I believe that people seek out counseling because they feel that they are lacking guidance and are struggling to make sense of the problem(s) or issue(s) they are experiencing. In other words, they feel “stuck”. Because of this, they are searching for a way to change, move forward, or process their own thoughts and feelings related to whatever is causing their problem. Each person has the option to take charge of their own narrative and change their current problems or circumstances or create a new life all together. Through the counseling process, I am able to help my clients accomplish that and move forward.

I am currently taking new clients and offer a free brief phone consultation. My goal is to provide professional therapeutic services where clients feel confident and comfortable knowing they’ve chosen the right clinician to help empower them to resolve their issue.

I particularly enjoy working with issues such as failure to launch, teens, attachment, grief, marital struggles, and substance abuse.
Watch my video on my website....My goal in counseling is to use the experience I have accrued over the years, my directness, and my humor to help clients find their true self and exist in relationships the way they were created to. I believe that the root of all addiction is trauma. Instead of my clients asking, “What’s wrong with me?” I want them to ask themselves, “What happened to me?” From this vantage point, we can begin to walk the road of healing and break the bonds of shame. With significant experience in addiction/trauma treatment, I am able to provide my clients a deep understanding of their pain.

I help my clients overcome generational trauma and shame, addiction, grief and loss, attachment wounds, and marital conflict.
I am trained as a Certified Sexual Addiction Therapist (ASAT), Certified Trauma Therapist (CTT), EMDR I and II, and Safe and Sound Protocol. I am also an IFS (Internal Family Systems or “parts” work) informed therapist. I love doing multi-day intensive with clients and find this model to be extremely effective.

The health of any family starts with a healthy marriage.
I am trained in Brainspotting therapy to treat all kinds of trauma, anxiety, and depression. I am also trained as Pastoral Sexual Addition Professional (PSAP). I hold a masters degree in Religion (M.A.R.) which gives me a unique perspective on human hardship and suffering.

Prior to being marriage therapist, I spent time working as a financial planner and a Young Life area director.
I specialize in three types of clients - couples hanging on by a thread, men who are less than thrilled at the idea of attending therapy, and individuals that live under a constant state of performance pressure. As someone who has lived and survived all three of these scenarios personally, I've got a ton of empathy and a box of tools ready for people motivated to achieve change. Whether you're picking up the pieces from infidelity, exhausted from fighting about the same tired topics, or struggling to escape the voices in your head that beat you down, I'm honored to pull up a chair next you and begin sorting through the mess.

Examples: feeling stuck; general depression; anxiety; marital stress; general lack of joy; adjusting to changes; loss or grief.
Hello! This message isn't written by AI! This is ME, an experienced therapist who cares. Society has shifted into a high tech world; texts/Instagram/twitter dominates. TALKING with each other in person has diminished. Yet "talking/noise" absorbs mind & world! The result? An epidemic OF loneliness, anxiety, depression, infidelity, confusion & suicide. Drug use/meds is rampant but is proven not the answer to peace of mind, balance and feeling/being authentic. We cannot be authentic with anyone else if we're confused about our Self! Uncertainty of our Core Values causes anxiety, shame, depression anger at self & others.

Since 2008, I’ve been recognized as a Clinical Fellow of the American Association for Marriage & Family Therapy, reflecting my dedication to professional excellence and client care.
Shame keeps us stuck, but healing begins with honesty. Whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, compulsive behaviors, infidelity, or pornography, you deserve a safe, grace-filled space to find clarity and healing. When we bring what’s hidden into the light, it loses its power—allowing you to reclaim your dignity, integrity, and peace of mind. My approach is compassionate yet direct, blending trauma-informed care with a deep understanding of the struggles you face. We’ll make sense of your struggles and create a path toward lasting freedom and a fresh outlook. Remember, the most beautiful sunrises often follow the toughest storms.

After earning my masters in marriage & family therapy from a COAMFTE-accredited program, I've gained over 5 years of experience helping individuals, couples, and families overcome obstacles and navigate life well.
Life can feel overwhelming when you're out of sync with who you truly are. You may feel stuck, weighed down by expectations from family, work, or society, unsure of how to move forward. Over time, these pressures can make it difficult to hear your own voice and trust yourself. But within you is the capacity for growth, meaning, and change. My role is to help you slow down, turn inward, and reconnect with what matters most—so your choices, mindset, and relationships align with the life you truly want. Together, we’ll clarify your values, challenge unhelpful beliefs, and build a path forward that feels authentic and fulfilling to you!

Marriage Counseling Therapists
How does marriage counseling work?
Marriage counseling works by teaching couples concrete skills to communicate with one another and solve disagreements in healthy ways. A trained mental health professional works with both members of a couple to explore difficulties the couple may be having and helps them develop skills to address these matters. Couples who don’t have any difficulties but want to prepare for marriage may develop skills for the future.
How long does marriage counseling typically last?
Marriage counseling is a short-term form of therapy; the process may last between four and eight sessions. Other forms of relationship guidance from mental health professionals, such as couples therapy, are longer lasting, may focus on the past rather than just the present, and are tailored to the individual couple and their emotions, history, and patterns in the relationship. Couples therapy often lasts for 12 weeks or longer.
Is marriage counseling effective?
Marriage counseling helps many couples develop relationship skills that may not have been acquired or tested in a relationship; partners may be better able to communicate and address conflict following counseling. However, there are many different forms of marriage counseling, and this form of counseling does not have as strong an evidence base as other modalities such as couples therapy.
Is marriage counseling effective if only one partner wants to go?
Yes, marriage counseling can still be effective if one partner convinces the other to engage in the process. Of course, whether counseling is effective depends on the couple’s commitment to work on their relationship; however, the short-term, skills-based nature of marriage counseling makes it a relatively easy “ask” of a partner, and the hesitant individual may see its value once counseling begins.
