I am excited to connect with people who find themselves ready for a change, but perhaps unsure of how to make that happen for themselves. I enjoy helping people explore all parts of their life to help make sense of present situations and to make a plan for a healthier future. This can look like discussing nutrition, exercise, emotional intelligence, past relationships and family dynamics, as well as a myriad of other topics. I prioritize a holistic approach for not only my clients, but for my own life as well and have personally experienced healthy change from this perspective.

When it comes to trauma, especially in children, there is no one-size-fits-all approach. Every story is layered, every need is unique, and every healing journey deserves to be met with intention. My work is grounded in the belief that safe, supportive spaces can transform lives. I’ve seen firsthand how trauma can shape families, & I’ve walked alongside those navigating its aftermath. From shelters to group homes, from outreach to advocacy, I’ve learned that healing begins when we listen deeply, respond thoughtfully, and honor each person’s lived experience. I strive to be that open door, for reflection, for connection, for change.

I believe that even though we are often hurt through relationships, we can also receive healing through relationships. I desire for people to experience the healing power of being vulnerable and real with God and one another (to know and be known). I seek to make my counseling room a safe and inviting place for clients to be able to work towards healing or to acquire the growth they desire in all areas of their life: mental, emotional, physical, relational, and spiritual.

I believe every day offers a new beginning. Whenever a client decides to seek support through life's challenges, it is the right time. Therefore, you are "right on time" for making the changes you need for a healthier, more productive life. Do you or a loved one need help to make a decision, move forward in life, or replace negative behaviors with positive ones? I meet clients where they are and work collaboratively with them to identify goals, determine solutions to problems, improve communication skills, enhance coping skills, and promote behavior changes that will lead to an optimally healthy life.

We are not here on this Earth to live life day to day, to go through the daily grind of life just getting by. Life is not about surviving, it is about thriving. Just surviving can leave us floating through life aimlessly, while life just blows past us. This can bring about depression, anxiety, addictions, and a missing sense of purpose in life. Finding who we are and our purpose can transform us into living a life with meaning. My goal is to create a space for you to develop awareness, find your purpose, and discover how you can live that out daily. I look forward to walking alongside you in this journey.

Life is a wonderful gift that can be filled with meaning, joy, and fulfillment. In addition, many of us experience seasons marked by anxiety, emptiness, sadness, and confusion. During these moments, the questions and challenges we face can feel too overwhelming to navigate on our own.

I want to partner with you on your journey. Let’s create a space where you can feel heard, understood, and equipped to move forward.

Being a parent is the hardest job on the planet. It can feel impossible to know what is truly going on in your child's mind and heart, and it can be even more daunting to figure out how to help them when you see that they need additional support. Pediatric clinical counseling can help identify what is happening, select realistic goals for care, provide treatment plans that will produce results, and educate parents on how to effectively support and influence their children. I specialize in treating a wide variety of needs, but traditionally I work most with children and teens experiencing stress from trauma, anxiety, and depression.

You are more than what you’ve been through, and therapy can be a space where your story begins to feel empowering instead of heavy. You may not know exactly what’s wrong, only that something feels off. Maybe you feel stuck, disconnected, easily overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or like you’re just trying to get through each day. If you’ve ever found yourself thinking “I should be fine, but I’m not,” you are not alone and you do not have to navigate that experience by yourself.

I believe that each person's spiritual, emotional, and physical qualities are connected in such a way that a problem in one area affects the others. My experience with couples and individual adults includes addressing issues of anxiety, addiction and codependency, grief and loss, healing from divorce, boundaries, stress management, relationships, and communication issues. I also have experience in helping with relationships dealing with sex or porn addiction - working with the wife or the husband, or both together.
