Helping You Heal, Grow, and Strengthen Relationships.
I work from a Christian perspective to help individuals and couples heal from emotional wounds and relationship struggles. Whether you're facing depression, anxiety, anger, addiction, or the pain of broken relationships, I integrate faith with psychological techniques to support your healing journey. My clients come from all backgrounds, and for those who prefer a strictly clinical approach, I respectfully focus on evidence-based therapeutic methods.
For couples, I offer guidance in improving communication, deepening intimacy, and rebuilding trust after betrayal. I also provide premarital counseling to help engaged couples lay a strong foundation for their future together.
I understand the nervousness that comes with starting therapy. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe to be your authentic self. If we work together, you’ll find that I bring not just professional expertise but also a down-to-earth, slightly quirky, and genuine approach to our sessions.
If you’re ready, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.

Groups
Sexual Addiction Group for Men
A group for men struggling with sex addiction, compulsive sexual thoughts, impulses, or behaviors. This is a process-oriented, group that addresses the emotional needs, wounds or traumas that have enabled the addiction to continue. We give tools to achieve "sobriety" and emphasize living from the "authentic self," experiencing intimacy through learning to share from the deeper places of our hearts, and give empathy to one another without judgement or problem-solving. Note: To ensure a positive experience, new members must be screened prior to joining. This group is NOT designed for men who have physically or sexually assaulted others.
