My own childhood was a difficult one filled with adversity, and for a while my past held me back from the life I desperately wanted. I wondered why do some of us overcome, while others are overcome? It was my desire to understand and harness this potential to heal and live well, that compelled me to begin seeing my own counselor and ultimately explore a career in counseling. I earned a Masters degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and Mental Health Counseling from Barry University while teaching fulltime and raising three children. When I am not in the office, I am often outdoors with our family dog, Ginny, spending time with family and friends, reading, exercising, and staying updated on the newest counseling training.
