I will not pretend to have the answers to your problems, but by taking a team approach we can get you to a place where you can achieve the results you are looking for. I love working with pre-teens, adolescents and young adults that suffer from low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, and just feel lost in the everyday mandate day to day of life. Women that feel that they have no voice in society. People who feel disconnected from their family of origin and would like to reconnect, parents that want a closer bond with their children.

I have been in private practice for over 30 years and believe that people can truly change their lives. People can take very difficult experiences in their lives and use them to develop a more meaningful life. I draw from my own experiences while I work with my clients and believe that change can happen at any age. People can use grief, loss, trauma and life's most difficult experiences to develop meaning that they may never have had. Finding your own spirituality and your own style of coping is what makes it unique.

At Stand Firm Health and Wellness we combine the Christian faith with the principles of psychology to improve mental health and quality of life.

I understand life may be challenging! Through personal life experiences and the Christian faith, I have realized that there is a wide-spread need to aid the hurting within our communities. While we can rejoice, we can also experience days of sorrow. Such days lend themselves to one experiencing anger, sadness, despair, anxiety, and pain.
