My Approach to Helping
My passion is helping people through life changes and transitions. Life is not always easy as we learn to navigate the ups and downs. My specialties include assisting people on their own personal road to success, which includes career transitions, leadership skills, personal growth and development, grief and loss, relationship conflict, health and wellness changes, life goals, addiction and recovery, and finding purpose and meaning on our individual life paths. I also work with a variety of business organizations helping to create therapeutic programming and professional development for clients, business leaders, and employees. These programs include creative programming in the areas of addictions and recovery, personal growth and development, leadership coaching, creative expression, and health and wellness. My self-help and personal growth books include 'Life Warrior: The Everyday Summit' series, 'A Mindful Kind of Happy,' and 'Somewhere in the Sky' (Personal Growth). I have also created and developed several self-help books and games for children and adults, including the award-winning Therapy Cubes game and Life Reflection Therapy Cards. Licenses and certifications include: Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), Substance Abuse Counselor (SAC), and Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC). Certifications include: Professional Life Coach, Wellness Coach, Art Therapist, Transformational Life Coach, Theta Healing, Spiritual Coach, Advanced Mindfulness Leader, Qigong Instructor, Laughter Yoga Therapy Leader, Eco-Therapist (nature-based therapist), and Community Drum Circle Facilitator.
