After co-hosting on the Giving Voice to Depression podcast, I found myself searching for a new way to build hope–not just for myself, but for others who need it, too. That search has led to an exciting new project: a space dedicated to building hope through guided meditations, affirmations, inspiring stories and poems, inspirational photography, and conversations with fabulous folks<\/span><\/p>\n

If this resonates with you, I’d love for you to be a part of it! Sign up for email updates, and you’ll be the first to know when The Building Hope Collective goes live.<\/span><\/p>\n

My primary aspiration in life (beyond survival!) has been to try to foster hope, create safe spaces for good work to occur, and improve well-being through co-creating unique and helpful life strategies with others. To that end, I became a licensed psychologist and coach, and have written extensively about mental and emotional wellness. Becoming the new co-host of the Giving Voice to Depression podcast fits perfectly with my intention of wanting others to know that they are not alone in their experience of struggling in the world. I believe there is so much that we can do to help each other get through\u2026 and then get to where we can thrive and enjoy life. I have worked successfully for over 25 years with clients with a broad range of mental, emotional, and physical health issues and also taught psychology classes at the University level. My own lived experience as a late-diagnosed autistic person with ME\/CFS gave me a unique set of challenges that have helped me to appreciate the struggles of others with increased humility, empathy, and compassion. Because of both my training and my life experience, I am very good at breaking down the overwhelming into manageable pieces and helping my clients learn how to trust their own experience to craft life strategies that work. It brings me the greatest joy to connect with others and be able to help in whatever way I am able.<\/span><\/p>\n
