Prior to becoming a life coach, I struggled with chronic health issues for roughly 14 years. Every doctor I saw added another diagnosis, and prescribed more supplements, treatments, and/or medications. By the end of 2014, I was couch-bound and thought my life was over, but I was not willing to give up. I am a Christian and my search for healing led me to many scriptures in the Bible indicating that healing is still for today. I started believing that I am healed, slowly stopped medications and supplements, and started living my life as normally as possible again. After roughly 2 years I was much better, but I was still struggling with chronic pain, fatigue, anxiety, and insomnia.

I believe that God wants us well and that He can use doctors and different healing modalities. My continued search for freedom from chronic issues led me to TMS. I found more healing through renewing my mind, applying mind-body principles, rewiring my brain, and my relationship with God. Having gotten rid of my own symptoms, I now have a desire to help women find freedom from chronic illness through a mind-body approach. 

I am a certified life coach through the Transformation Academy and I have successfully completed Dr. Howard Schubiner's "Freedom From Chronic Pain" practitioner training as well as Alan Gordon's Pain Reprocessing Therapy Training. I am also a certified life coach minister through the Christian Leaders Institute in Grand Rapids, MI. I feel confident that my education in mind-body syndrome, combined with my own healing journey, have prepared me to help others walk through that journey.

In my free time I enjoy living life to the fullest by spending time with my husband and our dog Walter Alan, exercising, traveling, volunteering at my church, and enjoying a cup of espresso at our favorite cafe.
