Some of life’s hardest seasons can’t be understood from the outside — they have to be lived.

That’s the heart of why I do this work.

I’ve personally walked through healthcare crises, grief, divorce, addiction and recovery, aging, and major family transitions. I know what it feels like to be in the middle of something that seems too hard to bear — and I know what it looks like to come out the other side. That lived experience isn’t just part of my story; it’s the foundation of how I show up for every person I work with.
