Creating a Safe Space for Authentic Conversations

Listening with Heart, Connecting with Purpose

I bring decades of experience in compassionate listening and communication to provide a space where you can feel truly heard. My journey began as a teenager, recognizing the power of listening while working at a gas station and later as a bartender. Over the years, I’ve nurtured this gift, earning my B.A. in Communications, becoming a licensed minister, and leading workshops in anger management and spiritual growth.

Listening without judgment is the foundation of my work. I provide a safe, confidential space where you can express yourself freely and feel supported every step of the way. With my heart-centered approach, I’m here to listen, understand, and help you find clarity in your voice.

I first met Jolanne in 1986 after moving to Sacramento when I was 20, following a breakup with my first girlfriend. I didn’t know anyone, so I started going to bars and singing karaoke —that’s where I met Jolanne. Since then, she has been an incredible friend who has helped me in countless ways.

I didn’t know anyone, so I started going to bars and singing karaoke—that’s where I met Jolanne. Since then, she has been an incredible friend who has helped me in countless ways. Most importantly, she has always been there to listen. Without judgment and with compassion, she has consistently provided a safe space for me to share my struggles, whether it’s about my relationships with partners or my children, and she has always offered words of encouragement. Now, after 38 years of friendship, 4 failed relationships, the loss of a spouse to drugs and alcohol, raising 6 kids (several of whom suffer from mental illness), and my own health challenges, Jolanne continues to make herself available to listen. Her support has had an immeasurable positive impact on my life, and I highly recommend her.

Sometimes I’ve just needed to vent —to get something off my mind —without feeling like I’m burdening my significant other, family, or friends. It’s been hard to know where to turn. How do I work through an issue with a friend who is also a friend to my bestie ? Talking to The Listener —that’s how. Having someone who will simply listen to me, validate my feelings, and offer a different perspective (not always agreeing with me!) without judgment has been life-changing....
