I believe many adults are living an unfulfilled life due to unprocessed traumatic events that took place in their past. Present hardships may also encourage poor decision making which can result in regrets. Using biblical principles, I help guide individuals during their toughest seasons, and remind them that hope still lives. In addition to adults, I am experienced in helping adolescents cope and process traumatic events through evidence based techniques such as trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy. These events may include, but are not limited to rape, abandonment, abuse, divorced parents, and human trafficking.

Do you worry uncontrollably? Do you have difficulties feeling uncertain and have a low tolerance for distress or anxiety? Do you often do things to get rid of your thoughts and it just gets worse? Is it difficult to manage how you respond to your emotions? Do you have thoughts that you “aren’t good enough” or feel guilty about things you think you “should”/“shouldn’t” have done? Have you gone through a difficult life situation which is difficult to overcome? Do you experience difficulties in social relationships? Do you have trouble accepting the way you look? Do you struggle with tics, skin picking, hair pulling or nail biting?

Life is a constant flow of change. The end of one chapter and the beginning of another. With change comes the need to adjust and adapt, but also the need to grieve, to refocus, and to summon courage for what lies ahead. Whether you are struggling to meet the expectations of a new role, coping with the loss of an identity or crutch, or wondering how to navigate a new adventure in life—it makes sense that you may need some support along the way. In your search, the question that you really want answered is, “Will it get better?” I believe it will. In our sessions, I help adults and teens discover how to move through seasons of change.

You might be feeling anxious lately, without knowing the cause, and this anxiety is making you feel isolated and alone. Or perhaps it's harder to muster up the energy for life, - you feel heavy or irritable and the things you used to do with ease are now drudgery. You're not sure why. Confused and lost in a maze of difficult emotions, you don't know what to do. You know that there is more to yourself and your life if you can just change the way you are feeling, but you don't know how.

The pain of splitting up or staying together in misery is obvious. Most couples have a shared history, worthy of making every effort to stay together and figure things out. Couples with children have an extra incentive to stay together. The financial and emotional costs of divorce can be devastating. Our model of tailored treatment provides greater opportunity for success for relationships in crisis. While sometimes effective, traditional marriage counseling and couple's therapy consists of hour-long therapy sessions once per week. We find this approach severely limiting and even potentially harmful for relationships in severe distress.
