As a Spiritual Director and a Faith-based Counselor, I help women get unstuck spiritually, relationally, and emotionally.

I help individuals that are experiencing grief, life transitions, wanting healthier relationships, dealing with toxic family members, wanting to experience more of their true self and worth, and who are experiencing anxiety, or depression. I help individuals create a healthier spiritual life with God and help women discover more of their voice and true self.

Need urgent work on your relationship? Can't do weekly counseling? Want real answers, not just a listening ear? There's a better way... With an intensive approach... You set aside several days all at once with two professionals to learn principles and tools that would take you 6 months of ordinary couples therapy to learn. You complete clinical assessments before we meet to immediately have an "x-ray" of the core, hidden causes of what's holding you back. With those keys, we can then custom-design how scientifically proven relationship tools can be applied to your unique relationship. Together we demonstrate how to use these tools.
