Professional Qualifications
I have been counseling individuals and couples for approximately 10 years. My area of specialization as a counselor was focused on issues of intimacy. Over the last year I have broadened my practice to incorporate coaching which includes all aspects of one’s life.

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." The joy of living came flooding in to my being when I learned who I was, what I wanted not other people or their expectations of me. I truly learned that first we must love ourselves before we search for a partner. But I must confess that coaching comes as close to perfection for me as anything I’ve ever done before and that list can run pretty long. Helping others with their journey’s with finding the magnificence in their lives and loves excites and motivates me more than I could ever come close to expressing here. To know me is to know that I have ripened in to so many juicy rich colors over the years. Each tone and hue being a part of me that has learned, been aware, drunk in and strived to be more than the day before. I adore this process of living and life that we all share, that we all have in common.
Mark Twain
There was a time in my life when the relationship I had with myself was filled with anger and doubt. I disliked myself inside and out and wondered why I couldn’t find the perfect career the perfect man the perfect anything. When I finally became sick and tired of being sick and tired I began to look closer inside. The first thing I learned is that there is no perfect, not when it comes to being human or with relationships or with just about anything else you can name. What a relief to stop expecting perfection when it is absolutely unattainable.
