Ready to find breakthrough and healing?
Are you tired of being anxious all the time?Â
Exhausted from managing life with ADHD?
Realizing how the past is holding you back from living in the present?
Friend, I know. That was me more than a decade ago. But bit by bit, as I pursued healing wholeheartedly -- allowing my faith to lay the foundation for the clinical counseling support I received through therapy -- breakthrough became my reality.
I want that for you, too.Â
I come to you believing transformation is possible because I am living proof.
And even so, I'm on a journey of continued healing, learning, and growing. This holy pursuit has resulted in becoming a licensed associate professional counselor trained in equine-assisted therapy, EMDR therapy, and coaching.
If you're ready to take the brave step of going after your breakthrough and transformation, you've come to the right place.
It is my life's calling to help stop living in survival mode and discover how to stabilize so that you can thrive in the life you were made to live.
I'd love to connect with you by phone for a 15-minute consultation to help you determine your best next step!

For God alone, OÂ my soul, wait in silence,
    for my hope is from him.
He only is my rock and my salvation,
    my fortress; I shall not be shaken.
On God rests my salvation and my glory;
    my mighty rock, my refuge is God.
Trust in him at all times, O people;
    pour out your heart before him;
    God is a refuge for us.
Selah
Want to know the backstory?
They say that those in the mental health field often enter it because of what they've gone through. Yes, that describes me, emerging from a legacy of abuse and dysfunction to be an active participant in writing a new legacy for my life and my family. Through the support of great mentors, coaches, therapists, my husband, dear friends, my faith in God, and my time with horses, I've been able to experience breakthroughs in every season of my life. Yes, it takes a village! And yet, I do not come to you as a finished work!
There are so many areas of my life in which I am actively committing to grow through what I'm going through. We're all works in progress!
My entry into the helping field began first as a mentor to teenage girls, both as a youth leader and in my time living at the boarding school my husband worked at for 18 years. That role inspired the decision to become trained as a life coach through Life Breakthrough Academy, which was later followed by becoming a Highlands Ability Battery Consultant.
For more than a decade, I helped women experience transformation through providing biblically-based coaching, training, and curriculum, including numerous books, through my ministry, More to Be. In 2018, I embarked on a dream to integrate horses into my work and became certified with the Natural Lifemanship Institute. In turn, that inspired the decision to pursue a Master's in Clinical Counseling with a Trauma Concentration and simultaneously train in EMDR.
In 2024, with a degree in hand, I began the journey of pursuing professional licensure, while continuing to develop Stableminded into a multifaceted counseling, coaching, and consulting practice.
I consider it a privilege to be a trauma-informed counselor, coach, consultant, and educator, passionate about helping others determine their best next steps toward stabilizing and thriving personally and professionally.
When I'm not at the stables loving on Kodiak Jack, my 2010 Off-the-Track Thoroughbred I rescued in July of 2022, I can be found savoring time with my husband of 29 years, all-grown-up children, two son-in-laws, a beloved grandson, and being entertained by my "wild-child" of a Golden Retriever.
