I am excited to begin my journey with Country Crossroads Counseling!

I have been a certified school counselor for 33 years and a licensed professional counselor and registered play therapist for 15 years.

I believe that play is the way a child communicates their innermost thoughts and feelings. 

As a play therapist, it is my job to seek understanding and help children to develop healthy coping skills to manage a variety of challenges such as trauma, ADHD, low self-esteem, grief, anxiety, and relationship issues. I work closely with parents to offer ideas to support their child in counseling. At Country Crossroads, children get the added benefits of animals to help them become happy and healthy again.

In my spare time, I enjoy loving and caring for the many animals on the 40-acre farm I share with my husband, Mike. Animals have always been special to me. To combine my play therapy work with children and some furry friends is a dream I am so happy to share with you.
