While my counseling philosophies are informed by a biblical worldview, I will in no way pressure or require you to uphold my morals, values, or religious beliefs. As the client I respect your value/belief system and will ask that you inform how that is incorporated into counseling.

Ours will be a collaborative relationship in which we work together openly and honestly to create a greater understanding of your unique self and your relationships with others, identify attainable short and long-term goals, process emotions, enhance self-esteem, and instill hope through the altering of thoughts and behaviors.
Just like going to the doctor, sometimes we need an emotional checkup. Counseling is an opportunity for you to work on yourself, relationships, goals, depression/anxiety, ADHD and other issues or diagnoses preventing you from living life as you wish to. Each session belongs to the client--it is your place to focus solely on you. My experience includes eight years of individual and family therapy. Additionally, I have 10 years of experience working with family dynamics in academic, learning disorders and life skills coaching as well as academic counseling.

Life can sometimes lead you to situations that you could never imagine you would be in. You can often think “What do I do next? where do we go from here”? The pressures of “where do I want to be vs. where am I expected to be” can become overwhelming. Are you currently in a relationship that feels “stuck” and suffering in communication? Are you newly engaged and want to make sure your relationship is rooted in healthy communication, transparency, and trust? I work with clients who may feel these things and are opened to taking the next step to explore solutions. Therapy with me can make life feel hopeful again.

I love helping individuals and couples recover their creativity! "What do you plan to do with your one, wild precious life?" - Mary Oliver.
After many years of supporting positive change, I have found that courage and hope need insight and clarity to flourish. Whether you suffer from anxiety, depression, addiction or relational challenges it helps to have a guide who will not only listen to your experience, but who can also recognize dynamics that are at play in our thoughts and feelings. I wrote a book called Choosing to Evolve - A User's Guide to Waking Up. In it, I share some of the many discoveries that clients have made in uncovering hidden scripts that had kept them stuck in repetitive cycles and frustrating limitations. Create an ecstatic life!

Couples Counseling Therapists
Does couples counseling work?
Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.
When should a couple seek counseling?
Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.
How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?
The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.
How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?
The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
