Owner, Therapist, Author & Motivational Speaker

I am a proud transplant recipient and have lived with chronic illness. I know firsthand the struggles and losses endured and have a deep empathy for my clients and families. Coping with chronic illness, grief and loss can be some of life's longest, hardest roads to walk. It can be isolating, terrifying, depressing and anxiety-provoking. Those are chapters of our lives that we want to skip through, but at the end of the day, those are the chapters that shape us and strengthen us.

I have a Master of Social Work degree and a Graduate Certificate in Gerontology. I am passionate about helping older adults and those with disabilities. I am clinically licensed in the State of Missouri. Additionally, I am a proud member of Natural Lifemanship, Equine Assisted Growth and Learning Association, and Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship International.

I am pleased to offer Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy services through Second Wind Stables of Missouri, LLC using the Natural Lifemanship model of care. I am currently Natural Lifemanship Trained Level 1.

I have worked with clients and caregivers in a variety of settings helping support them through the toughest seasons of their lives. It would be honor to walk alongside you on your journey.
