Meet the Team at LIFT Counseling

Creative expression saved me during childhood. As a teenager, my Rapidograph pen and spiral-bound sketchbooks were my safe zone. After effectively dropping out of high school simply because of a lack of parenting, I eventually earned a college degree while juggling motherhood and a job as a paraprofessional in a special needs classroom. It wasn’t easy and to be honest, I wasn’t sure of my direction. These years were long past when I learned about the ACE survey (Adverse Childhood Experiences), the impact of ACEs on one’s development, and resilience. It was then that I began to truly understand the life-giving power of knowing how to tap into one’s internal resources.As a clinician, my goal is to help others identify their inherent strengths and talents so that they can achieve their best lives. Helping others move their lives forward is the ultimate goal.
When I’m not in the office I enjoy numerous activities that invite creative expression, including quilting, gardening, phone photography and writing. I teach an undergraduate psychology internship course and once a year I interview a bestselling author in front of a live audience at a New Hampshire library.
