As your therapist, I offer honesty, openness, comfort, and a commitment to seeking God’s guidance and direction for our time together. In John 10:10b, Jesus says, “I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” As your counselor, I will listen for those parts of your story where you are not experiencing “life to the full” and explore possibilities for how your story could be expressed differently and with preferred meaning moving forward. Ultimately, my priority is to give my best to your process, and to trust that our mutual commitment toward your healing and wholeness will help draw you closer to the fullness of life that God intends for you.
As your therapist, I will provide you with a welcoming and safe space to explore the desired outcome of your life. With empathy and compassion, I will seek to see your experiences through your lens and work with you toward holistic healing – physical, emotional, mental, relational, and spiritual – with God’s help and direction. My desire is to walk alongside you on this journey and help you to realize the potential you have within to achieve greatness and restoration in your personal life and relationships.
If you feel overwhelmed, exhausted, anxious, depressed, isolated, hopeless, frustrated, or just stuck in life, you have taken the brave first step toward healing by seeking therapy. Life is full of trials, and I endeavor to walk beside my clients with empathy and grace to navigate these difficulties together. I offer professional, evidenced-based Christian counseling for adult individuals and couples. I utilize a compassionate and non-judgmental approach in therapy. No matter where you are in your walk with God, we can work at your own pace to explore your emotional distress and spiritual struggles.
As your counselor, I will share professional and personal therapeutic strategies that will help you live a more balanced, connected, and joy-filled life in Christ. I offer counseling for children, teens, adult individuals, and families. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, grief and loss, relationship issues, concerns related to aging, or other challenges, it would be my pleasure to support you as you walk the path toward growth and healing. With God’s help through Christian counseling, it is possible to experience restoration.
People are my calling. My job is to help people like you heal their lives, relationships, and families. With over two decades of experience helping tens of thousands of individuals, couples, and families, I offer empathy, a listening ear, and a healthy dose of wisdom. I am straightforward and often use humor in my practice. I believe it’s so important to be relaxed in this work. I work quickly and don’t waste time getting down to the business of healing people of all ages, backgrounds, genders, relationships, and cultures.
I desire to create an environment where you can feel safe, seen, and valued for who you are as an individual made in the image of God. I view our time together as a chance to learn, play, risk, heal, and come away impacted by one another. I employ humor and playfulness in sessions when it is appropriate, but also feel very comfortable with intense feelings of anger and grief. I am not overwhelmed easily by big feelings, so I will invite you to bring those in with you to our sessions instead of leaving them at the proverbial door.
As your counselor, my ultimate goal is for you to experience lasting positive change and the freedom and hope that come from Jesus Christ. With humility, empathy, and wisdom from the Lord, I will work with you to explore the root of your symptoms. Together we will learn and practice adaptive strategies to alleviate the suffering in your mind and body, and work to discover new narratives about yourself and your experiences. As we spend time delving into your story, my hope is that God will give you the grace to discover meaning and purpose in the midst of your pain as we look to Him for healing and restoration.
As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 18 years of private practice experience, I am passionate about helping my clients move beyond the pain into a more enjoyable life in Christ. Whether you’re dealing with individual struggles, relational problems, or family issues, we will work together in a supportive, collaborative environment to find the solutions that work best for you. Looking for a therapist may feel overwhelming, but you’ve already taken the first step on your path to healing. I look forward to continuing the journey with you and watching the Lord work in your life through our sessions together.
