Is your child struggling emotionally—or are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety or past trauma? You don’t have to navigate it alone. I work with children, teens, and adults who are dealing with anxiety, trauma, and life stress, offering compassionate, faith-based counseling for those who want to incorporate their Christian beliefs into the healing process. Clients often share that they feel safe, understood, and supported in our work together. Therapy with me is collaborative, gentle, and focused on helping you (or your child) move toward healing, confidence, and emotional stability.
Using play therapy for children, EMDR for trauma, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to build practical coping skills, I help clients safely process their experiences, develop healthier thought patterns, and move forward with greater confidence and peace.
You don’t have to have it all figured out before reaching out. If you’re looking for a therapist who integrates faith, specializes in trauma, and works well with children, I would be honored to connect with you. Reach out today to see if we’re a good fit.
