Becoming a counselor was the last thing I thought I would ever do. Growing up broken I never thought God would use me to help bring restoration to others. After years of healing and also seeing so many injustices in the world God spoke to me about the brake down of families. Family can bring much joy but also pain, such as divorce, abuse, neglect, entanglement and more. Gods hope is to restore the Christian home. Often, we want a redo with where we came from but God wants to start the process of healing with you in order to not continue the generational sin, and pain. This is why I became a counselor. There are times God wont take
I focus on Pastoral Care/Temperament Therapy, to help identify codependency, unmet needs and better understanding of self. I also consider Cognitive Behavior Therapy for individuals that struggle with anxiety, and depression. I use Biblical truths in order to obtain long lasting change, while understanding your true identity in Christi.
I desire a place for you to be met with comfort and empathy and to also have the opportunity to be yourself. We all have our own life experiences with living in this fallen world that at times seem unmanageable but with Gods help we can bring lasting change to your life while identifies some false believes that may have you stuck.
