As a Caregiver for my husband for the past twenty years, I know how difficult and lonely your journey can be. Whether you are just beginning or are already traveling the road, you are at the right place.

A place where you are not alone. Where you can connect, find inspiration and hope, strategies to empower and support you, and understanding and recognition for what you do.

I began my helping career after graduating Ohio State University in Art Education, and later completed my Master's degree in Counseling from University of North Carolina at Charlotte. I first helped women move from welfare to self-sufficiency as part of the Family Support Act in 1990.

Later I assisted teens at risk for delinquency, coordinating with the justice and school systems, social services and community support services through the North Carolina Delinquency, Prevention Program.

I spent the last fifteen years my career employed as a counselor/advisor at Central Piedmont Community Colleges in Charlotte, North Carolina, and then Craven Community College, Havelock Campus in New Bern, North Carolina. My clients included young and older adults, military, and early college students as they navigated the world of college, career, and life changes.
