As a therapist for Gen-Z and millennial women, I use CBT and Christian counseling to help with generational cycles, anxiety, low self-esteem, and relationship concerns.
The challenge to share your true feelings has become a silent battle as you hide behind an image you've meticulously constructed. You have caught yourself comparing your internal struggles to others' seemingly perfect external appearances. Finding yourself feeling disheartened, pouring time and effort into various aspects of your life, yet constantly feeling a sense of inadequacy. A realization that you may be slipping into familiar patterns of isolation, doubts, and fears.

I work with teens & twenty-something’s navigating perfectionism and anxiety as highly sensitive people. You aren’t sure if you’re actually depressed or just feeling stuck. You know you’re likely highly sensitive (HSP), but are worried you’re feeling more overwhelmed than you should. As an emerging adult, you may be struggling with college stress or career decisions, romantic relationships, family dynamics, or all of the above.

I offer specialized therapy methods including Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) for trauma, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) for emotional regulation, mindfulness-based therapy for stress, and faith-based counseling for Christian clients.
If you've ever felt guilty for feeling pain because "it could be worse" or that you should be more grateful, you're not alone. It's normal to feel conflicted when your emotions don't seem to match what others expect, but your feelings are still real and deserve attention. When grief is complicated or unrecognized, it can be even harder to process—but you don’t have to go through it alone. I specialize in helping people navigate complicated grief, life transitions, unresolved loss, and emotional pain that’s hard to explain. Together, we’ll make sense of your experience and find a path toward healing and hope.

Additionally, my education through a faith-based program equipped me for Christian counseling, another specialty I offer for those seeking a spiritual component.
Trauma shows up in all shapes and sizes—maybe from one life-altering event or years of buildup. If left unprocessed, it can quietly (or not-so-quietly) wreak havoc on your life. You might feel irritable, on edge, anxious for no clear reason, or just…off. If you're experiencing feelings or emotions that don't seem to match the situation, it could be your mind and body’s way of saying it’s time to heal. Trauma doesn’t just stay in the past—it affects relationships, work, and self-perception. The good news? You don’t have to carry it alone. Therapy can help you process and heal in a safe environment.

I facilitate over a dozen Christian recovery groups.
My passion is to help people rebuild their relationship with God; to thrive in sobriety. I have extensive experience with individuals that struggle with addictive and compulsive behaviors such as: sex, pornography, drugs, alcohol, codependent relationships, etc. Over the past few years, I obtained more specialized education to specifically assist with sex, pornography and lust addiction through the work of Dr. Patrick Carnes Ph.D; a pioneer in the field of sex addiction. His work combined with a method to heal relational/attachment wounds, called "IFS", is the best strategy that I have found for recovery.

Christian Therapists
Why is it important for a therapist to be culturally sensitive?
Therapists and clients don’t need to share the same belief system or background to be able to work effectively together, but a therapist whose training includes a focus on cultural competence may be better able to form a therapeutic bond with individuals from a range of backgrounds, as they will have experience in tailoring their approach to each client—and will be prepared to acknowledge and consider the effects of culture, religion, and other factors on each individual.
Why is it important to find a therapist sensitive to Christian values?
Each person brings a unique history and background to therapy, making it important to find a licensed therapist who is trained in a broad range of treatment modalities. In addition, for people who grow up in a faith tradition that strongly influences the way they conduct their everyday life, finding a therapist who understands or shares that background can ease the disclosure of sensitive information and facilitate the therapeutic process. For some clients, a Christian therapist is likely to incorporate faith-based principles into emotional healing techniques.
How do I recognize an effective Christian therapist?
Christian therapists are licensed mental health professionals—holding a master’s or doctoral degree in medicine, nursing, psychology, counseling, social work, or marriage and family therapy—who are also familiar with Christian beliefs and values. They have an understanding of the importance that Christian principles play in the lives of individuals and families, which allows them to be especially sensitive to the kinds of struggles that can affect daily functioning. Like all effective therapists, a Christian therapist will have undergone training and certification in a variety of treatment modalities that help people through crises and enable them to master the challenges of life.
Why might someone feel comfortable with a Christian therapist?
While training, qualifications, and experience are always important, research has long established that a strong alliance between client and therapist is a major contributor to therapeutic success. An alliance is likely to be strengthened with a therapist who not only is responsive to questions and concerns but also shares a client’s faith and values. Sensitivity to spiritual matters as well as to everyday struggles can provide a welcome sense of safety and contribute to the bond between client and therapist, both of which support the therapeutic process.
Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Christian therapists?
The directory of Christian therapists includes professionals who have shared their background in their profiles. However, not all therapists choose to disclose this information, and they may not appear in search results for this reason. The directory also shows therapists who indicate that they have extensive experience working with Christian clients, regardless of their own background or religious affiliation.
