Navigating life changes, relationships, self-esteem, and personal identity can be difficult while also trying to find your place in the world. Therapy can help explore all of these areas and bolster a sense of personal agency and self-empowerment. I specialize in working with children, teens and young adults. I believe that every person has the natural desire to grow, and that is what therapy with me is all about: personal growth. I hope to help you identify and work through the challenges you are facing, gain insight into barriers, and find solutions to improve your quality of health and relationships.

Over the past 8 years of providing mental health counseling to clients I have found incorporation of Christian principles into my counseling practice can provide clients with a sense of direction and hope. Drawing from the wisdom of Jesus Christ, we all can learn and grow as we work toward better version of ourselves. As a Christian counselor I will work with clients to help them draw closer to Jesus Christ and to learn how Jesus' teachings can help guide clients through their struggles and concerns. Always remember, Jesus is the way, the truth and the light and this can bring us hope.

I am grateful you are taking this first step in your healing journey. I get this shit isn't easy! Do you ever notice when one part of you feels 'off', all of you feels off? This why I take an approach that looks at the whole person and all parts of life. How would it feel to believe in yourself? Feel less drained? It IS possible (read that again), and I am here to support you through this (messy) healing journey!

Feeling overwhelmed, stressed, exhausted, and like you "can't even?" No matter what you might be experiencing, from relationship trouble, depression, anxiety, finding motivation, navigating new experiences, it's hard out there in the world and adulting is not all it's cracked up to be. These experiences begin to impact how you start to think and talk to yourself and suddenly, without any warning, you're drowning in this vicious cycle and just want to scream for help. Maybe you feel more alone than ever. You don't have to be.
