Welcome! You may look like you have it all together, but inside you may feel anxious, overwhelmed, or weighed down by wounds that don't heal. Perhaps you’re navigating betrayal, struggling in your marriage, or battling the quiet hurt of feeling unseen. You want clarity, peace, and freedom from the past. My clients are strong, high-functioning women and men who are tired of just coping—they long for real healing and lasting change. They want to feel calm, connected, and restored, both within themselves and in their relationships.
I offer faith-integrated, trauma-informed therapy that goes beyond symptom relief to address the root of your pain. Using EMDR, Brainspotting, and other evidence-based methods, I help clients heal from anxiety, betrayal, and trauma. Together we create a safe, supportive space where you can find clarity, resilience, and renewed hope.
Healing doesn’t happen by pushing harder or pretending you’re fine. It happens in a safe relationship where you feel seen and supported. If you’ve felt stuck, please know you don’t have to walk this alone. Whether in therapy, an intensive, or a retreat, I’d be honored to walk alongside you as you take the next step toward freedom, peace, and joy.

I help clients with anxiety, trauma, and relational wounds. I complete a thorough biopsychosocial assessment to get to the root, so we can identify the best course of treatment. From there, I use a customized blend of EMDR, Brainspotting, CBT, ACT; Christian (if desired) & family systems therapies. I also offer intensives and retreats for those seeking deeper or accelerated healing.
