Clients seek counseling services for an array of reasons. Most often the issues revolve around how they feel about themselves, their relationships, and their futures. In many cases, people just need someone to help make sense of life. I believe all people want to be listened to and deeply understood. It can be difficult to trust when we have been wounded but with a supportive environment and loyal relationships, we can be renewed. We often need to begin to heal before we can thrive. Clients need insight but they also need practical tools. The goal is always progress but in areas that are most meaningful to them.

Currently not accepting new clients. I consider it a privilege to help people process their experiences, empathize with them in their pain, work to improve their relationships and help them make positive changes. I am a generalist in training (worked with couples, adolescents and adults), but specialized in Emotion Focused Couples therapy, EMDR (evidenced based trauma therapy), Christian psychology and cross cultural workers (missionaries, pastors, and missionary kids/adults). I personally love more depth oriented, emotion-focused work, but I will help you decide what approach works best for you!

We all need help sometimes. As a young child, I was often labeled a "helper". I knew as I grew older that I wanted to help others in some capacity. I am passionate about psychology and mental health, which led me to this profession. We do not get to choose the people who raise us, the environments we are born into, nor the trauma that we may face. We do get to choose a life that brings us joy, purpose, and fulfillment. Depression and anxiety join us on our journey at times, along with many other mental health struggles and addictions. You are not alone in your journey. Our trauma does not have to define us.
