About

As a board certified health and wellness coach and energy health practitioner with my Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology, I’ve lead individual and group coaching, and professional training for over 20 years. Nothing brings me more joy than helping folks grow and learn together, growing to fuel their personal cups so they can serve others. Be that in 1:1 sessions, group coaching or training, you are never alone.

To facilitate the connection within us all to the personal joy, freedom and  peace in any process of change and learning.  All we need to do is compassionately meet ourselves where we are, and take the next step.

Deep inner peace is a process.  There is no shortcut to the depth of your being that holds rich and powerful stores of resilience, love, joy, freedom and connection to your purpose.  If you are willing to work and play compassionately with yourself and meet the parts of you that need support, you no longer have to identify with old stories of pain or struggle. Inner Peace Rising  is my vehicle to share what I’ve learned through years of my own personal  transformation and my work with hundreds of clients.  Deep personal peace, abundant love for yourself and others, powerful forgiveness and grace, and outrageous joy and connection to your life’s purpose are possible!  Using wise modalities that harness universal and your own wisdom, we work through the blocks together to this experience.  You are meant for your Grace and Shine to show in this world, not to hide in old pain or stuck patterns.  Let’s discover that limitless joy and potential you’re truly meant for together!

Personal responsibility and accountability for transformation is key.  Shame and blame to yourself will not get you where you’re seeking, bearing witness and taking charge of your personal process with divine support is the way to go.

Investing in yourself through habit change, commitment and practice is rewarded, tenfold.

You are not ever in this alone.  Change happens in supportive community, with guidance and help, and through divine wisdom,  You are never alone, cannot say this enough.

Change is a winding road, healing is not linear.  You will have huge days of light bulb moments and joy and low days where you feel like you’re right back where you started. This is all part of transformation.

Triggers are opportunities to be welcomed.  The trigger that “takes you back” is a chance to move through a new layer of personal freedom, by bearing witness to the places that need attention.

Pacing of change is all up to you.  You determine the pace and process at which you face and honor your shadows and disenchanted parts of self, you have support as you integrate into wholeness and wellness.

Certain blocks need deep skilled support and help.  Tools and practices exist in my practice for years of training help to relieve and integrate troublesome old hang ups, and create new thought patterns to support your new evolution efficiently and safely.

Your circle matters.  Chose your supports, chose your mirrors that reflect love and compassion back to you in the transformation process.  You can find these in your life and here with Inner Peace Rising.

Sharing and Reflection – We post what’s going on in our lives and know we’ll be heard, seen and reminded of our innate goodness.

Grounded Optimism – We practice and choose love and joy authentically….for each other when someone is really struggling. We have fun!

Inclusion – We honor and respect each other because of our varied paths, identities and stories no matter what.

Peace Out – We have a 1 strike policy for anything not completely supportive; gossip, mean girl or bully posts, any exclusivity vs. inclusivity and judgement is the one way permanent ticket out of the group.

Compassionate Space – We lift each other up, we hold space rather than telling each other what to do. We share resources rather than prescriptions for action or diagnosis.

Keeping it Real – We bear witness to our own and each other’s vulnerability and greatness.

Higher Truth and Trust – We celebrate the Divine, however each defines this innate wisdom and energy. All traditions of Spiritual practice and honoring of intuition belong here. Chose your language and belief; God, Goddess, Energy, Higher Self, Consciousness, Presence…..you name it, your way of seeing higher and inner power is welcome.

Celebration – We share our wins, and when comparison creeps in, we remind ourselves that one members win is an example of what is possible. What we focus on expands!
