Hello!
I am excited about taking this journey to wellness with you! With over 24 years of experience in educational, clinical, and private practice settings, I am the founder and owner of Embrace Wellness & Counseling Services. Aside from my education and experience, I have learned lessons that are not taught in courses or training. These "life lessons" have enabled me to embrace my roles as a devoted wife, mother and therapist without neglecting the essence of who I am and who I strive to be. I recognize the challenges we all face while trying to manage our daily struggles. Sometimes, we get it right, but most of the time, we need a few "re-dos". I think recognizing that I am human and will sometimes "mess up" was the first step to reclaiming my purpose and discovering that joy is not optional.
