Women's Coaching and Counseling

For Christian women that want to become the best version of themselves!

At 56 years old, I have walked through many different seasons of life — both beautiful and difficult — and through every season, God has continued to refine, strengthen, humble, and grow me.

I have experienced divorce, remarriage, raising three children into adulthood, becoming a grandmother to six precious grandchildren, health challenges, professional leadership, ministry life, small business ownership, and the beauty of a strong Christ-centered marriage with my husband, Dan. We recently celebrated 25 years of marriage, and I am deeply passionate about helping others build healthy, God-honoring marriages and families.


My life journey has included both deep joy and deep hardship. The first half of my life was lived without Christ, and the second half has been spent learning to walk closely with Him and trust His leadership, healing, wisdom, and truth. Through personal healing, marriage, parenting, loss, restoration, leadership, and spiritual growth, I have come to know that God truly is faithful.

Over the years, I have worked in the corporate world, served within church ministry, and operated in small business leadership. Those experiences, combined with decades of life experience, have given me a deep understanding of the pressures women often carry.


Often, the loudest pressure does not come from the outside world, but from the expectations we place on ourselves.


Over time, I have learned that true identity is not found in performance, appearance, accomplishments, productivity, or the approval of others. Our identity and value are found in God — in who He says we are — and in allowing Him to shape us into the healthiest, wisest, and most whole version of ourselves.


My heart is to provide women with a safe place to feel seen, heard, supported, challenged, encouraged, and pointed back to truth. I desire to come alongside you with compassion, wisdom, honesty, Biblical truth, practical tools, and accountability as you navigate your own season of life.


Whether you are struggling personally, spiritually, relationally, emotionally, or simply feel stuck and want to grow into the woman God created you to be, you do not have to walk through it alone.


Over the years, I have mentored and coached hundreds of women and couples, and I truly believe God has gifted me with a deep love for people and a passion for helping them experience healing, breakthrough, clarity, restoration, and transformation. There is nothing more rewarding than watching someone grow stronger, healthier, freer, and more grounded in Christ.


Our time together is practical, personal, and Christ-centered. We typically meet weekly or biweekly, either virtually or in person, and focus on key areas such as:


• Not only knowing your identity in Christ, but learning how to truly walk it out daily
• Understanding how past experiences can affect present-day thoughts, emotions, and relationships
• Walking through the process of forgiveness and learning how to live in freedom
• Learning who your true enemy is and how to stand against his schemes Biblically
• Understanding spiritual warfare and how to fight spiritual battles God’s way
• Learning to discern God’s voice, truth, and direction in your life
• Inviting God into past wounds and trauma so healing and freedom can take place
• Strengthening marriage and relationships
• Navigating parenting and family dynamics with wisdom and grace
• Growing in leadership, purpose, confidence, and God-given direction for your life


Together, we work to uncover unhealthy patterns, renew your mind with truth, strengthen your foundation, and create practical next steps forward.


It is important to note that I am not a licensed psychologist or clinical therapist. I am accredited through the National Association of Christian Ministers as a pastoral counselor and Christian life coach. Everything I teach is rooted in God’s Word, Biblical principles, prayer, practical wisdom, and life experience.


Over the years, I have found it fascinating that many modern discoveries in sociology and psychology are simply uncovering truths that theology and Scripture have pointed to all along. While practical tools and behavioral insights can certainly be helpful, I believe true healing, transformation, wisdom, identity, and peace are ultimately found through a relationship with Jesus Christ and putting God’s Word into practice.


My role is to walk alongside you with encouragement, accountability, Biblical guidance, and practical support as you pursue healing, growth, healthier relationships, and spiritual maturity.


If you still have questions and would like to learn more about me, my background and experiences, and to just get an overall better feel for what working together might look like, then simply schedule a Free Discovery Call with me at your earliest convenience and I will be glad to visit with  you.


Otherwise, if you're ready to get started with me, select one of these options; Women's One-One-One Coaching/Counseling, Marriage Coaching/Counseling, or Premarital Counseling.


Then go ahead and schedule your first session if you're ready and once I get the notification that you have made your purchase, I'll reach out through email with a few more instructions.


Thank you so much and I look forward to working with you.
