Throughout our lives we are confronted with disappointments, challenges, and obstacles that may derail us. Unexpected life events are common and although people have an amazing capacity to resolve problems, sometimes we get stuck. When we get stuck we need collaboration or assistance to find solutions, gain control, and develop coping skills in order to return to a place where we can flourish. With this in mind, I use the vehicles of ministry, coaching, and counseling to assist individuals in reaching the abundant life that is available through Christ.

In my personal and professional life, I have found one thing to be true: Life can be hard. I have a passion for supporting others in resolving pain and reclaiming fullness in life. While pain is an inevitable part of the human experience, suffering is optional. I am dedicated to helping individuals, couples, and families heal from relational and other traumas, problematic sexual behaviors, addictions, and intimacy disorders. I see men and women whose lives have spiraled out of control become desperate for help. I see brokenhearted adults and children as they learn to cope with an unstable world. My heart is to heal the broken hearted and give hope where hope was once lost.

My clients can expect to understand why they do what they do and develop strategies to manage life challenges.
As a temperament counselor, I give clients a questionnaire to complete in order to help them identify their soul needs. Once a client understands their temperament, we can develop a strategy to live a life that is more stable and fruitful. Teens who struggle to understand their identity, self worth and passions are also favorite clients. Premarital counseling is so vital to set a solid foundation before entering into the marriage union. Marriage counseling is important and necessary for strong families and communities which I spend a fair amount of time navigating these unions.

Life Coaching Therapists
What can I expect from life coaching?
Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.
Can a life coach help treat anxiety?
Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.
Can life coaching be done online?
Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.
How long does life coaching last?
Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
