During difficult times, the word “unravel” resonates with most of us. As human beings, at some point, we are bound to experience life stressors, trauma events, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, parenting struggles etc. I am aware there is no single therapeutic approach, and a range of flexibility and modalities is key to guide and assist in finding resolution and balance. My goal is to bring healing to the people who have been through traumatic/stressful experiences and struggling to anchor, reflect and or reset. I believe in meeting clients where they are and in creating a collaborative therapeutic relationship. Spanish

As a Biblical Counselor, my goal is to help bridge the gap between the suffering of life's circumstances and the goodness, love, majesty, and sovereignty of God.

Life can be so overwhelming sometimes. What does it take to keep moving forward? I've been there before too. Counseling is my second career. After attending the University of Virginia for my undergrad, I moved to Madrid, Spain. I worked there for three years serving immigrants and refugees. I learned a lot through these cross-cultural experiences. I heard many stories and started adding formative chapters to my own story. These experiences led me to my own counseling. In processing my story, I discovered the power of counseling.
