Do you feel stuck? Are you tired of going through the same routines and habits that aren’t working? I am a Licensed Professional Counselor dedicated to helping individuals navigate through life's challenges and find a path to emotional and mental well-being. I treat OCD, trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety, anger, and spiritual issues. My goal is to support you in getting unstuck and moving towards a more fulfilling life.
My journey into counseling has been diverse. Prior to becoming a counselor I was an electrician and I also served as a youth pastor. I developed an understanding of spiritual issues and the importance of faith in the healing process.
Whether you are struggling with emotional/mental challenges or looking to explore your faith, I'm here to help. I enjoy using EMDR (trained by EMDRIA), ACT, CBT, and IFS. Let's work together to feel better, improve your satisfaction with life, and enhance your relationships.
