edit data

I am a wife, mother and grandmother. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree with a major in psychology as well as teacher certification in Canada. I also have taken courses in human relationships and communication. Although, my primary focus has always been that of wife, mother and now grandmother, I have had a variety of jobs.

In my early thirties, after two severe bouts with depression, I first attempted to write a self-help book. I realize now, on looking back that I needed more experience in order to do so. My books are not fiction, but rather, they are books based on fact and my own personal healing journey.
