A piece of my story...

Life can through us many challenges.  At times we can feel overwhelmed, lost, or lacking direction and purpose.  My biggest challenge included  a divorce which led to a loss of support from family, friends and my church community.  It left me feeling inferior, abandoned, alone, shamed and fearful.  

Before my world turned upside, my heart and soul longed to find fulfillment, to know myself, to learn, and be of service.  When I was a beautician many of my clients would come to me with issues and I had an intuitive ability to help .hey would say, "you should be a counselor or psychologist".  I would respond, "I am not smart enough to go to college".   
When I worked in the hospital, I registered patients and often spoke with their significant others.  Again I experienced their desire to  share their stories and heartfelt emotions.  One day a Franciscan priest who was visiting patients gave me a Holy Spirit pin and said, "you are being called to heal".  I had no idea what he meant although I longed to connect deeply with God and to know my purpose.

I had no idea how or what until I went on the retreat.  I experienced a profound experience of forgiveness and love.  I knew I had to fulfill God's calling in my life.  Of course that did not sit well with my husband or family.  I tried to put the desire away but eventually I literally became paralyzed.  My counselor and spiritual director recognized that my light was going out of my soul and I was heading into deep depression.  I was at the crossroads of my life.  I had to choose life. 

I answered my calling. With a only a high school degree, a beautician’s license and no money from the divorce, I went from being an admitting officer in the hospital with a high school education to completing a BS in Psychology, BA in Religious Studies, MA in Pastoral Counseling.  All things are possible through God, especially when Spirit calls.

I returned to the same hospital where I worked as a Registrar to being a student in CPE for Chaplaincy and then an Assistant Director in Spiritual Care.   I continued my studies in healing the mind, body and spirit.

I love to learn and grow - to serve.  I became a Licensed Profession Counselor (LPC), Professional Board Certified Chaplin (BCC), Certified Daring Way Facilitator (CDFW), Certified Hypnotherapists (Ch,T.),  Conversational Intelligent Coach (CIQ), and studies in Bio-Energy Healing, crisis, trauma and grief.   Most of all, I continue the journey of healing my own mind, body and spirit.  I continue to answer my callings from Source to continue to fulfill my purpose.  

I draw from the latest evidence-based practices and research, cognitive and mindfulness-based tools, which (simply) looks at the connection between thoughts, emotions, and actions. I also incorporate faith, beliefs and values, spiritual practices along with Quantum and Traditional Science, and ancient wisdom woven with contemporary thought. 

To know more of who you are, I apply the Enneagram and MyersBriggs Type Indicator, Archetypes,  and Human Design™ assessments.  

I know the hero's journey, the pain, fear, loneliness, abandonment, confusion and more.  I walked through the thresholds of many life transitions -- transformed anew each time. 

Choose what is life giving and live it to the full in service of yourself and others.    Answer your calling.  The time is now.  Your Sacred Power awaits.
