Someone once asked me: "Why the name: 'Finding You' Counseling?"
I believe that so much of the mental and emotional pain we experience as women, is due to us being disconnected from our authentic selves. Personally, I grew up struggling with issues concerning my identity, my worth and my value. I fell into people pleasing and wearing a mask, so much so, that I lost me. I was lost, felt disempowered, and very unfulfilled with my life. It wasn't until taking a season of my life to become reacquainted with the woman I was, through the help of a therapist, a mentor, and a few trusted friends, that I was able to truly love, accept and embrace me, and get back in control of my mental and emotional life.
What makes the journey of reconnecting with our authentic selves so difficult often times, is the lack of a supportive environment in which you can heal successfully. And when you add into the mix, poor boundaries, insecurities, codependent relationships, unresolved trauma or stress of leadership, ministry or parenting--it is a recipe for a woman who is feeling stuck and who has lost her most precious commodity--herself.
Part of my work, helping hurting women and women in leadership, is helping you to identify, reclaim and re-empower, those lost parts of you. During our work together, we start where you are. I help you to identify the problem, which often times is buried beneath a lot of what I call "distractions". Together, we work to get you back to finding and being YOU.

"Healing may not be so much about getting better,
as about letting go of everything that isn't you -
all of the expectations, all of the beliefs -
and becoming who you are."
