Welcome
Welcome to Family & Life Enrichment consultations. My goal is to be a place where you can confidentially and comfortably receive the help you need. I believe everyone can benefit from working with a trained professional to address the issues that may be holding you back from a full and complete life.
All are welcome to contact me for sessions in person in the greater Charlotte, NC area, or video sessions on computer/phone (in and outside the US). My hope is to bring good news to those suffering, mend the brokenhearted, comfort those who grieve and mourn, and give hope, encouragement for the heaviness and stress of life. (Isa. 61)
