About
I’ve been co-counseling since 1992 and have facilitated workshops and classes here in the U.S., online, and internationally.
As a commended co-counseling teacher, I bring my clarity, heart, skills and passion for group process. As an Occupational Therapist, I bring a holistic approach to everything I do to help people live their best lives.
The awareness and insights I have gained from co-counseling have made all the difference for me in processing and moving forward from my childhood trauma. It has helped me shine a light in the dark places through awareness, skills building, and support from the international CCI community.

About
Co-Counseling has been part of my life since the mid 1980s. Transformational effects at my core level were so profound that I apprenticed to become a commended teacher in 1989.
