"I specialize in helping individuals and married couples who are feeling really stuck in emotional and/or relational pain. Many of my clients are looking for a therapist who is a Christian and can provide Bible-based counseling while we're working together with God to heal their emotional pain. My approach is wholistic (physical, mental & emotional, spiritual, and relational aspects of a person's healing and growth). I am trained and experienced in EMDR therapy, and also provide traditional therapy options. EMDR therapy is often used to heal and recover from traumatic experiences, fears/phobias, and negative self-beliefs."

"I know you have been doing the best you can with what you have, and sometimes life hands us more than we can handle solo. It can be hard to reach out. Please do - you have the power to make things different, but it starts with DOING something different. I'm here to help and support you as you navigate the rough spots. Together we can work towards the life you seek. And if you are a parent, let's find your child's bright light and help him or her shine!"

"Seeing a counselor doesn't mean you are "crazy" or weak. We all have times in our lives when we feel stuck and need help in getting ourselves or our family out of the patterns that aren't working for us. I strive to provide a personal, comfortable experience for my clients where they can learn to utilize their own strengths to develop the life and relationships they want. I hope to help people gain a better understanding of how their thoughts and experiences are influencing their emotions and provide practical feedback to guide you towards the life you want."

"Are you ready to make some changes in your life? Well, you're at the right place at the right time. I don't believe this is a fluke. You are looking for a reason and I'm here to help. You may be wondering if you're an addict. Well, let's talk. You may need a Substance Abuse Disorder assessment or some education as required by the court or your work place. You may be a parent who is fearful about your child's choices. In any of these situations, think of me as a professional who has been in the field a while and knows how to help in a compassionate, non-judgmental way. It's easy, just call and schedule an appointment."

"Welcome! You wouldn't be here if you weren't ready to make a change in your life. Maybe you're feeling overwhelmed by all the hats you wear every day. Perhaps you're wondering where YOU are in all of this. Making time for reflection with a counselor is a great place to start rediscovering who you are and what makes your heart sing! Maybe some of your current difficulties are being fueled by the past. The stories we tell ourselves about negative life experiences can create problems in the present with our moods, emotions, and relationships."

"You are frustrated and exhausted dealing with the effects of addiction in your family. You may feel overwhelmed or anxious because you don’t know what to do or feel caught up in your loved ones life struggles. Maybe you are struggling to cope with life stressors and are worried you have turned to food, alcohol, drugs, or other compulsive behaviors as a way to escape. If you or a loved one are struggling to cope with an addiction or compulsive behavior I can help. I am devoted to helping families of those with addictions and those struggling with binge eating, excessive video gaming, and compulsive sexual behaviors. "

"I am currently accepting new clients and offering evening and weekend appointments. My goal as a therapist is to help you find your true self and your ideal path for your life. Oftentimes, our true selves and paths get buried under the hurt from the past, the auto-pilot of the present, and the fears of the future. Together, we will work to address that which holds you back and to rediscover that true self and path. I will support you as you explore negative thoughts, beliefs, and emotions, and together we will find and identify your inner strength so that you can feel more grounded and rooted in the person you want to become."

"One of the things life has taught me is to not believe everything you think because our mind can really play tricks on us. There is hope even when you think there is none. There are solutions even when you cannot see them, because you have more power than you know."
