As a coach it is my belief that all of us are capable of being the best version of ourselves!

Since I was a small child I knew I wanted to help people.  After graduating from high school, I attended the University of Illinois and obtained a Bachelor's Degree in Social Work.  I loved the field so much I attended graduate school and obtained a Master's Degree in Social Work.

For twenty-two years I worked in the child abuse and neglect field.  Working with children was so gratifying to me.  They were maltreated and victimized and this was such important work.  I continued my interest in education thus receiving licensure as a clinical social worker.   In addition, I am board certified in clinical social work. I have experience as a life coach and enjoy helping individuals reach their goals.

My training in the field of social work gives me expertise in the areas of:

• human development - understanding the development and transitions throughout the life span.

• health and wellness issues - this is an area that a person has to work at.  After working with maltreated and victimized children and adults for 24 years I understand the effects on your health and wellness

• coping with stress and life issues - adults can have difficulties in their relationships.  You can increase your happiness in these areas!

My expertise in the above areas and my life experience is the value of hiring me as your coach!  I am passionate about making a difference in your life!
