I am passionate about helping to empower people to become who they were created to be. I love working with women who are navigating difficult relationships both at home and at work, assisting them to achieve greater levels of confidence and life satisfaction. I am trained in several kinds of trauma treatments and am inspired by the courage and determination I see as people gain healing, putting their past in the past. I also have many years of experience supporting individuals who are either clergy families of clergy members. I am equipped to address a wide array of issues including depression, anxiety grief, and pet loss.
As a trauma therapist, I can assist in reducing the distress of traumatic or disturbing memories. I am trained in EMDR, CPT and PE therapies. I am certified in integrative primary care and support holistic approaches to healthcare, wellness, and thriving. As an animal lover, I also support people struggling with losses that are often minimized by others.
I have over 20 years of experience and work with each individual to develop a plan and approach tailored to your specific needs. I am especially interested in assisting church leaders to be effective in their ministries. As a pastor's wife, I am sensitive to the issues in families of church leaders.
