A little more about me:
In my 14-year journey of marriage, raising four children, life has presented me with a myriad of experiences. Throughout the ups and downs, there has been one constant guiding force that has sustained me which I was able to recognize and use as my coping mechanism to overcome my biggest challenges: my faith and spirituality. I learned these beliefs from my parents; particularly my mother who instilled a strong sense of faith in a higher power that will always help me through challenging times. These beliefs have been my anchor, helping me navigate through challenges such as loss, sadness, depression, and moments of joy. Along this path, I've come to a profound realization: while we may not have control over what happens in our lives, we do have control over how we choose to react or respond to those events.
Recognizing this, I've learned the significance of equipping myself with tools and strategies to overcome obstacles. Life will always bring its share of unpredictable circumstances, but it is in our power to actively participate in shaping our own destiny. We can make a conscious choice to embrace life and its experiences rather than merely letting life dictate our course.
Through embracing faith and spirituality, I have discovered resilience in the face of adversity. It has taught me to seek strength, hope, and meaning even in the most challenging times. By cultivating a positive mindset and nurturing my spiritual well-being, I have found the ability to weather life's storms and embrace the moments of joy that come my way.
My approach is grounded in compassion, empathy, and a deep understanding of the human experience. I believe that everyone has the capacity for growth, healing, and transformation, and I'm dedicated to helping my clients unlock their full potential.
