I have been happily married for 29 years and have two sons, ages 28 and 24. I started down this path many years ago when we discovered that our oldest son has VCFS. Life was hard, but if I had known then what I do now, it would have made life easier. So, I have developed programs over the years to help as many people as possible. I use my designed programs and individualized plans to change the quality of life for my clients. Using my programs, I have helped educate and enhance the lives of parents, foster parents, teens, children, couples, business individuals, and single men/women on many issues, such as work-life balance, finances, coping with situations, disruptive behaviors, anger management, mental/sexual abuse, domestic violence, addiction, terminally ill, careers, depression, anxiety, bereavement, and many more.
I am a Life Coach who collaborates with people of all ages on all aspects of life. Everyone can live a life of purpose, reach goals, and be capable of doing what they are passionate about. Sometimes it takes someone else to believe, encourage and guide you to help you become the best version of yourself. Your goals in life are reachable, and my mission is to help you achieve them.
It is truly satisfying to witness how my coaching improves the quality of life of my clients. Positive change turns into growth. Each of us are inspiring people, overcoming obstacles in our path. Sometimes we may need help navigating through the challenges, which is why I am here, to guide you. I am passionate about helping clients reach their goals and teaching them how to achieve their passions while elevating positive change in all aspects of their lives.
I have a deep understanding of the behavior of individuals, the dynamic of teamwork, the importance of positive reinforcement, and client motivation for improved performance leading to self-satisfaction. Through the past 20+ years, my cumulative experience and education have helped me to build a unique knowledge of the behavioral and mental health of others. I apply that unique knowledge and achieve remarkable outcomes to help many individuals live a more positive, healthier life while learning appropriate coping skills. My enthusiastic, energetic, and self-motivated drive strives to achieve the best. I am organized and thorough in my work.
I possess good leadership skills and like to guide others to help them achieve knowledge and strength within themselves to cope with any situation they might encounter. I am knowledgeable in motivating clients with success, upholding the value of maintaining client morale, accomplishing tasks, and producing the best possible quality outcomes. My programs will let you utilize your capabilities to their fullest extent. My qualifications, along with my work background and experience, are of great benefit to my clients. I have rich experience in managing, training development, and execution, mental health services, cognitive behavioral therapy, family counseling, case management services, recreational activities, as well as vocational and educational services.
Since I have dealt with so many people professionally, I have the assets that will help the client efficiently perform all tasks required in day-to-day life. My extensive experiences have equipped me with the tools needed to be effective and efficient and genuinely improve the quality of life for each client. That is my passion in life to help make the life of others better.
