About Me!

Have you struggled with limiting beliefs, broken family relationships, or challenges you can’t seem to overcome despite your best efforts? Maybe you’ve read book after book, sat through counseling sessions, and tried to push through, only to feel stuck in the same repeating patterns.

You’re not here by accident.

From the time I was a little girl teaching lessons to my stuffed animals, I knew I was created to help others learn, grow, and heal. That calling led me into the field of education, where I’ve spent more than 25 years working with students from preschool through high school. Along the way, I’ve witnessed both victories and heartbreaks — and I’ve learned that everyone, no matter their age, needs encouragement and tools to overcome life’s battles.

My professional journey has taken me through multiple degrees and certifications — a B.A. in English/Journalism and Elementary Education, an M.A. in The Art of Teaching, and an Ed.S. in Administration and Supervision. I also hold advanced training in Restorative Practices and in Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) with Marisa Peer. Yet, it was my personal challenges — the unexpected end of a 20-year marriage, seasons of deep grief, and walking through painful periods of family separation as a mother and grandmother — that pushed me to seek deeper answers and more effective tools for healing.

Today, Clear Hearts and Minds has grown beyond private sessions into a broader ministry and resource hub. Through my upcoming book, guided meditation series, small group sessions, and retreats, I help women, families, and teen girls find hope, healing, and restoration — emotionally, spiritually, and relationally.

As a wife, mother of two adult daughters, and step-mother to Keith’s children, I understand the complexity of family life and the generational patterns that can weigh us down. Keith and I also share a heart for service — with our family ties in the Marine Corps, law enforcement, education, and medical fields — and together we are passionate about encouraging others to rise above adversity and live with faith, strength, and peace.

Whether you’re seeking one-on-one hypnotherapy, faith-based encouragement, or the fellowship of a community walking a similar path, Clear Hearts and Minds offers tools and support to help you create a meaningful, fulfilling life.

When I’m not working with clients or creating new resources, I love writing, reading, and spending time outdoors — running, hiking, or biking alongside Keith. But my deepest joy comes from helping others heal, grow, and step into the lives they were created to live.
