Walking alongside - whatever you are going through. 

I was born in Chile, South America, to missionary parents who were caring and loving, modeling what it meant to rely on God. From an early age, I saw them demonstrate coming alongside others with advice, encouragement, and help. I lived in Chile until I was eleven before coming to Canada, where I finished high school and graduated from college with my ECE (Early Childhood Education). From a very young age and to this day, I love to be around children. I enjoy teaching preschoolers, school-aged, and teenagers about life - guiding them through all areas of development.

Drawing on almost four decades of experience, I offer counsel to all ages, teach parenting classes, and work with parents as they navigate challenges with their children. This includes speaking at workshops and other events as well as meeting with people one-on-one, guiding them through life issues - relationship challenges, divorce, illness, big decisions, and losses.

I rely on God, asking Him for wisdom and discernment in each situation while also drawing from my experience of walking hundreds of people through a myriad of issues - offering a listening ear, Biblical perspective, a lot of common sense, and comfort - all towards making a plan to move forward.

I live in the Vancouver, BC area of Canada with my husband, John. We have been married since 1985 and have two married daughters and five grandchildren.
