I've been in the business for over 17 years and have a passion for providing competent counseling services within a Biblical framework. While I have a desire to integrate theories/strategies of psychology with Christian faith, I allow the client to determine what concentration of faith, if any, they prefer in the session. I would enjoy the chance to sit down and hear your story and offer feedback, wisdom & practical skills. I have a light-hearted & laid-back personality & enjoy supporting teenagers (11+), adults, families & couples through challenging times. Facing life's difficulties need not feel so burdensome or be braved alone.

Do you find yourself keeping busy so there's no time to think or feel? You might be feeling lost, anxious, and don't know why everything that used to work to feel better isn't now. Maybe it feels like your relationships are suffering even though you're really trying, or like you've never even had a healthy one. You might worry you're "too much" or feel like you can't do anything right. The one thing you’re sure of is you want to feel better, not like you're just surviving another day. You’re ready to feel confident in your relationships and leave behind old patterns holding you back. Most of all, you’re ready to feel good enough.

This includes people experiencing faith transitions or healing from religious/spiritual trauma or transitioning away from a high-control group, those transitioning to a new family structure, people entering a new season of life, those coping with a diagnosis or illness, and those navigating new relationships or exploring existing relationships in new ways.

Welcome to the start of a new beginning. As a therapist I believe that every day is a new opportunity for growth and taking back our power. Day to day stressors and life events can leave us feeling depressed, anxious, and powerless. As humans, we experience situations and emotions differently based on our past and current lives. I adapt my therapeutic approach and environment to meet each individual’s needs. I believe it is important to allow ourselves to experience all emotions and identify healthy ways to regulate them. As a clinician, I am inspired by an individual’s story and resilience.

**Not Accepting New Clients** My therapeutic style can best be described as warm, straight forward, and humorous. I have a strong belief that my clients are the experts of their own lives and experiences. I view that my job as a therapist is to assist my clients in finding their own meaning, purpose, and direction in life. To do this, I challenge my clients to live their lives authentically and according to their own moral compass. I have a non-judgmental, person-centered therapeutic approach. I work with my clients on taming that inner critic, which I like to refer to as their gremlin, and ever so politely showing it the door.

My first priority is to offer a professional, safe, and comfortable environment to explore whatever concerns you may be having and to develop a strong, trusting therapeutic relationship from which to provide therapy. As a former military psychologist (2001-2006), I had very broad and diverse exposure to many mental health conditions. I quickly learned to implement a variety of approaches to address the unique needs of my clients. My aim is to provide treatment tailored specifically to each client. No two people are exactly alike and their therapy shouldn't be either. Above all, I want to help you create lasting change and improvement.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
