As counselor, I believe in taking a holistic, faith-based approach for a complete wholeness of mind, body, and soul. I approach the tension and struggles of life through an integrated approach, understanding that one’s mind, body, and spirit is impacted, but all are routes through which we can find wholeness and healing. I utilize a treatment approach using Narrative Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). As a counselor, I believe in the power of one’s story. It is through the narrative arc of our life that we establish meaning and beliefs about ourselves, others and the world.

Have you ever wished you had a relationship mentor? “Loving well is an art, Getting there is a science.” Backed by over 40 years of research is why I have been practicing Gottman Methods for 15 years thus far.

Do you often feel overwhelmed by your feelings? Have you felt discouraged by the impact that your past experiences have on your daily life? Do you struggle to function in your daily roles and relationships due to stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, or overstimulation? You are not alone.

We can work together to develop adaptive coping skills that allow you to be fully present in your life.

Porn or Sex Addiction? Betrayed Partner? Infidelity? Sexual Abuse? Trauma? Sexual behaviors become problematic when they violate vows and values, are dishonest, harmful to others, put you at risk, diminish your joy in life, act as a barrier filled with shame, self-contempt, and isolation. Sexual health creates intimacy and closeness, characterized by trust, respect, joy and safety. Sexual health can be achieved by porn and sex addicts in recovery. The trauma and addiction model identifies the abuse, trauma and internal system that underwrites addiction and does not view problematic behavior as personal or moral failure.

“Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen.” -Brene Brown. My first goal as a counselor is to connect with you so we can work collaboratively. I believe therapy’s greatest power is providing a space safe enough for you to embrace your full experience of being human. I obtained my Bachelor of Science in Psychology and Master of Science in Counseling from Missouri State University after years of service work with youth in foster care and individuals with developmental/intellectual disabilities. I also practiced as a Professional School Counselor before moving full-time into private practice.
