I feel called to help people heal and grow. I especially enjoy supporting and strengthening Christian leaders. The sweet spot for me at work is when a person has an insight or takes a step that leads them to new, life-giving territory as a person and perhaps even as a leader. To aid in the above, I provide therapy, coaching, training and speaking that centers on helping people flourish and fulfill their callings.

I feel called to come alongside people grappling with issues relating to loss, self-esteem, depression, anxiety, cultural adjustment, marital and parenting issues, and spiritual growth. I specialize in working with women and adolescent girls, and draw on a variety of clinical approaches, integrating psychodynamic theory with client-centered therapy.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Illinois. I graduated from the Psy.D. program at Wheaton College in 2023, and earned my Master’s Degree in mental health counseling at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School (TEDS) in IL.

I am the organizer, and detail-oriented member of the Finish Well Group team.  I actually enjoy keeping things in order and finding new efficient ways to manage things behind the scenes. I focus mainly on the billing and insurance aspects of the group, but I am always willing to help in any way I can.

It is my passion to provide an authentic and open space for my clients to flourish. I am devoted to providing insight and reflection to the therapeutic space in order to build a more full and abundant life. I specifically find meaning working with young adults struggling with meaning and purpose, as well as couples and older adults seeking counseling. In addition, I have previous experience providing therapy in a school setting to children, adolescents, and college students on the Autism Spectrum. My current research work focuses on parental support and adolescent hope.

I love helping people and creating effective systems. I am glad to be on the front end of helping new clients get set up and connected with a therapist that can help them to heal and to grow, and help move them from overwhelmed to flourishing. To everything there is a season and I find myself in a new season! I am glad that this season enables me to fill the role of Director of Client Relations.

Serving alongside my husband in ministry for over 22 years, I have developed a real passion for serving women, especially women in ministry. I deeply believe in creating a safe and confidential space for people struggling with tough things that can come our way in life, such as loss, anxiety, or depression.

My love of coaching came as a natural out-growth of my work with teams and leaders. Serving as a CEO and senior executive in healthcare over the span of 40 years, I have always enjoyed supporting and developing the leaders I was privileged to work with.
