About Me

Originally from France, I bring a diverse cultural perspective and personal experience adapting to a new environment as a teenager. I am a wife, sister and a parent. I have a passion for fostering dogs, and I enjoy spending time outdoors and in nature. I am deeply curious about learning, especially about the brain and its complexities, and I am passionate about helping others grow, build insight, and find their path.

Education & Experience

I began my career as a speech therapist before spending 17 years in education as a special and general education teacher, specializing in supporting neurodivergent populations and children with significant behavioral needs. I later served as an elementary school principal and Director of Student Services before becoming a mental health therapist. I hold a Master’s Degree in Education from University of Wisconsin–Oshkosh (2005) and a Master’s Degree in Counseling from Lakeland University (2024). I have experience working with diverse populations across the lifespan, from early childhood through adulthood.
