My ideal client is a high-performing woman or professional navigating anxiety, stress, trauma, or burnout despite her outward success.

She desires to break free from survival mode, rediscover her identity, and embrace the bold, courageous woman she was created to be.

Do you say "yes" out of habit or obligation, even when you want to decline? Do you prioritize the needs and feelings of others above your own, sometimes to your own detriment? Do you feel drained, resentful, or like you've lost touch with your own desires? If so, I can help you: Identify and understand the roots of your people-pleasing behaviours, develop healthy boundaries, increase self-awareness and self-compassion, build assertiveness skills, strengthen your sense of self and build greater authenticity, and improve your relationships.

Life is difficult. We all face challenges that leave us feeling sad, angry, overwhelmed and at times, stuck. Feelings change our behaviours and soon we find ourselves snapping, hating our jobs, drinking, and not eating or sleeping, among other symptoms. Suddenly we barely recognize ourselves. If you have ever told yourself that this is not the person you want to be, you are not alone. Seeking professional help is the first step in making positive change. If you are consumed by anger, hurt, worry, grief, suicidal thoughts, or using self-harm or poor coping to control pain, I can help.

Hope is looking forward with both confidence and unsuredness to something good. When we hope, we anticipate that what we want to happen can indeed happen. I want to walk in hope with you that the future can somehow be better, no matter what its present condition. I use an integrative approach rooted in narrative therapy, emotion focused family therapy, solution focused therapy and attachment theory to find new meaning and change for my clients.

I work with adults, adolescents, children, couples, and families from all walks of life.

Awareness of our unique patterns and ourselves is the first step to creating a meaningful life. Counselling provides a safe environment in which we can explore and work towards a healthier version of ourselves.

My desire is to see people find ways to manage and work with anxiety, depression, and ADHD and many other diagnosis’. I believe that within each of us is an understanding of who we are. What makes us scared, nervous, and uncertain, but more importantly, what makes us strong, and what gives us the desire to begin the process of change in our lives.

At the Christian Institute of Counselling, I integrate Christian spirituality grounded in biblical Truth with evidence-based psychological practice.
Seeking counselling can feel vulnerable and uncertain, yet it takes courage and humility to ask for help. The Bible teaches that God gives grace to the humble and that there is safety in the multitude of counsellors. Whether you are facing anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, or feeling lost or unsure of your path, you are not alone. We all experience seasons of struggle and wilderness, but you do not have to walk through them by yourself. I would be honoured to journey alongside you toward renewed hope, strength, healing, and peace.

Connection with others is vital, offering us a sense of safety, support, and belonging. Yet, there is so much in life that can block our ability to feel safe in relationships. Past traumas, emotional wounds, or unresolved issues may cause us to fear vulnerability or to build walls as a form of self-protection. Trust issues, negative experiences, or unhealthy patterns of relating can block the sense of safety that is needed for deep connection. Ultimately, people want to experience relationships where they are loved for who they are, where they can grow and evolve, and where connection offers a sense of wholeness.

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 recognise 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.
