I came to the counseling profession later in life. For the last 14 years I have focused on the practice of providing individual counseling for a variety of clients throughout the life span.​​

​

I am trained in EMDR, the gold standard for trauma healing and I am IFS informed.  I bring a warm, inviting and calm presence to the therapy room.

​​

I am licensed by the state of Indiana to practice in-person and via tele-health within the state. I received my Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Grace College.  

​

When I am not at my practice, I enjoy painting with watercolors, yoga, crossword puzzles (really any kind of word puzzles), jigsaw puzzles, reading, and spending time with friends and family but my very favorite activity is spending time with my three grandsons!  I've always been told being a grandma is a joy that you've never experienced, and I have found that to be true!  Additionally I have been married for 40 years to a wonderful man, have a grown daughter and son whom I adore and admire as I watch them unfold their adult lives, and equally loved is a son-in-law and daughter-in-law who round out our family in the very best ways!
