I am a masters level counselor who has worked with people with various physical and mental disabilities. I cared for my senior neighbors and father, who had dementia for 5+years til his passing at 94. I was very blessed to have and care for my 97-year-old mom til her passing in 2018 of a brain tumor. I have a special place in my heart for seniors. I believe they deserve respect, admiration, socialization and quality of life. My passion is helping others, especially our elderly population, who, I believe are under appreciated and too often forgotten. It brings me great personal satisfaction to bring joy and quality of life to our senior population. I have worked with seniors with dementia/alzheimers, mobility issues, memory care, congestive heart failure and diabetes. I can be very engaging or quiet and calm based on an individuals needs. Since both my parents have passed, my clients are very dear to me; I care for them like my own family. I am fully vaccinated and had my booster shot.
