We offer Christian-based therapy for real-life issues. We are a professionally trained staff of therapists with experience in the areas of depression, anxiety, relationship issues, victims of abuse, ADD, codependency and trauma resolution. Life can be difficult and presents us with hurdles that we can't overcome on our own. Sometimes we need a compassionate, caring and unbiased person to turn to in times of loss, depression and conflict. We provide you with quality, Christian-based guidance that will help you not only to overcome your present adversities, but also to achieve a happier and more fulfilled future.

If you are trying to figure things out as to why you are feeling the way you do, I may be able to help. People tend to know that there is something wrong or off but they just can't pin point to what is causing it or how to overcome it. Together through therapy sessions we can come to an understanding of root causes to feelings and thoughts. Let us work together and establish some goals that are realistic, short term and attainable. Asking for help at times may be difficult due to some stigma attached to it, I have experience working with clients who were reluctant to seek it.

I highly value taking an individualized, culturally-informed approach with each of my clients, meeting each of them where they are at developmentally while also supporting them to optimize what innate talents they possess.

If you need professional help, I look forward to working with you in a safe, professional, and judgment free manner.

I am passionate about helping you develop a greater understanding of who you are as an individual and within the context of your relationships and life experiences. If you are looking to feel more connected and lead a more fulfilling life, you've come to the right place. My core belief is that we all do the best we can with what we have; and I hope to help you find more compassion with yourself while learning to take actionable steps to support your goals.
