Are you wanting more from your marriage, your relationship with your kids, your career, or yourself? Here at Paraclete, we want to walk alongside you in your journey.

Anxious, stressed, or worried? On a scale from 1 to 10, how often do these feelings dominate your day? If this sounds like you, I am happy to help.

There are certain things that you can expect to happen each year, but there are also things that happen that we didn’t expect or see coming at all - things we didn’t plan for.

I help clients experience peace, hope, motivation, self-love, practice boundary setting, enhance communication, and build resilience. You are worth good things! Feel seen and heard during a session with me, and make a deposit in your overall quality of life. That's something to get excited about!

Because it is YOUR TIME and You are worth all of the time energy you spend building a life that lights you up inside. The people I am most able to help will sometimes have a hard time believing that anyone has a life that lights them up inside, that it is even possible to be that excited about waking up. Struggles with self-harm, chronic suicidality, self-esteem, depression, and trauma backgrounds...these folks are the folks that will find a willing and capable ally in me.

As a private practitioner, my clients range in age from 17-65 and bring to counseling a diverse set of issues ranging from human sexuality, abuse, drug use, mood disorders (e.g. Anxiety & Depression), serious mental illness and family, parenting and marriage issues.

Once trust is cultivated and the issues are unveiled, we're able to move forward with a Person Centered focus that intersects psychology and a biblical worldview.
