Embrace Life’s Challenges
Life throws many surprises at us, and while we cannot predict the outcome of any situation, we can take control of how we respond to certain situations. If you find yourself questioning your life's purpose, wondering why you may be presented with endless challenges and are ready to embrace life from your Soul's perspective, we can support you. Anxiety is caused by our body's natural fight or flight system, which in a stressful world seems to be overactive. We can help you learn techniques to help calm your nervous system so you feel safe is any environment.
While we understand that medication is not right for everyone, if medication is deemed necessary for you or your loved one, we will refer you to the area's best providers for evaluation.

MY COACHING STORY
Transforming life through self-empowerment
With a career in healthcare that spans over 25 years, a Master's degree in Human Services and licensing in multiple states in Mental Health Counseling, I implement education, years of training and life experiences into my coaching programs. As the mother of triplets, a divorcee after 15 years of marriage, a cancer survivor and a survivor of intimate partner abuse, my life has been anything but simple. However, using the tools that I now teach in my program, I learned how to transform my life, empower myself to achieve amazing things and live a life that is truly full of joy. My Women's Empowerment Coaching Program is a 12 week program designed to help women discover their true purpose. If you are a women who has asked herself "Who am I?",I can completely relate. Grief from loss, whether it be a death, a career, or becoming an empty nester has a way of making us question our life's purpose. This empowerment program can help you learn more about your conditioned beliefs, unlearn what is no longer serving your Soul's purpose and rewire your brain to see yourself in a whole new light. (This program is not covered by insurance plans and is a private coaching opportunity).
