I was born and raised in Spokane and continue to love all Spokane has to offer! I am Mother to 3 grown children and grandmother to 6 - all adding to my joy, fun and adventure. I've been married to Scott for 5 decades - a partner along this life journey.

I am one of a huge clan who have provided a safety net of love for me as I've made my way through life's many ups and downs and amidst profound losses. I am a graduate of Gonzaga University--earning both a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a Master's in Counseling Psychology (1992).

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and have enjoyed private practice for over 30 years. I earned a certification as a Life Coach in 2015--studying at the prestigious Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching. (iPec)

I am "semi-retired” following Covid - and now desire to create a limited practice to address life's deepest issues - to stand with you on sacred ground and be a witness as you seek meaning and balance and experience growth in your life.

Choosing to engage in counseling and/or Life coaching is Bold and Brave!

Bravo and Welcome.

I see clients on Fridays in-office and will offer limited telehealth sessions.
