Why I'm a coach:
Before counseling, I taught elementary education for 8 years. Seeing students struggle with divorce, anxiety, and depression ignited a fire in me to continue my education to become a counselor. I gained a lot from individual counseling as I faced trials in my own life along with my parents' divorce. It has inspired me to equip others with tools to manage life's challenges.
What I love most about coaching:
I love the "aha" moment when people realize that they are using more productive thought patterns in their daily lives- and they are seeing amazing benefits from their hard work. I also love how God wants to "wow" us even in the midst of our pain and suffering.
I recharge on my day off by:
I enjoy adventuring with my husband and kids. I love biking, hiking, jogging, and hanging at the beach.
My three favorite things:
God
family
living a life of whimsy
