ABOUT

So nice to meet you!

I am so excited to be living this dream of empowering you to THINK BIG even when hope seems small.  Hope comes in all shapes and sizes.  From my own humble journey, I know that sometimes we need a helper–someone who brings sparkle to our hopes and invites them to evolve into something bigger than even our creative minds can imagine.  These helpers may show up as friends or strangers.  Perhaps you are the helper, or one in search of a glimpse of light.  I’ve had the honor to be both at different times in my life.  The journey has not always been easy, but I wouldn’t move any stones along my path thus far, for those stones have been my greatest teachers.  Today, I offer myself to you as a helper, encourager, big thinker and your biggest fan!

Each day, I combine my life experiences and formal trainings to provide you with a unique blend of acceptance, knowledge and compassion which I believe to be vital to healing and leaping into the unknown spaces of living life abundantly.  I mindfully combine several passions and create an eclectic way to reach you wherever you are on the path of life.  

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and owner and creator of Polaris Mental Wellness.  I see clients both in person and via virtual platforms, offering counseling, coaching and courses specifically created to honor the journey within and inspire abundance. In 2012, I completed my Masters of Education in Counseling from the University of Missouri–St. Louis. Shortly before that, I completed a graduate certificate in Prenatal and Perinatal (Birth) Psychology.  I am a mom of 2 almost grown up boys. We have 2 dogs, fish, and a very big story that I am forever grateful to be living in, together.
