Let's Connect (443) 233-6756

Hello, it is wonderful to connect with you! I want you to know that whatever life challenge is in front of you now, I believe there is hope. My desire is to be able to listen and encourage you during this season of life. I want to foster a relationship of trust in order to promote a life change that you can feel passionate about. I am a graduate of the McDaniel College Masters Program in Counseling. I have 7 years of combined School Counseling and School Therapy experience and 10 years in the clinical counseling field. I currently work with clients 18 and up!

I take a holistic approach to counseling because I believe the heart, mind, body, and soul are connected. I have worked as strength coach for over 20 years and am able to guide clients on nutrition, exercise, & weight loss. I provide strength training and programming as part of a therapeutic intervention. I am Certified in EMDR therapy for Trauma work.

If desired, I am happy and open to counseling from a Biblical perspective integrating love/grace, and truth. I am a speaker, writer, and facilitator with New Life Ministries, a certified Amen Clinics Brain Health Coach & have am in the How We Love Network founded by Milan and Kay Yerkovich focusing on and utilizing Attachment Theory.
