I am in network with Blue Cross Blue Shield. Life is hard! Good people often find themselves struggling with emotional pain and difficult life issues. "crazy" people are not the ones who come to therapy, wise people who want to feel better come. You don't need to be shamed you need to be understood. My goal is to help you find healing. I am qualified to do this because of extensive training and duel license in both counseling and marriage and family therapy.
I have been married for 21 years, my husband and I have 5 children. I understand firsthand the difficulties about life, families, marriage and raising kids! I find joy and have success in helping children, adolescence and adults for many various issues. I humbly ask God for wisdom and guidance and pray for each client.
I have specialized training from Dr. Mark Yarhouse at the Institute for the Study of Sexual Identity. I have been through both his intermediate and advanced training on sexual orientation and gender identity issues. I provide assessments and therapy to people navigating these issues and to their loved ones.
