Empowerment for You

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 this situation 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.
