to each session isn't just what I've studied, it's what I've lived. I'm not here to "fix" you. I'm here to walk beside you, listen deeply, and help you untangle the things that feel too heavy to carry alone.
Work with me
I offer a space where your story can be heard without judgment. Whether you're grieving a lost relationship, navigating adoption wounds, struggling with family dynamics, or simply feeling lost in the chaos - you don't have to walk through it alone. This isn't clinical therapy - this is real, lived-in kind of support. It's steady conversation, deep listening, and mother-hearted reflection from someone who's walked through fire and found the roots beneath it.
