I am a retired Mental Health Counselor and a mother of eight children. My curiosity as to why people do what they do, and why we are all so different from one another led me to the study of psychology. My studies have helped me to understand myself and others better. My goal is to share what I have learned, personally and academically, over a long lifetime in the hope that it will inspire others to make changes in their own lives. Our power for great relationships and true happiness lies within ourselves, not in others. Learning to love yourself is truly the greatest love of all.

My mission is to help individuals unlock their full potential and inspire transformative change. With a background in education, from a classroom teacher to a Vice President of Campus Operations, I’ve witnessed firsthand how the right guidance can lead to profound personal and professional growth. Growing up in a large family of eight children, I learned the importance of resilience, cooperation, and embracing challenges—values that have shaped my passion for personal development. My incredible husband and our three children are my constant sources of inspiration, fueling my dedication to helping others create meaningful change in their lives. Let’s embark on this journey of growth, empowerment, and fulfillment together.
