Children are a treasure and deserve every opportunity to become all that they were created to be. Children crave being seen, known and loved. Yet we know that despite our best efforts, life often brings disruptions to their learning potential, emotional security, social development and familial bonds. Seeking support for your child is a powerful act of love - it brings hope. My Christian counseling practice is centered around fostering HOPE. Hope creates intentional space for purpose, potential, grit, resilience, flourishing and healing.

I have a passion for accompanying others as they experience various life stages. Walking with them as they navigate life's challenges to help instill positivity and strength. Encouraging the innate strength that comes from within every one of us. I am grateful to be able to join others where they are and support them on this journey we call life.

I became a therapist because, like you, I understand that life can be hard—and when it is, you want more than someone who just listens and nods. You want real help and a way forward. My clients often come in knowing they don’t have all the answers (because if they did, they wouldn’t be in therapy!). They also know that I don’t claim to have them all either.
Together, we start right where you are—even if you can’t fully put words to what feels off. From there, we work to identify what’s within your control and explore how small, internal changes in your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors can create meaningful external results.

No matter how old we are, the mental health struggles are very real. Choosing to seek and accept help can be daunting, frustrating, and even scary, but it can also be empowering, encouraging, and motivating. Growth and change are possible even in the midst of crushing situations and agonizing feelings. You will receive non-judgmental support as you reflect on your life, hurts, and ways you decide to embrace change. Attaining stability, clarity, and peace will help build the bridge for your long-term health in all ways – soul, mind, and body. I will walk with you as you achieve your desire for focus, strength, and healing.

If you are someone looking for a open-minded therapist with a great deal of life experience across multiple states and decades, then you are in the right place. As a therapist who has had two different careers in the past, I work to speak your language and not clinical-speak. For adults, I work with both men and women going through a variety of issues. I have a particular expertise working with men dealing with life transitions, relationship troubles, identity & masculinity, addictions, anger, and sexual troubles. I have great deal of empathy for women as well and enjoy helping women through difficulties in life.

As an OCD and Anxiety therapist using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), I help you understand your thoughts and behaviors so you can break free from fear, self-doubt, and patterns that no longer serve you. I believe healing happens through processing the past and shifting the narratives that contribute to distress, sadness, and anxiety. Feeling seen, heard, and empowered is often a key part of that process. My dream is for you to walk into my office and feel the warm and cozy vibe. I want my space to feel safe allowing for you to be vulnerable.

Life is difficult, no matter where you are in the journey. Loss-whether sudden or expected, can turn your world upside down. Grief affects us not just emotionally, but physically, spiritually and cognitively. The smallest tasks can be incredibly difficult. Loss changes people, and that loss, will always be a part of you. But there is hope. Hope that you will find joy again, and that your loss can be integrated into who you will become after the loss. If you are feeling lost and looking for hope, I would really like to help.

When I ask new clients to tell me something they like about themselves I often hear silence or the new client struggles to answer the question. When life feels overwhelming and burdensome it can become significantly difficult to identify our positive attributes. I promise you those positive qualities are there. Together we will identify your strengths and abilities to develop the coping skills necessary to overcome the challenges you are experiencing. I am dedicated in providing effective, confidential, and compassionate counseling care that meets the individual needs of my clients.

I am passionate about people from all walks of life. I enjoy working with a variety of individuals from those walking through hard seasons, struggling with big decisions, anxiety, depression, experiencing grief and loss to wanting to work through significant traumas and emotional healing.

Our lives can take many different paths, and finding the path that meets our needs and values can be hard to navigate. It can leave us in a place of feeling lost, overwhelmed, broken, and disconnected from our sense of self. This sense of hopelessness can prevent us from seeing the power within ourselves. I would be honored to meet you where you are at, and be your hope holder until you are able to see the hope that is in every situation.

I am a Clinical Psychologist specializing in individual and couples therapy, as well as helping people manage daily life stressors. Identifying your personal needs will be important as I believe a collaborative approach ensures best treatment outcomes.

Strengthening relationships and building support is a key component to much of my therapeutic work. In addition, I am an ally to the lgbtq+ community and infuse a multicultural approach to my therapeutic work.

I believe it is important to help each client feel comfortable, valued, and respected during the therapeutic process. My approach focuses on helping you achieve a healthy, satisfying lifestyle by encouraging long-lasting changes to target and diminish the symptoms that led you to seek services. I work effectively with adolescent and adult clients struggling with anxiety, depression, adjustment issues, and relationship problems. To ensure that every client feels confident in the counseling process I offer a free 15 minute consultation for new clients to answer any questions you may have about getting started.

I approach each client from a place of gratitude and awe. It takes enormous courage to ask for help. That is never lost on me. A key to therapy is building a therapeutic relationship between the therapist and the client. The client in the beginning, out of shear bravery, allows me into their journey. As they learn to trust me and open up, we begin to explore their unique nuances, their ups and downs, their pains, their hurts, as well as their successes along their journey. In this exploration together, healing and understanding begins to flourish.

At Integral Psychology, and within my own personal role as a Clinician, we strive to be as person-centered as possible. To be seen is to be changed, and I am grateful to play a small role in you or your child's life on their journey towards healing and health.
Specializing in working with children and teens to support emotional regulation, mental health stabilization, and healthy communication skills, I draw on both Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) approaches to help clients build effective communication skills and coping strategies to thrive despite life’s challenges and curve balls.

I enjoy working with clients that are ready to make a positive change in their life! Sometimes it's hard to get the motivation to make that change, so that is something we can work on together. I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, difficult life transitions, and family/relationship conflict.

I believe in a Client-centered, Cognitive-Behavioral approach with an emphasis on personal responsibility, accountability, and ownership of problem solving to bring about personal change. I specifically use the Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) model. The goal of ACT is acceptance of what is out of personal control, and a commitment to action for life improvement and enrichment. Additionally, mindfulness training including meditation, relaxation, and guided imagery can be used for therapeutic intervention.
