Finding Hope in Every Situation ​ Broken, or injured? People tell me they are the former, their experiences reveal that they are the latter.

They see themselves as beyond hope, beyond repair, beyond redemption even. Working together, we discover they are otherwise. ​

Together, we find that hope aggregates. We grasp, weld, and grow each little particle together until hope feels real, substantial, and enduring. We see their ability to self-heal when they have the right resources. We realize that redemption is a consequence of healing rather than a reward for good behavior.

Mental healing and wellness are whole-being activities. I believe a person must learn to "be where they are at" to get where they want to go. This involves examining the meanings you make, forming new ways of understanding your challenges, learning to soothe your senses so they don't hijack your coping, and creating systems of support around you. ​

Also, some of you are seeking to thrive rather than heal. To me, they are two sides of the same coin. Using similar tools for healing in a different way, I can help you accomplish your professional, lifestyle, academic and other personal goals.

I work from your level of readiness for change. We are co-pilots, using our skills together. We engage the people and resources that are interesting and important to you to propel the work.

You are strong, intelligent, creative, capable and brave enough for healing, achieving, and thriving.
