Are you struggling to find healing by your own means? That’s what makes therapy so valuable: the gift of community is a strong source of healing.

I often work from a CBT lens, an evidence based treatment, while integrating faith-based values work to create an atmosphere that produces growth mind, body, and soul.

There is a reason you are reading this right now. You want to reach out to somebody for help. Perhaps it's difficult to communicate what you are going through, and even more difficult to find relief or solutions to your problems.

You want to get unstuck, you want stress and pain to play a smaller role in your life, and you want to experience more fulfillment and joy. There is no shame in seeking out therapy, and I commend you on taking this first step. It takes wisdom and strength to recognize when you need help.
