I feel honored to work with families and couples seeking to reduce conflict and increase relational intimacy through improved trust and communication as well as helping parents build positive parenting skills. I also assist individual adults and preteens/adolescents struggling with anxiety, depression, problematic behaviors, and negative relationship patterns and to aid them in finding life-affirming ways to cope with challenges. I am happy to offer therapy from a Christian framework, if desired. I believe that empathy and respect for others is profoundly important and feel blessed to walk alongside those seeking emotional healing.

While my Christian faith influences my view of pain and healing, I work with clients of all backgrounds and respect their individual beliefs.
Are you feeling stuck or anxious? Do you doubt your self-worth, even though other people say you are smart, creative and capable? You may have tried to figure out on your own what you are doing wrong, but this has left you feeling lonely, even in your closest relationships. Some issues are too difficult to confront alone - past trauma, broken connections, life transitions, and painful loss. Together, we will work through the things that are holding you back. No two people are alike, so I will collaborate with you to define your unique treatment goals. Let’s start improving your life and relationships today!

Feeling stuck? Looking for answers? Let’s talk. We might be a good fit. I offer practical insights and compassionate support to explore whatever might be preventing you from remaining present and fully engaged with your life. I trained in depth psychotherapy at Pacifica Graduate Institute, focusing on the unconscious dynamics occurring within ourselves and within our relationships. This training fostered a deep respect for the uniqueness of each person’s path which guides all of my work.

Do you want to reconnect with your partner or do you have issues with self esteem? I love working with couples or adult individuals. I offer traditional talk therapy or for those who are looking to overcome past painful events or trauma I use a technique called EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). Couples I typically see would like to regain their connection to their partner. For this, I use EFT (Emotionally Focused Therapy). Both techniques are highly researched and have shown evidence of client improvement. Please feel free to ask me more about my approaches to see if they would be a good fit for you!

Life can become overwhelming and you may feel like you are in a rut and it’s getting larger and turning into a deep hole. You may feel like you are stuck and unable to change no matter how hard you try. You may have unresolved issues from the past that are causing you to feel depressed. Or, your mind might be in overdrive, you can’t turn it off and you are feeling nervous about today and anxious about the future.

Christian Therapists
Why is it important for a therapist to be culturally sensitive?
Therapists and clients don’t need to share the same belief system or background to be able to work effectively together, but a therapist whose training includes a focus on cultural competence may be better able to form a therapeutic bond with individuals from a range of backgrounds, as they will have experience in tailoring their approach to each client—and will be prepared to acknowledge and consider the effects of culture, religion, and other factors on each individual.
Why is it important to find a therapist sensitive to Christian values?
Each person brings a unique history and background to therapy, making it important to find a licensed therapist who is trained in a broad range of treatment modalities. In addition, for people who grow up in a faith tradition that strongly influences the way they conduct their everyday life, finding a therapist who understands or shares that background can ease the disclosure of sensitive information and facilitate the therapeutic process. For some clients, a Christian therapist is likely to incorporate faith-based principles into emotional healing techniques.
How do I recognize an effective Christian therapist?
Christian therapists are licensed mental health professionals—holding a master’s or doctoral degree in medicine, nursing, psychology, counseling, social work, or marriage and family therapy—who are also familiar with Christian beliefs and values. They have an understanding of the importance that Christian principles play in the lives of individuals and families, which allows them to be especially sensitive to the kinds of struggles that can affect daily functioning. Like all effective therapists, a Christian therapist will have undergone training and certification in a variety of treatment modalities that help people through crises and enable them to master the challenges of life.
Why might someone feel comfortable with a Christian therapist?
While training, qualifications, and experience are always important, research has long established that a strong alliance between client and therapist is a major contributor to therapeutic success. An alliance is likely to be strengthened with a therapist who not only is responsive to questions and concerns but also shares a client’s faith and values. Sensitivity to spiritual matters as well as to everyday struggles can provide a welcome sense of safety and contribute to the bond between client and therapist, both of which support the therapeutic process.
Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Christian therapists?
The directory of Christian therapists includes professionals who have shared their background in their profiles. However, not all therapists choose to disclose this information, and they may not appear in search results for this reason. The directory also shows therapists who indicate that they have extensive experience working with Christian clients, regardless of their own background or religious affiliation.
