Rare is it to be born a human being, rarer still to have heard of Enlightenment, and even rarer still to pursue it. My clients are looking for more, and are committed to a process of transformation. They want proactive tools that melt everything in the way of their highest authentic self. They want to feel completely at home within their own bodies and to truly heal their relationships, especially the one with themselves.

For many of us, working on emotional and relational issues is something we tend to put off until life gets too painful to manage on our own. We struggle to get back to what life used to be, but we cannot seem to find our way. Marriages dissolve, relationships crumble, routine tasks seem overwhelming, and the life for which God made us appears to be permanently out of reach. Perhaps you are reading this now because you are looking for a change. Your new beginning is one step away, and I would be honored to take that journey with you.

Hello! I am a therapist that enjoys working with individuals (children, adolescents and adults) and couples. My clients often have a low view of self and have difficulty in relationships with others. We will work together to improve their feelings about who they are, letting go of shame, guilt and self-contempt. We will also work to improve their ability to relate to others in healthy ways by slowly shifting their attachment style toward security. Also, I often use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy to help clients heal from traumatic life experiences.

Trauma can make it feel like there’s a constant rain cloud following you around, impacting your relationships, sleep, work, and outlook on life. You might feel like you're on a never ending roller coaster and it can be scary to take that first step in meeting someone new to help you find sunnier days and a way off that never ending roller coaster - there is hope. I believe in teamwork and genuine human connection as an essential part of counseling. I hope you’ll take a moment to connect by giving me a call or sending me an email to see how we can work together to find sunnier days.

I specialize in treating clients with anxiety, depression, obsessive compulsive disorder self-esteem issues, dysfunctional relationship patterns, boundary issues, and a variety of other issues. I utilize Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) and Rational Emotoive Behavior Therapy (REBT). Both of these modalities are evidence based and have been shown to be extremely effective. I know what it’s like to not be living the life you want because of these types of issues, but there is a different way. We can get there together.

I offer Biblically-based Christian counseling services.
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.

After serving adolescents in a Christian non-profit ministry, I was inspired to earn my Masters degree in Counseling from SFA.
I'm filled with hope for my clients as they grapple with the pain, hurt, suffering, or fear they are experiencing as they await the time when all things will be made new. I believe all people are created in the imago Dei, image of God, and have incredible worth and value. My desire is to be a conduit in which healing would pass through my life experience and professional training in a way that benefits and brings hope, health, and restoration to those I counsel.

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.
