People do not seek counseling because everything in their life is going well. Sometimes we just need someone to come along side and help us "do" life. Sometimes we just need someone to help shoulder and carry the pain. I approach counseling from a Christian Worldview believing that deep down people want to be seen, understood, and accepted for who they are. I use a variety of evidence based practices such as EMDR and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help you on your journey.

Growing up in a dysfunctional family, being in a toxic or abusive relationship, or experiencing the horrors of a traumatic event can set you on a collision course with daily triggers to anger, sadness, overwhelm, panic, or dissociation. Maybe you notice your reactions in your relationships are causing harm, and you regularly experience the dreaded “shame spiral.” You minimize your pain, or others regularly do. If this is you, I’m glad you’re here. Long-term healing is possible. Even if only a small part of you hopes for change, I'm confident it's enough to start the journey toward a peaceful and thriving life.
