Presently, I am accepting new clients. I have a bachelor's in Christian ministry and a master's in counseling. My specialties are (1) relationship counseling; (2) counseling to reduce symptoms of low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, and trauma; and (3) counseling to explore one's spiritual relationship to identify obstacles that impede spiritual connection. I have extensive training in Emotionally Focused Couple's Therapy, Gottman Couple's Therapy, Brainspotting, and Trauma Competency. My sliding scale fee is $100 - $135.00. Counseling is an investment in personal growth to improve your quality of life and decision-making skills.
Equipping clients for personal growth is a high priority. Personal growth goals increase a client's 1. autonomy & personal empowerment, 2. self-regulation, 3. self-worth, and 4. relationship skills. My clients identify and work on personal goals specifically addressed to meet their needs & values. I believe in counseling. I have witnessed change.
Few counselors are trained to counsel couples. My training in both EFT and Gottman provides a plan to increase awareness of your relationship cycle and enable you to better understand your conflict triggers and patterns. New insights improve relationship skills and connection which can decrease conflict. Email me! Growth and change are possible.

Counseling is an important investment in quality of life. I offer a sliding scale fee of $100 - $135. Although I accept insurance for individual counseling, I do not accept insurance for couple's counseling. Insurance companies do not reimburse the diagnosis of relationship distress.

I use Emotionally Focused Therapy for individual and couple counseling. Research supports EFT as the premier couple therapy; EFT has the highest success rate for relationship improvement. I believe EFT is equally effective for individuals. In addition, I use interventions from other theories to create an eclectic approach to increase one's skill set to regulate emotions and manage life challenges.
