Private Virtual Counseling for Women
My Approach…
This is not traditional talk therapy. I offer private, personalized counseling designed for meaningful and lasting change. My work blends evidence based practices from psychology and neuroscience with spiritual and intuitive approaches, creating depth, clarity, and forward movement.
Many clients arrive in what I call the unhappiness gap, feeling unfulfilled even when much of life appears to be working. Together, we create space to understand what is no longer aligned, identify patterns, and support meaningful change aligned with your values.
The result is sessions that leave you lighter, clearer, more hopeful, and deeply connected to yourself, with the tools and perspective to create lasting change with self assurance.
Spirituality in Counseling
Grounded in both science and spirit, this approach supports nervous system regulation, deeper self understanding and life purpose, and meaningful personal growth.
This work honors emotional, psychological, and spiritual dimensions, creating space for clarity, enhanced coping, and alignment with what matters most to you.
When aligned with your beliefs, counseling may include spiritually informed practices such as intuitive exploration, meditation, manifestation mindset work, or energy healing approaches, always integrated in a way that supports the therapeutic process.
Science meets soul. Therapy that transforms.

Midlife Recalibration Counseling
Midlife often brings what I call the “unhappiness gap.” You’ve built the career, perhaps the family, the life you thought you wanted, yet something feels off. You may long for freedom, meaning, joy, or a deeper sense of purpose. I help you find clarity, structure, and inspiration to imagine possibilities you may not have let yourself dream of before, creating a chapter that feels alive and aligned with who you are now.

Breakup and Divorce Recovery Counseling
Heartbreak can leave life feeling shattered, especially when it arrives uninvited and you want the pain to stop. Together, we make sense of what has unfolded, understand attachment patterns, and rebuild confidence so you can move forward with clarity, resilience, and hope. With over two decades of expertise, I bring evidence based methods and intuitive practices to support you through this season with greater ease and strength.

Dark Night of the Soul Counseling
There are seasons when life pulls you into the shadows, when meaning shifts, identities fall away, and the ground beneath you no longer feels steady. This dark night is not failure but a sacred passage of change that clears what no longer serves and opens the way to deeper truth. Together, we honor this as both breakdown and breakthrough, creating space to release, recalibrate, and move forward supported by thoughtful counseling that helps you make sense of what you are moving through.
Career & Purpose

Career Crossroads and Purpose
It is time to move beyond burnout and the Sunday Scaries and reclaim your sense of purpose and vision for how you want to live. You may feel trapped in golden handcuffs, dreaming of building something of your own but unsure where to begin. Together we explore ideas, clarify your direction, and shape an intentional path forward that feels aligned, fulfilling, and sustainable.

Entrepreneurship Recalibration
This work supports you in both business and life, recognizing that the two are deeply connected. I offer space to explore both — the demands of entrepreneurship and the natural rhythms of your personal world. Each session flows with what is most present for you, allowing space for strategy, reflection, deeper emotional work or work/life balance as needed.
Your Next Chapter Begins Here
I partner with a select number of women who are ready to move beyond what no longer fits and step into a more intentional way of living.
If this work resonates, I invite you to explore whether working together feels like the right next step.
