I believe that we make the best decisions about our lives with the information and tools that we have in the moment or have survived with; you are the expert of the experiences in your own life.

Hi! I’m so glad you are here and taking steps towards putting yourself first. You may have found yourself in a challenging spot and are unsure of where to go or how to even imagine a world outside of your present moment.

Have you noticed a lack of connections in your life? Does a past trauma keep invading your present despite your best efforts? Have you experienced a loss that you still grieve?
