There is wisdom in seeking biblical guidance in order to sort through and resolve life's challenges. At times, we place our trust in others to meet our needs or in our own ability to control our circumstances, only to find them insufficient. Yet meaningful change is a work of God through Christ as we submit our lives to him. God has provided believers a Helper, the Holy Spirit, who empowers, comforts, and guides us through each step of the way. Ultimately, God is interested in changing our hearts, for out of the heart flows all the issues of life.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a doctorate in Creativity and Spirituality. I'm passionate about being fully present with my clients while supporting their growth and transformation. I find there is inherent wisdom in body, mind, and spirit that, when supported, seeks opportunities to heal and balance. One of my specialties is LGBTQIA affirmative therapy. I also love working with artists and creators and weaving elements of creativity into the therapeutic experience. I'm comfortable with integrating spiritual issues, somatic therapies, medical concerns, and dealing with grief.

To say "things aren't always easy" is often an understatement. Sometimes things are more than hard, and may have been piling up for a while. Whether you're battling depression, anxiety, grief, or changes in life, I'm here to help. I've worked with children, teens and adults in an inpatient psychiatric hospital, where they work to sort out their struggles. I have seen the damage trauma can do to relationships, but have also seen the power in connecting with others.

I enjoy working with the full life span (my client's ages range from 2-years-old to 94-years-old) through a wide variety of concerns. I consider it a deep honor to be entrusted on your path to wellness and enjoy when you are able to pursue wholeness, even when you have no words. It is my honor to walk alongside my clients toward hope and healing from a variety of complex experiences, including attachment concerns, prolonged grieving, adoption issues, challenging parenting situations, vicarious trauma, and complex trauma & dissociation, including dissociative identity disorder.

I am deeply committed to establishing a strong and therapeutic connection with each of my clients, and this commitment is born from my experiences working with individuals facing various challenges. Whether it's during moments of crisis or periods of relative calm, having a dedicated advocate by your side is invaluable. I firmly believe that counseling offers a safe space for equipping individuals with the tools they need to engage with life in a more positive and constructive manner. Anyone seeking counseling can become better prepared to navigate life's complexities.

My goals in therapy center around two ideas: helping you feel better and helping you get better. Life gets complicated for all of us (either throughout our lives or during parts of our lives). Sometimes we just need someone else to help guide us through it and teach us a new way to approaching our difficulties. One part involves helping you gain confidence that you can have control of your life, & the other involves challenging your beliefs and world views that keep you from living life to the fullest. Helping you feel better involves compassionate listening and understanding your concerns through your worldview.

Do you feel like you are failing at life? I bet sometimes life feels so hard that you have to force yourself out of bed to face the day. Do you sometimes find yourself having no energy to accomplish the days tasks and other times you feel so stressed and anxious you can't calm down? Other people see you looking calm and collected on the outside, but on the inside your mind is racing and you are constantly on edge. You deserve to live a life free from emotional pain, feel more in control, and focus on what matters.

Welcome! I’m so happy that you have taken this step to create change in your life. Due to negative experiences, many times we learn unhelpful behaviors and beliefs over time. I believe that healing takes place when you have someone to walk alongside to create space where you can safely deal with what concerns you without shame and without judgement. My goal is to create that space and to be that person who will walk with you as you confront what is no longer serving you and develop lasting change.

Life can be difficult—full of struggles, challenges, changes, and the unexpected. We keep these events in our minds, whether at the front to consciously influence all of our decisions, or packed away in a box in a corner, to be dealt with ‘in the future’. When your box begins to overflow or you realize that it is time to open it, I’m here to help you unpack, sort, and re-pack the box. My goal is to help you regain control of the box, so that the box no longer controls you.
