Asking for help isn't always easy. If you’re stuck struggling to move past challenging emotions or life changes, or are having trouble in your relationships, counseling may be right for you. I am a licensed and board certified counselor who is experienced in working with children and adults in school, community, and hospital settings. I view counseling as a collaborative journey in which the counselor and client work together to build a relationship of trust and understanding so that we can effectively determine strengths, support systems, and areas for growth as well as establish goals and work towards mental health stabilization.

The teen years offer significant challenges for children and parents alike. Children are faced with increasing social and academic demands while facing tough choices and greater responsibilities. Raging hormones and strained relationships do not make it any easier! Parents often feel frustrated and exhausted trying to help their child reach his or her full potential. Many times, the parent/child relationship becomes marked by fighting and power struggles. Parents and teens facing difficulty may find teen counseling effective and helpful. Finding a teen therapist specifically trained and experienced working with adolescents frequently provides the greatest benefit.

I firmly believe change is made within. I am a tool to help you overcome whatever challenge(s) you are facing in your life. I also believe the client has to acquire the desire within themselves to make any real change. I truly believe that this journey between therapist and client is a process, your process. I have worked with families of troubled youths, along with juveniles within the judicial system that struggle with substances.

Note: Journey to Restoration is accepting new clients for individual & group therapy........Life has a way of throwing us unexpected curve balls, knocking us down, causing unfamiliar emotions, anxiety, intra-personal & interpersonal conflict, & stress.

I specialize in the assessment and treatment of learning difficulties, including those caused by AD/HD. My approach to academic difficulties goes beyond the limited information contained in a diagnosis. I identify the specific causes of learning problems that can be targeted with academic therapy or accommodations in the classroom. I provide detailed interventions and recommendations that target specific cognitive processes (e.g., working memory, processing speed, planning, organization, etc.), higher level language and comprehension skills, and basic academic skills required for efficient learning. I use the latest research on individual differences to tailor interventions.

Much of what I have learned about people, I learned from my dad who was a pastor for 55 years. I too have been in ministry for 30+ years. I see people every day people starving for fulfillment that is lasting and not just "feel good" emotions. Many people have had no foundation in life. They have been kicked from one place to another all of their lives. This causes deep wounds that need to be healed. I seek to "help" bring that healing. I consider my calling as a counselor one of great privilege, honor, and second only to my own family.
