As a therapist, my primary focus is to help adults who are grappling with depression, anxiety, shame, substance use recovery, and emotional trauma. I am working towards/training on perinatal and postpartum mental health, and have a special interest in working with mommas with lactation/feeding challenges. These challenges can be immensely difficult to face alone, and my goal is to offer you a supportive and healing space. We will work together to help you gain a deeper understanding of yourself through the cultivation of self awareness, self acceptance, and taking back control of your own thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

Many people are constrained in their relationships as a result of the meanings they make of their life experiences. Therapy is an opportunity to tell their stories in the safety of a non-judgmental therapeutic environment. I am a process consultant who understands that the client is the expert in their own lives and encourage the client’s active participation in the therapeutic process. I am intentional about demonstrating cultural humility by allowing my clients to express their cultural experiences and teach me the nuances. As a systemic thinker, I believe that the behaviors of individuals are influenced by generational patterns.

First and foremost I am a Biblically based Christian counselor, but I strive to meet the needs of all of my clients regardless of faith affiliation.
A light shines in the darkness and the darkness has not overcome it. Many experience a crisis of faith in troubling times. Perhaps you're facing grief, trauma, life changes, illness, or other difficulties. Maybe you're having trouble figuring out why these things are happening to you and it just doesn't seem fair. The truth is, we can't prepare for everything and sometimes we need a little help. In our first session I really want to understand your needs and how I can be most helpful. My goal is make sure you feel heard and know that there is in fact a light in the darkness and I'm here to help you find it.

I also offer faith-based, Christian therapy to those that request it.
Our mind is a battlefield. Individuals often fight thoughts and feelings of guilt, shame, worthlessness, and regret throughout their lifetime and often engage in maladaptive behaviors to medicate the pain they are dealing with. Many times mental health problems stem from spiritual issues and deep rooted, distorted core beliefs. When life gets rough, these core beliefs often rise to the surface and cause us to go in a downward spiral of depression and negative harmful behaviors. Therapy is a powerful ally to help conquer the negative and often debilitating thoughts that try to take over every aspect of our lives.

Christian Therapists
Why is it important for a therapist to be culturally sensitive?
Therapists and clients don’t need to share the same belief system or background to be able to work effectively together, but a therapist whose training includes a focus on cultural competence may be better able to form a therapeutic bond with individuals from a range of backgrounds, as they will have experience in tailoring their approach to each client—and will be prepared to acknowledge and consider the effects of culture, religion, and other factors on each individual.
Why is it important to find a therapist sensitive to Christian values?
Each person brings a unique history and background to therapy, making it important to find a licensed therapist who is trained in a broad range of treatment modalities. In addition, for people who grow up in a faith tradition that strongly influences the way they conduct their everyday life, finding a therapist who understands or shares that background can ease the disclosure of sensitive information and facilitate the therapeutic process. For some clients, a Christian therapist is likely to incorporate faith-based principles into emotional healing techniques.
How do I recognize an effective Christian therapist?
Christian therapists are licensed mental health professionals—holding a master’s or doctoral degree in medicine, nursing, psychology, counseling, social work, or marriage and family therapy—who are also familiar with Christian beliefs and values. They have an understanding of the importance that Christian principles play in the lives of individuals and families, which allows them to be especially sensitive to the kinds of struggles that can affect daily functioning. Like all effective therapists, a Christian therapist will have undergone training and certification in a variety of treatment modalities that help people through crises and enable them to master the challenges of life.
Why might someone feel comfortable with a Christian therapist?
While training, qualifications, and experience are always important, research has long established that a strong alliance between client and therapist is a major contributor to therapeutic success. An alliance is likely to be strengthened with a therapist who not only is responsive to questions and concerns but also shares a client’s faith and values. Sensitivity to spiritual matters as well as to everyday struggles can provide a welcome sense of safety and contribute to the bond between client and therapist, both of which support the therapeutic process.
Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Christian therapists?
The directory of Christian therapists includes professionals who have shared their background in their profiles. However, not all therapists choose to disclose this information, and they may not appear in search results for this reason. The directory also shows therapists who indicate that they have extensive experience working with Christian clients, regardless of their own background or religious affiliation.
