If you want to make God laugh, just tell Him your plans. 

The story of our lives always unfolds a little differently than we imagine it, so it’s important to take a look at what’s happening and make sure we’re living the life we want to live. I help my clients regain the momentum to get life back on a track of healing and hope again through guidance, encouragement and helpful tools. 

How do I help others discover or recapture joy and peace? My approach is kind, compassionate, and solution oriented. I help my clients focus their energy on taking practical steps for the present and creating a desirable future, not rehashing past mistakes. I feel I’m a coach of sorts, offering encouragement or a gentle nudge when needed to help my clients who are feeling stuck.

What else about me? I’m a lover of learning. I also am a love things that bring joy, like rehearsing gratitude, watching videos that inspire laughter, or simply watching wildlife in the backyard. As an avid athlete and fitness guy, my mini claim to fame is I completed the 86 mile Athens to Atlanta Road skate race. I get excited about sports, exercise and spending time with family. And most anything dark chocolate.
