I am trained in person-centered therapy, motivational interviewing, Christian counseling, multicultural counseling, trauma CBT, and psychodynamic therapy.
Life isn't always easy to deal with. The way we think, feel, and behave affects how we handle a certain situation. The relationships we have directly influences our lives. I want to help you through your life journey by helping you set clear boundaries with others, helping you overcome challenges, and by helping you find your inner strength. I can help you create appropriate coping skills and gain more awareness in your life. My goal is to empower you and watch you grow into your highest potential. Together, we can create goals and work hard to reach those goals. All you have to do is try.

I enjoy working with anyone and do not push spirituality, but if you are looking for christian counseling I have specific experience and education in blending counseling with faith.
Counseling seems like a strange thing. You are supposed to tell a stranger all the intimate details about yourself and focus on the worst parts of your life - and pay for it! It sounds horrible, but counseling can be a wonderful and transformational experience in someone's life. Having healthy conversation with someone who is nonjudgmental, empathetic, and trained to help can really help you take the steps you have always wanted. I would love to see if this strange thing can transform your life.

Do you often feel stressed, worried or sad? Are you feeling hurt, disappointed or lonely in your relationships? Experiencing these feelings can be overwhelming and you may feel “stuck” and unable to move forward. You long to feel better but you don’t know where to begin. There is hope for you and you are not alone.

Are you a parent who’s concerned about your child or a woman navigating a new season of life? Sometimes, these burdens can become too much to bear on your own. Your child may have started behaving differently, worrying excessively, or having difficulties at school. You love your child, and it’s so difficult to watch them struggle and not know how to help them! Perhaps you’re walking through a season of grief or loss due to death, divorce, or another big life change. You haven’t felt like “yourself” in a long time, and it’s starting to impact the way you work, feel about yourself, and connect to the people close to you.
