He heals all who come to him. Mt 15:29-31

I'll help you unpack the burdens you are carrying.

I am a wife, a mother, and a grandmother. Throughout my life, I have cherished listening to people share their hopes and dreams, fears and wounds, regrets and triumphs.

Like many, I know the struggle of losing patience, of letting anger or a quick temper wound the very people I love most. These moments often leave us feeling ashamed, disconnected, and longing for peace and understanding.  Because your temper isn’t who you are.  It’s a signal that something deeper is craving care.

But we are not meant to live bound by regret, shame, or destructive patterns. Our Lord gave us the roadmap to true freedom and joy.

As St. Catherine of Siena reminds us:

“Become who you are and you will set the world on fire.”

Life brings many bumps in the road—broken trust, strained relationships, and frustrations that feel bigger than us. Yet, with the help of integrative sound psychology, the Catholic understanding of the human person, and Catholic spirituality, healing is possible. We can rediscover patience, tenderness, and the freedom to love more deeply.


It would be my joy to accompany you on your journey, helping to smooth the road ahead, overcome struggles with temper and disconnection, and grow into the fullness of who God created you to be.

Integrated Mentorship

We know how God made you, why you're stuck, and how to get you unstuck

The mentorship model I provide allows me to walk with you in full view of your whole humanity- your body, mind, and SPIRIT. We are trained by the CatholicPsych Model to understand you through the lens of Faith, Reason, and Science. This is the ONLY way to really know you, and how to help you.

A Daily Model

Accompaniment modeled after Christ should meet you in the context of your daily life, just like He does.

We help you understand and experience the work of God in your life. And even if you struggle with, or don't even believe in God, we can help you to experience how Goodness, Truth, and Beauty are pursuing you in the context of your lived life. You don't have to compartmentalize your "self-care" away from the rest of your life - I'll be with you every day, to walk with you as you are making your way through whatever real challenges are presented to you.

Mentorship offers a special space that is needed in today's world with a particular blend of guidance and support through the integration of Psychology and Spirituality.

What exactly is Mentorship?

Mentorship (technically called Integrated Daily Dialogic Mentorship, or IDDM) is neither traditional counseling nor spiritual direction, but occupies a unique space in between those two fields. Mentorship is daily accompaniment, looking at you and your story as an integrated whole, examined at your pace, with the goal of finding happiness and holiness in your life.
