“The Lord is near to the broken-hearted, and saves the crushed in spirit.” -Psalm 34:18

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

What burdens are you carrying?

Grief, regret, indecision, anger, loneliness, fear, shame—or even the quiet pain of feeling unlovable?

You were never meant to face these struggles alone.

Healing happens in relationship. As a certified CatholicPsych mentor, it is my honor to accompany you on your journey—upholding your God-given dignity and supporting your growth in body, mind, and spirit. Through compassionate presence, sound psychology, and faithful Catholic spirituality, I’m here to walk with you—because you are unique, precious, and unrepeatable.

“Your tears were collected by the angels and were placed in a golden chalice, and you will find them when you present yourself before God.” - St. Padre Pio of Pietrelcino

I’m a widowed mother of eight, now a wife and stepmother to four more. I’ve spent years as a teacher and homeschooling mom, walking closely with others through both joyful and deeply challenging seasons. These experiences shape the heart I bring to this work.

Together, we can unpack the burdens you're carrying and take meaningful steps toward healing, clarity, and peace. I would be honored to accompany you. You are not alone.

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.

What are your qualifications? 

As a certified CatholicPsych mentor, I offer individualized, faith-centered support for adults navigating life’s challenges.

Drawing from my experience as a mother of eight widowed after 21 years of marriage, a wife and stepmother of four more, and a teacher with years of homeschooling, I understand the complexities of life and the weight of mental and emotional struggles. This unique blend of lived experience and professional training shapes my approach to helping others.

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.
