If you’re not ready for in-person yet or you’re out of this area, I can also do zoom sessions for individuals or groups. In-person sessions are available through the Fayetteville location of the Spring Lake Counseling Center, for all types of practices. If you are not ready to be in-person, live-stream Zoom private or group classes are available.

She is also a corporate contractor for companies looking to hold events on educating staff on mindfulness practices that increase wellness and provide a solid foundation for coping with current or future stressors that may arise.
