Everyone has a story. What’s yours? Are you a modern-day Cinderella juggling a family, friendships and career while waiting for your Prince Charming? Or are you more like Harry Potter - part of a family where you don’t quite fit in, but you know that you’re destined for more. Maybe your life feels more like the plot of the latest Terry McMillan novel, full of generational trauma and pain. Whatever your journey has been, I want to help you rewrite the way you see your past and work toward a happy, healthy future.

I can help you figure out the roles of the characters in your life, how the right setting can make a difference and how to move past the places where you feel stuck. Here's a hint. You already possess the inner wisdom you need. My goal is to help you access it.

I want your story to be a happy one where you eagerly anticipate turning every page by finding joy and contentment in your life every day. Call or e-mail me today for a free consultation and let’s do this amazing work together.
