Kathy’s Mission Statement
Help people live more meaningful, fulfilling and happier lives. Promote health and healing.
People are helped to move past the management of symptoms into relief recovery. If people are experiencing depression, anxiety, anger, grief, marital or work issues there are reasons for this and I work with people in a collaborative way to understand why they are experiencing problems and how to resolve them.
