Have you ever asked yourself, “Why am I like this?” or “Why do I feel like I’m stuck?” You may be shocked to find out but the answer to these questions already rests inside of you. My job is to walk alongside you in your process of discovery and to be an ally and advocate along the journey. I am ready to help you discover meaning and a deep sense of peace that you have been seeking for some period of time. I provide therapy that is affirming to whoever you are and however you understand yourself by being non-judgmental, supportive, and encouraging of your journey of self-discovery and healing of wounds, new and old.
I provide therapeutic support in a number of modalities including psychodynamic, Rogerian, CBT, and trauma specific cognitive-behavioral. As an ordained minister, I am also well versed in religious and spirituality concerns including religious trauma. Further, I am prepared to help you on your journey of healthy sexuality free of stigma, shame, and doubt.
I have additional training and professional experience with neurodegenerative illnesses (such as Alzheimer's and dementias) and I am certified to issue the MOCA Exam. If you'd like to begin your process of healing, self-exploration, and affirmation, please don't hesitate to reach out today and get in touch. The journey back to your true self is waiting!

You are in the driver's seat for therapy! By using a Client Centered approach, we will talk about and treat that which is most pressing and most important to you. I bring no agenda. Instead, I provide an open, warm, and inviting space for you to engage with what is most needed because you say that it is. This approach leads to empowerment, finding your voice, and learning to advocate for yourself.
