I am a Board Certified Christian Counselor who works with women to help them move from feeling overwhelmed and stuck in life to being able to thrive in their homes and relationships. I am trained in emotional abuse, trauma, the effects of narcissism in relationships, and grief. I specialize in helping women overcome the pain of domestic abuse, church hurt, and spiritual abuse. I also work with many women who are struggling with burnout and extreme stress, or who are struggling with perfectionism, overthinking, people pleasing, low self worth, feelings of shame, or trouble finding their purpose and calling in life.

I offer counseling from a Christian perspective while respecting the values and beliefs of every individual, couple, and family.

ALL of us have experienced past traumatic events (to a greater or lesser degree) that may be impacting how we think, feel and act, presently. I’ve learned from my clients and through my own personal experience that talk-therapy is just not enough! In obtaining needed certifications, I’m confident I’m utilizing the most effective, evidence-based therapeutic modalities to help clients, holistically, heal their brains, minds and bodies. By removing the roots of a client's anxiety/depression, I’ve seen tremendous breakthroughs with empowering clients to live the life they’ve always wanted; one filled with meaning, happiness and peace.

I am a therapist who has primarily worked with mothers who have a history of addiction. I am very passionate about working with individuals who are curious about their behavioral patterns, are driven to better themselves by asking those difficult questions, and ready to break generational cycles of trauma or addiction. I believe that addiction and mental health go hand in hand. Although individuals have sought services for substance use, there was work to be done with trauma, depression, anxiety, etc. I primarily work with teens and adults, and I especially enjoy serving the BIPOC, LGBTQ+, and international communities.

We transition from childhood into adulthood and sometimes these changes can be very overwhelming. You are not alone!

I believe the therapeutic relationship is an organic experience that cannot be created elsewhere. My experience has shown me that each of us walks our own path and that no two are the same. Having support while walking your path can be just the thing to make the difference. I strive to provide safety so that you can talk about your life, your family, your pain, and sit in the tension to ultimately begin living more authentically. I work from a holistic approach; given that, we will develop the best course of treatment for your needs, together.

ABA Therapy, or Applied Behavior Analysis Therapy, is the most recommended treatment for individuals on the autism spectrum and other developmental disorders. While most ABA therapy programs focus on servicing children from 2-7 years old, Autism and Behavioral Center onboards clients up to 16 years old because some individuals need continued support as they age. We have broken down our ABA therapy programs by age group. In addition to one-on-one ABA therapy, we also provide ABA Parent Training and customized groups for clients receiving ABA therapy.
