I am a Christian Counselor with a drive for couples.
It never ceases to amaze me how quickly this world can beat us down. It seems that we take just one step forward, and life knocks us two steps backward. Life is hard enough as an individual, but when you add a relationship it gets down right messy. People disagree, argue, and inevitably hurt each other. Unfortunately we were created to be social beings. We were made to be a part of something bigger than ourselves. The circumstances of our lives can lead us to feel insecure, or unimportant. It's the lies we choose to believe that inevitably grow the problems that we experience. You can choose to think differently. I can help.

I am a Christian counselor with 15 years experience in women's and student ministry.
Life is Complicated! Depression, anxiety, divorce and all sorts of traumatic experiences are issues that make life difficult, messy and at times unbearable. These issues cause havoc in daily functions that results in confusion, guilt, and shame. They rob you of the happiness, and the joy that you desire to live and the purpose filled life you were created to experience. I work with those who are experiencing issues related to depression, anxiety and stress, trauma related to childhood and adult sexual abuse, divorce, grief, anger and other issues that prohibit a fulfilling life.

I offer a holistic Christian worldview approach towards well-being.
Life is often hard, no matter who you are. The story of our lives are filled with moments and seasons of challenge, change, and confusion. Life is filled with many deeply transformative experiences, for both good and bad. Thus, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. Especially if we feel like there are few people who can offer meaningful help. Fortunately, life also offers significant positive growth and healing opportunities. These opportunities can create a pathway, orienting us toward the direction we want to go. That's when we begin to better position ourselves to experience the outcomes in life we hope to achieve.

This holistic approach incorporates the mental & physical well-being as well as the social & spiritual well-being of each person. My strengths are a passion to encourage & empower my clients as well as 50+ years of life experience. Since I began a counseling career later in life after working in business and in my most important career as wife and mother, I believe it is never too late to learn, to change, and to grow.

Life is difficult, but it does not have to be hopeless. Living in a world in the midst of broken relationships, feelings of depression, stressful jobs and family situations, alcohol, drugs, and loss. It can be easy to loose hope and your sense of purpose. I don't believe there is a certain type of counseling that works for everyone. I will meet with you, find out where you are, where you want to be, and tailor my counseling to meet your individual needs. During my years of counseling I have learned many different techniques and how to use them with different types of people.

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.
