I've walked through hell and back. Addiction, chaos, and darkness were my reality for years, and I've made mistakes that could have broken me - but I survived! I've cried at the gates of hell, and somehow, the universe reached down and pulled me out because it knew I was strong enough to turn around and reach back in to pull just one more out - hacksaw ridge status - one more person, one more life. Today, I guide people who feel lost, trapped, or hopeless to transform their pain into strength, reclaim their lives, and create hope for themselves and those around them. Together, we turn survival into purpose and lived experience into empowerment.

I was faced with making a decision about an unexpected pregnancy twice in my life. Once at 17 and again at 25. The circumstances were different each time. At 17, my parents chose for me and at 25, I had to go through my own process to choose what was best for me. Both times, the choice was to terminate the pregnancy. It was the right decision for me each time. Both experiences had significant influence on my life and choices moving forward. I had to go through different grieving and healing processes for each termination. One thing I would have benefited from is someone to talk to who had been there.

My first awakening came at 23, when everything in my life suddenly simplified into one undeniable truth: love is what matters most. Not success, not perfection, not external validation: just love. Many near-death experiencers describe this same realization, that love is the core of everything: and I felt that truth awaken in me so clearly that it changed how I saw life, people, and purpose. Years later, in my 40s, a second awakening arrived: quieter at first, then powerful and expansive. Through deep meditation and the Gateway Experience, my inner world opened. My intuition sharpened, my awareness deepened, and abilities I never expected: psychic sensitivity, mediumship, subtle perception began to unfold naturally. Whether you're feeling expanded, confused, curious, or in transition, I help you make sense of what’s unfolding, stay rooted, and integrate your insights with clarity and emotional safety.

Living with multiple invisible illnesses—like Crohn’s, Ehlers-Danlos, Lupus, POTS, MVP, MCAS & ADHD—can feel isolating & make socializing challenging- through many of life's stages. From the confusing teen years into the juggling game of marriage & parenthood, on into the sometimes lonely empty-nester years, I’ve navigated these experiences myself & can help you find purpose, connection & fulfillment- even in a disconnected world. In this session, we’ll explore ways to manage expectations & navigate daily challenges, embrace self-care & create meaningful routines that support your well-being & sense of belonging. We can also simply unpack & unload the burden you're carrying in this world that doesn't always seem built to embrace emotions that can often feel bigger than our capacity to carry them. More than anything I care that you feel heard when you speak with me, I aim to be a safe space, where you can discuss whatever you need to lighten your mental load & find peace.

Sometimes I just have a bad day. A day that I feel like I woke up on the wrong side of the bed, and nothing seems to go right. Some days it may just be little things that add up to make me feel stressed or a conflict with others. I've learned it's okay to have a bad day as long as I can learn from the bad day and reset to have a better day tomorrow.

Being a mother in recovery is one of the hardest battles I've faced. I've had my children taken, felt the despair that relapse can bring, and fought hard to get them back. I know how it feels when the system meant to protect kids ends up pushing families apart. But I also know how to stay strong, rebuild trust, and reclaim your role as a mother. Through my own journey I discovered ways to survive, heal, and protect your family while staying in recovery. I'm here to help other mothers find that same strength and Hope.

I’ve always believed there’s a reason for everything I’ve gone thru, & came to realize my gift is to offer healing or the start of the healing journey. I’m showing up as the conduit to others’ healing journey. Grief, loss, abandonment, self abandonment, infidelity, coparenting, single parenthood, rebuilding, eating disorders, body dysmorphia, self esteem, self worth…..been there, still going there time to time, & knowing that that’s ok. The human experience is similar & opposite at once. In between the similarities & differences is where healing occurs. Collective similar experiences along with personal individual experiences allot us to find community & a sense of belonging, where we start to heal.

I can be there for you if you’re battling racing thoughts, panic attacks, or the overwhelming weight of anxiety. I have skills in CBT, ACT, and DBT plus have the challenge of Dissociative Disorder and have both panic attacks and anxiety attacks. I'm here. You don't have to suffer in silence.

My story isn’t perfect — it’s real. I’ve stumbled through loss, career changes, heartbreak, anxiety, and depression, but I’ve also found strength in my faith and the community that held me up. I wear my scars and my colors proudly as a member of the rainbow gang 🏳️‍🌈. Now, I’m here to help others find their footing and rediscover their light. If you need a mentor who’s walked the hard roads and still believes in hope, let’s connect.

