History
Greetings! Even prior to becoming a Health Coach and Therapist, I have always helped others learn to thrive when faced with obstacles. As a child I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis, a chronic autoimmune disorder. Through facing this life-long challenge I have come to better know myself and I thrive on seeking knowledge to better help others. After over 30 years with Rheumatoid Arthritis, I educated myself and learned there are ways to reverse chronic disease. In a short period of time, I reversed my RA. I am disease free and loving my 40's without pain. I enjoy helping others do the same. RA has significantly influenced the person I have become and the choices I have made in my life. I feel it has led me to become more understanding of others' pain - physical, emotional, or otherwise. I feel I listen well, understand stressful situations, can empathize and offer sensitivity through emotional support.
