Let’s connect.

The process begins with a conversation by phone to explore whether working together is a good fit for you. If we decide to move forward, we’ll schedule an Initial Consultation to clarify your goals for our work together.

If another provider’s expertise would be a better fit, I’ll do my best to help you find the resources you need.

We can meet in the privacy of my office or from the comfort of your home via Zoom.

My in-person sessions are located at my office in Bannockburn, IL.

Story Groups: An eight-week opportunity to engage stories of heartache and harm and imagine restoration in the caring presence of others.

EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques): A series of individual sessions using simple and effective strategies to address stress, anxiety, and overwhelm.

Forward Facing® Coaching: A series of individual coaching sessions to help you care for yourself while continuing to care for others.

If you’re wondering which approach would be best for you, let’s connect.

Story Groups are limited to six participants who meet in person or online for an hour and forty-five minutes each week over eight weeks. Together, we’ll compassionately engage one another’s stories with kindness and curiosity. During each meeting, two members will be invited to read their childhood stories aloud to the group.

Together, we’ll explore how stories from the past continue to shape our relationships in the present and imagine new possibilities for the future—with greater freedom to be the people we were created to be and to experience the relationships we were meant for.
