Welcome!
As a Michigan-native therapist, author, speaker, former educator and lover of animals and travel, I now live in North Carolina with my husband, Daniel.
We are owned by our kitty, Oliver Monkey.
He runs the household; we just pay the mortgage.

Virtual Counseling sessions
Are you ready to make healthy changes in your life, but you're not quite sure what that looks like and are looking for support and guidance? Are you wanting to heal from the loss of a loved one? Are you having questions about your career/current profession and need some guidance? Please reach out, particularly if you are an author/artist, counselor, or educator. I understand the "rhythms" and demands placed on each of these professions and can use my experience to provide support and guidance. North Carolina residents only. (Please see Counseling link above for more details.)
Virtual Pet Loss Counseling session
Our furry friends are important family members and it can be heart-breaking when we lose them. Please reach out if you need extra support. North Carolina residents only. (See Pet Loss/Counseling link above for more details)

It's been over a year since our beloved Rutherford B. Barrett, aka Bubby Bear has earned his angel wings. His sweet, quiet, and gentle nature will always be felt, particularly in specific areas of the house. His fight with Megacolon, and then another sudden & big medical issue became too much to bear. We wanted to relieve his suffering, even though it meant more suffering for us. Bubby, we hope you get many head and bellies scratches in Heaven; we know you loved nothing more. Rest gently, our sweet Bubby Bear. (3/20/09-5/2/21)
