In life we all encounter positive and negative events that can lead to emotional distress. These events have the ability to impair our daily and cognitive functioning. Therapy provides a platform to help you process your feelings and emotions related to the stressful event. If you are experiencing difficulties related to stress, loss, divorce, life transitions, relationships, parenting, medical, and mental health, therapy will help you find positive coping strategies to help you cope and improve your emotional wellness. My goal is to help you find fortitude during your difficult moments.

My ideal client is someone who is willing to call and take the first bold step towards change. Each persons life story is different. I strive to work with clients to establish goals and objectives to help facilitate change, have a healthier lifestyle, and/or deal with issues from the past that continue to cause problems in the present. Each season of life brings new opportunities and challenges. I believe everyone is a lifetime learner and, at times, needs help in working through the different challenges of life.

Is life feeling heavy? Are you in a dark place? Life events can have a major impact on us as humans. Depression, anxiety, trauma, substance abuse, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, identity struggles, and much more can be results of these events. Most importantly, we want to make sense of these things and why this is happening to us. What comes next is the need for a safe, warm, and nonjudgmental space to share these struggles with another human. This type of environment can help you discover many things about the dark that can bring light to your story. You just want to feel better.

Do you catch yourself overthinking or being too critical? Do you often wonder if you have accomplished “enough”? We keep trying to change how we think and feel about ourselves, but nothing seems to work for very long. However, this '“trying” can often lead to familiar reactions such as anxiety, depression, and relationship stress. So how does it get better?

Does it feel like you've just been struggling through life lately? Maybe you often feel overwhelmed, worn out, or like you're running on empty. Life is full of ups and downs and sometimes those low points just seem to go on and on. Whether this is a new feeling for you or it's an old, unwanted friend, you don't have to face it alone. If feelings of shame or worry about being a burden have kept you from seeking help in the past, know that you are God's creation and are deserving of receiving help.

Life is for living. Many times in life we let past experiences, people and situations keep us from moving forward. It's easy to get bogged down in every day life and forget to work on ourselves. Fears, depression and life circumstances can interfere with individual growth, accomplishing goals and thriving. We hope and wish that problems will resolve on their own. However, most road blocks start within - the messages we receive and what we tell ourselves. Only you can love yourself enough to try. It's not easy, at times, but it is so worth the effort.
