Following her United States Air Force Second Lieutenant husband to Colorado was a fortuitous turn of events. Having a family, homeschooling, and community volunteering became her first career. This period of her life informed her second career: Professional Counseling.
“I enjoy helping women realize their potential, and was able to write about how I had been coming alongside women in a voluntary capacity,” Valerie replies to the question of what inspires her practice of psychotherapy. “Women have a tendency to care for everyone but themselves. This is a powerful place in the world, but can lead to feeling depleted and empty.”
What Valerie offers her clients comes from what she has worked on for herself. Know that she has walked her walk and desires to share that with others who are on their path of finding their life’s purpose and strength.
Part of her personal evolution involves speaking in the community. Here are some of the places she has spoken and topics, too.