I cared for Dad for 7 years, first in my home, then in his, each posing unique challenges. He was deferential in mine, but very controlling in his. I was building a professional practice, he was dealing with consequences of bladder cancer surgery. We had complicated feelings about each other: he praised my dedication to him, and feared I'd harm him with his medications; I resented leaving my home, being the caregiving sibling. I acted horribly at times (I locked him out of my RV which he dearly wanted to work on) and he reciprocated (making my friends feel unwelcome in his home). He'd call me by my mother's name. (Parental conflict was the norm growing up.) I came to have great compassion for her. We had moments of great generosity and we even had fun together, too. It brought out the worst and the best in us. But it never occurred to us to seek help, a trusted outsider to help provide perspective and verbalize frustrations. If this sounds familiar, let's work on it together.

Disabled from birth I have struggled finding employment that is accessible to me as a blind person. Jobs that work with screen readers and locations easy to find transportation to have been challenges I've had. After several job opportunities I have found a job that I feel will be rewarding and enjoyable that I don't have to leave home for.

Divorce wasn’t the end of my story, but it was the moment I had to stop living on autopilot. I grieved the time I invested, the future I imagined, and the version of myself who tried to make everything work at her own expense. What followed was clarity and clarity created space. Space to reflect, to tell the truth, and to listen to what I needed instead of what I’d been trained to prioritize. I soon realized that not only was reinvention possible but a transition into my authentic self. Reinvention didn’t mean starting over from scratch. It meant reclaiming myself with honesty. Learning who I was outside of roles, expectations, and survival mode. Letting go of urgency and choosing alignment instead. This is the work I support others through now—holding space for reflection, grief, and rebuilding without pressure to rush or reinvent perfectly. Midlife isn’t a crisis. It’s an invitation to live the next chapter with intention

MOTIVATION IS HARD!!! I know sometimes getting started is the hardest part in getting anything done! At times it's so hard to get moving, even at a snail's pace, but once someone else is involved.... BAM, I'm moving at Mach 5 to get it done! Maybe you just want someone to talk to while you fold laundry. Maybe it would be helpful if someone is just sitting quietly while you do something really hard emotionally, like going through belongings of a loved one after they have passed. There are numerous situations where having someone to just BE with you can be helpful and I'd be more than honored to be that for you. We can talk about anything, or nothing, whatever you'd like and whatever might help you get through whatever task it is that you are having trouble starting. I get it. I have nearly earned a Master's Degree in procrastination! I'm learning little tricks to get myself moving, the top of which is the Body Double... someone to be with while I do the thing I don't want to do.

I survived human trafficking, a world built on fear, control, and hate. Escaping wasn't just leaving people behind - it was unlearning the lies about my worth and reclaiming my freedom. Healing meant shedding pain, prejudice, and survival mindsets to see the beauty and diversity and the power and love. I've claimed belonging to groups based purely off of hate for people they don't even know. I've learned the arrogance in hate but also the much needed presence of it in some circumstances which directly affect your well-being. Now, I try to help others do the same really trauma, move past hate, and rediscover the love and light inside them. Your past doesn't define your capacity for love - it can become the source of your strength, growth, and connection.

As a woman who grew up very religious , I’ve always held so much shame and guilt inside about who I am , or who I felt I should be or had to be. I want to connect with others and help them overcome that feeling the same way I did! Life is already hard enough and having so much pressure and stress inside really affects how you function day to day. I’m here to be a listening ear and as relatable as possible.

I’m an introvert who grew up in a family of introverts. I had no childhood friends because of homework and music lessons. A divorce and estrangement from family left me on my own entirely. My adult friendships were few, occasionally satisfying, but contact was sporadic. After retiring, I relocated to an area where I knew no one. Although now eager for connection, I had few social skills, and my initial efforts were fraught with unrealistic expectations in a closed community culture. It took a while, but I’ve turned the corner. A few deep friendships, a weekly Friday afternoon social group at my house, volunteer activities and counseling made the difference. It’s not an overnight solution, but I’m proof that a satisfactory, joyful recovery from isolation and loneliness by learning new skills is possible. It requires willingness to expand your comfort zone, persistence, resilience, a growth mind-set and good humor. Join me. Let’s start your journey to connection and healing.

I've always been the type that had to learn everything the hard way. I've always wanted to experience the extreme in life and because of that my life became extreme. Yes the things that I went through were horrible, but looking back now as a survivor, honestly- it's not a bad thing I went through them. I used to be so close-minded, aggressive, judgmental and quite frankly very dark. My life has never been boring and the energy I drew into my life was even darker. It's in the darkness though, that you find your light. I know that the universe heard me cry from the mouth of hell, reach down and pulled me out because It knew I'd be strong enough to turn around and reach my hand in to pull just one more out hacksaw Ridge status. I'm the only one in my family that never enlisted but fought a hard war here on our soil. I know what it's like to live without people you never wanted to live without, to lose hope and give up, to be invisible, homeless and pregnant and in addiction. We do recover.
