My counseling and psychotherapy practice has grown from the roots of a 34- year career in public education. My experiences include 24 years in the classroom as a Spanish teacher (K-12), and a decade working as a high school Counselor.  I have counseled diverse populations and cultures, and have extensive knowledge and practice in working with students who receive special education services. I have worked with families in crisis due to death, deployment and adverse circumstances.  In addition, I have personal insight into the unique demands of military families as the mother of both an active duty soldier and a combat veteran. I have a Masters Degree in Secondary Counseling from Creighton University and a Masters Degree in Curriculum and Instruction from the University of NE-Lincoln.  I also have a current Teaching Certificate for the state of Nebraska.  I work with young people, families, and those experiencing road blocks in living a more fulfilling and happy life. My goal is to help you uncover the source of your pain and unhappiness, and to discover new pathways and tools to leading a more harmonious, balanced, and joyful life!
