I offer Christian counseling for those who would like to make their faith a part of their therapy.
If you feel weighed down with worry or overwhelmed by the stress in your life, it's time to pause and take care of you. I love to come along side women and moms who are struggling with anxiety, ADHD, parenting, relationships, boundaries, and self care. Together, we will explore the unique way your nervous system is wired, develop new skills to address unhelpful thoughts and uncomfortable emotions, uncover the ways in which your past is showing up in your present, and get you back on track to living a life focused on what really matters to you.

While it is not for everyone, I can specifically offer, through an eclectic and Biblical approach, Biblical Christian counseling.
Hi there! I’m so glad you have decided to take the step to seek out support! Therapy can be an essential part of a persons journey, especially gaining an understanding of who they are and taking steps towards their life goals. I would love to support you in that process! I consider it an honor and privilege to be trusted by you, to share your most vulnerable moments/feelings, and to process through the messiness of life. I believe in utilizing the therapeutic process to support you in taking power back in your life. I love pets on camera, relaxed sessions, using humor and honest feedback to build trust so I can push you when needed.

The challenges of life’s situations, the loss of a loved one, underlying trauma, mental illness, substance misuse, intimate partner violence can bring on feelings of loneliness, sadness, fear, anger, desperation, hopelessness, and grief to name a few. These emotions can at times leave us feeling “not like ourselves,” overwhelmed, and out of control, thereby, interfering with our daily lives and our ability to enjoy life to the fullest. Take a moment to imagine your life without these problems.

Accepting New Clients- I specialize in EMDR Therapy/PTSD. Disturbing events from the past can negatively impact the present sometimes manifested by intrusive thoughts, flashbacks, nightmares, feelings of anger/anxiety, and overall reduction in optimal functioning. EMDR helps to process these memories, decreasing and ultimately neutralizing the emotional charge. It eliminates constant unpleasant reminders and rids us of continued negative messages tied to the memories. It is not possible to change what happened, but EMDR helps change how you feel related to past experiences to move forward with peace. I can help you with this.

Despite being smart, hard-working, and loving supporters to their friends & family, many people struggle to care for themselves emotionally in daily life (especially when life gets hard). This may be due to burnout, depression, perfectionism, or loss. I help clients reflect on their life, past and present. We identify thought & behavior patterns that lead to feeling "stuck". Then, we rewrite an inner dialogue that is rooted in self-compassion, leading to healing, freedom, and more enjoyment of life.

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.
