Empowerment through Your Struggle
Restore Your Heart
I created Chartreuse Center with you in mind. I'm here to tell you, there is hope and growth through your pain and struggle. It may be hard to believe at this point. You will find yourself again. You will merge your previous self with the knowledge you gain from these struggles and emerge with a greater appreciation for your life and those around you.
You are looking for something... something to help you feel like yourself again and as quickly as possible.
- A reduced a sense of isolation; feeling understood and accepted
- Understanding of your emotions, reactions to social situations, and how to cope
- Clarifying expectations of your friendship and family relationships
- Identifying the type of support you seek from relationships and how to obtain support
- Redefining a sense of "self" based on new stage of life
- A renewed self esteem and your confidence will return
- Improvement in communication and connection in your marriage and love relationships
I made a clear decision to specialize in order to provide YOU with expertise you deserve and exceptional care to help you move through your experience, understand your struggle, realign your core and restore your heart.

Embrace YOU! Online Courses are LIVE!
Embrace YOU! Online Courses launched on April 1. The first course is Survive Fertility, Reclaim Life and individual classes are available for those that are interested in specific topics rather than the entire program. The extended course includes bonus materials and resources. This is an important addition to the support available for those who live with fertility struggles and infertility. Building a family is a dream that begins early in life. This information moves beyond the medical model of care and provides self exploration and relationship insight to help cope with this difficult time in life. In the meantime, a free class is available: Basics of Surviving Fertility. This class offers information about the prevalence of fertility and infertility and begins to introduce grief concepts as it relates to family building challenges. Stay tuned for launch information regarding other topics including Fertility Transitioning from TTC (trying to conceive) to pregnancy, Surviving New Parenting, and Mending Me, Reconnect with Life after Loss. I look forward to providing useful information and support!
