relationships / marriage / parenting
My husband, Neil, and I have been married 40 years, and one of our greatest joys is helping individuals, couples, and families grow in deeper connection with God, themselves, and one another. Neil brings extensive experience as a licensed marriage and family therapist, while I bring a background in spiritual formation and spiritual direction. Together, we integrate practical relationship skills with spiritual practices and inner healing to create experiences that foster lasting growth, healing, and hope.
In addition to our respective training and experience, we have both completed extensive training in HeartSync Inner Healing Prayer and Internal Family Systems (Parts Work), approaches that enrich our work with individuals and couples.
