My spiritual journey as a Catholic Christian has become an integral part of how I'm led to help others.
Enter a peaceful, safe environment where you can gain powerful insights. I'm here to help people look at themselves without judgement. This helps unnecessary stories to gently fall away, revealing their authentic selves, while learning to love and accept who they truly are. One of my specialties is helping to navigate through the struggles of feeling inadequate in life.

Everyday you get up, you get dressed, and you try to pretend like you are okay. You show up for your partner, your kids, and your job, but inside you are questioning everything you do. Constantly you compare yourself to others and you wish that you could just feel good enough. There are things you want to do, but you can’t seem to make a decision and move forward. So you stay stuck and feel like a failure that you can’t be the best version of yourself. Women are particularly good at pushing themselves to do more, be more, and give more. It is hard to take care of yourself and create space to unpack your thoughts and emotions.

Your road to being emotionally well is the number one priority for me from our very first conversation.

Clients that I work with feel safe, comfortable, and supported to explore their concerns. Together we will identify and work on goals targeting the change that you are seeking. I have helped countless individuals I work with regain focus on growth instead of feeling stuck. You will find balance so you can get back to a place of peace instead of being in pieces.

Are you someone who wants to live your happiest, healthiest life but anxiety, stress, relentless overthinking, and impossible standards of perfection steal your joy? Anxiety is torture and sometimes well intentioned family and friends don't fully understand and it's hard for them to help. That's when therapy becomes the resource you need to break free from the fear, worry, and self-doubt that holds you back from being the best version of you.

Despite having reached the pinnacle of my profession after nearly two decades of practice, it was my own struggle with learning disabilities, dual diagnosis and other medical conditions and issues, that changed my perspective and my life. I came to appreciate an approach which focuses on the here and now; solution focused and goal oriented. I found little solace in traditional therapeutic approaches which focused largely on the past, and went on for months with no real relief nor positive impact on my life or functioning. As such, I strive to help my clients achieve their goals and actualize their dreams using a coaching approach.

You know that feeling of disconnection between your head and your heart? When you're struggling and know that the feedback you're getting from trusted loved ones is logical, but for some reason it just isn't making you feel better? If you could just "think" or "do" your way out of pain, you probably wouldn't be here. Emotions always show up for good reason - even when they don't seem to fit. God created the spectrum of emotions to be felt, seen, heard, and understood. When we don't have a safe place to explore them, they get ignored, buried, stuck, and confusing, and they can no longer do their job. This creates disconnection.

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.
