All the things are coming in this week apparently! It’s official! I’m now able to supervise LPC and ATR-P level clinicians! I’m so excited to support the next generation of therapists not only in having sound clinical judgment and skills but in how to create balance and financial wellbeing through entrepreneurship!

Over the past 15 years, I have gained specialty areas that include:

✨ Inpatient Adult Psychiatric Assessment and Group Therapy

✨Pediatric Medical Art Therapy Inpatient Individual, Group, In-Home, and Staff Support

✨ Almost a decade of Private Practice and entrepreneurship experience

✨ Specialty working with Teens (5 years) individual and groups

✨ EMDRIA Certified Therapist and soon to be Consultant in Training over 8 years of experience

✨ Level One IFS

✨ CAMS Su***de Prevention, Assessment, and Management

✨ MARI Assessment

I’m opening group and individual supervision starting mid April. I would be happy to support any organization as a cobyractor who may need a dually licensed supervisor to support the growth and development of your early professionals!

I hope to be adding CEU provider to this as well this year! Really love mentoring and supporting fellow clinicians !

Feel free to pass my information along!

I’m ready if you are!

If you’re done. Done with old patterns. Done with automatic reactions. Done with self-limiting beliefs. Done with trauma loops.

Just done.

Then reach out and let’s do this!

It’s time to create life on your terms. It’s your turn.

Your Midlife Transformation Partner,

Dear body,

I know we’ve been through a lot.
I know I’ve judged you, pushed you, ignored your wisdom.

But I’m listening now.

Thank you for holding me through every version of myself.

✍🏽 If you wrote a love letter to your body today, what would it say?

I'm so very proud to announce that I'm officially an EMDRIA Certified Therapist (soon to be a Consultant in Training)!!! Thank you to Amber Stiles-Bodnar Consulting for the years of training and consultation. I can't imagine a better trainer or continuing onward with anyone else! Thank you to my original partner in training and fellow, amazing therapist Kortanek of CoCreate Counseling! You have also been a huge support and learning partner along the way.

I'm so grateful for EMDR and the miracles I get to facilitate and witness with my brave, courageous, and amazing clients!

The Midlife Transition, from perimenopause to post menopause is an intense period of physical, emotional, and spiritual change.

During this time we lose patience for noise, clutter, and roles that no longer fit.

We begin to crave more truth, depth, and soul-aligned living.

It can be hard to remember that you are not falling apart, but that you are being reformed.

🌱What have you outgrown that you’re finally ready to leave behind?

Midlife often reshapes our relationships. Children grow, parents age, and our partnerships are tested. As we transition towards our post menopause years, we are invited to be honest about what we need and who we are becoming. This season isn’t about losing connection but finding a new depth.

✨ How have your relationships shifted in this stage of life?

I’ll be honest with you…

I’m a grown-ass therapist who is done playing small. I’m done with limits and old stories from the past. I’m done with therapy modalities that have clients talking in circles and never getting anywhere.

I’m not a quiet, passive therapist. I will ask hard questions. I will challenge your self-limiting beliefs and automatic, trauma-rooted reactions. There will be compassion, creativity, and plenty of room for raw, unbridled energy to begin flowing through your life again. But it will not come at the cost of just learning how to handle more stress.

It’s going to take you showing up to yourself, being consistent, and doing the work. It’s going to take some courage and a whole lot of kindness and patience towards yourself.

Yes, healing can be hard. But in midlife, we are being asked to consider the harder question.

What is the cost of waiting?

If you…

✨ are ready, even if that scares you

✨ know deep down you are meant for more, despite the current voices and narratives running through your head

✨ are done playing small, staying hidden, being quiet, remaining subservient, using self-lessness as a shield, feeling dry, and prioritizing safety

✨ no longer willing to just go through the motions of life?

In midlife, many women begin asking, “Is this work still aligned with my soul?”

Perimenopause and menopause stirs the truth beneath the surface of everyday life. What once may have been a whisper becomes impossible to ignore.

Some will change direction, some will evolve, but all of us are invited to live with greater authenticity.

💭 What whispers have you been hearing about your next chapter?

Permission to Pause

If your body is asking you to slow down, let that be reason enough.

In my own midlife transition, I’ve learned rest is a form of wisdom. We don’t need to earn our rest. We just need to listen.

Healing isn’t always loud—it can be a cup of tea, a deep breath in, or simply gentle “no.”

✨ What’s one way you can listen to your body this week?

Softening our Armor

Midlife softs us — not because we’re weaker, but because we’re wiser.

The armor that once protected us —people-pleasing, overworking, perfectionism—become too heavy to carry any longer.

Just for today, allow softness, slowness, and your true tender self to feel safe to re-emerge.

🕊 What armor are you ready to put down?

You’re Not Broken

Some days, our emotions feel like weather—sudden, strong, unpredictable.

If you’re feeling more tender, feeling raw, or remembering old wounds—please know this doesn’t mean you’re broken.

It means you’re clearing space.

🌸 Menopause is a reckoning and a rebirth.

What are you releasing to make space for something new?
