I'm a proud mom, a person in recovery, and someone who knows how hard it can be to rebuild when life knocks you down. I started using substances as a teen and spent years navigating addiction and mental health challenges like bipolar disorder, depression, and postpartum depression. It wasn’t until I hit rock bottom in my 40s that I found real help—and a peer who truly understood. Now, with four years of sobriety and a whole lot of hard-won perspective, I'm here to be that kind of support for someone else. I meet people where they are with empathy, patience, and zero judgment. If you're feeling stuck, scared, or just need someone who gets it, I'm here for you.
