If you feel stuck in patterns that no longer work, overwhelmed by past experiences, or unsure how to move forward, you’re not alone. Many people carry the weight of trauma and painful relationships longer than they realize. I hold a PhD in Counseling and Psychological Studies with a focus on trauma and crisis work, and I’m passionate about supporting those impacted by domestic violence, intimate partner violence, selective mutism, and PTSD. My goal is to offer a safe, compassionate space where you can feel understood, build steadier coping, and begin healing in ways that help you reconnect with yourself.

As a veteran or first responder, the weight doesn’t lift at the end of your shift. The images, sounds, and split-second decisions of the job stay with you: haunting quiet moments, straining relationships, and chipping away at the sense of calm you once had. It’s traumatic – for you, and your family. You know what I’m talking about – the anger, the isolation, the emotional numbness. You find yourself snapping at loved ones, losing sleep, and feeling disconnected from the person you once were. You’ve always protected others, but now, it’s time to protect your own well-being. Healing doesn’t mean weakness; it means reclaiming yourself.

Much of my work is Christian counseling, so if you want your faith in the room, it belongs here.
With couples I use the Gottman Method, which in practice means we stop arguing about the argument and start looking at the pattern underneath it. With individuals the work is more direct. I will help you name what is actually happening, then we build a plan you can use on a Tuesday afternoon and not just in my office.

I provide play therapy for children and parent support for families in New Port Richey, FL. I work with children experiencing anxiety, big emotions, frequent meltdowns, behavior concerns, power struggles, low confidence, and difficulty adjusting to changes at home or school.
Children don't always have the words to explain what they're feeling or why they're struggling. Through play therapy, children have a developmentally appropriate way to express emotions, work through experiences, build confidence, and develop healthier ways of coping and connecting.

Many of the people I work with seek comprehensive neuropsychological testing after spending years wondering why things feel harder than they seem to for others. Some are looking for answers about ADHD or autism, while others are trying to understand mood, anxiety, or changes in memory and thinking. What they are often seeking most is clarity: a better understanding of themselves, relief from uncertainty, and a clearer sense of what to do next.

FAQ - About Christian Counselling
What can a Christian therapist help with?
Many Christian counselors incorporate faith-based principles into psychotherapy and draw guidance from biblical writings. This approach may be particularly helpful if you are experiencing concerns related to faith, prolonged grief, substance use, or questions about life’s purpose. Christian therapists may also offer marital, premarital, or family counseling. These can be helpful options if your concerns are more relational in nature, such as communication challenges in a marriage, conflict within a family, or adjustment following a major family transition, such as divorce or a move.
How does Christian faith shape the therapy experience?
Christian faith can shape the therapy experience by giving you a familiar framework for discussing meaning, purpose, forgiveness, relationships, and hope in sessions. For clients who want faith included in therapy, a Christian therapist may draw on Christian values, prayer, or spiritual reflection alongside other therapeutic approaches. In addition, while training, qualifications, and experience are always important, research has shown that a strong alliance between you and your 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. Nevertheless, an ethical Christian therapist should be clear about how they incorporate faith and should respect the level of spiritual discussion that feels right for you.
Does Christian therapy work across different denominations?
Christian therapy can be helpful for people from various different Christian traditions, including Catholic, Protestant, Evangelical, Baptist, Methodist, Presbyterian, Pentecostal, and Anglican backgrounds. Many Christian therapists are able to support clients across denominations by focusing on shared Christian values, such as faith, prayer, forgiveness, and hope. That said, denomination can matter for some clients. A person’s identified denomination may shape how they understand relationships and life roles. If these differences are important to you, it may be helpful to ask a therapist whether they have experience working with clients from your specific denomination or faith tradition.
Can a Christian therapist help with marriage and couples counseling?
Christian faith-based therapy can take many different forms, including marriage counseling and couples counseling. Some therapists may also offer Christian pre-marital counseling. In these settings, Christian therapists may work with couples on concerns such as communication, conflict, trust, intimacy, parenting, and major life transitions. A Christian therapist may also help couples explore how shared Christian beliefs shape the relationship. They may encourage you and your partner to practice skills learned in therapy in your everyday lives, including both faith-based practices and non-faith-based tools, such as prayer or communication skills.
Can a Christian therapist help with sensitive issues like sex, trauma, or addiction?
Licensed therapists with adequate training should be equipped to help with a number of sensitive issues, including sex, trauma, and addiction. For clients who want faith included in therapy, a Christian therapist may help explore how your spiritual beliefs relate to your challenges, healing, and recovery. A competent and ethical Christian therapist should not judge, shame, or impose a particular belief when discussing these topics, and if you feel judged, it may be time to seek another therapist.
How can a Christian therapist support family therapy?
Christian family therapy can help families address conflict, communication challenges, parenting concerns, grief, or adjustment following a major life transition. A Christian therapist may support family members in understanding one another’s perspectives, improving communication, setting healthier boundaries, and rebuilding trust. For families who want faith included in therapy, a Christian therapist may also help explore how family values related to Christianity can support healing.
How might I inquire about a therapist's experience working with Christian clients?
If religion is important to you in therapy, it can be helpful to ask a prospective therapist whether they have experience working with Christian clients. In initial conversations with potential therapists, you might ask how they incorporate Christian values into therapy or how they approach certain topics that matter to you. As sessions begin, it can be helpful to notice how the therapist responds to your concerns. A strong therapeutic alliance does not necessarily require a therapist to share your religious background, but they should respond to your concerns with respect and cultural humility. If you feel dismissed, misunderstood, or find yourself having to explain your beliefs constantly, it may be worth considering another therapist.
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 and have identified as Christian. It shows therapists who indicate that they have extensive experience working with Christian clients, regardless of their own background or religious affiliation. However, not all therapists choose to disclose this information, and they may not appear in search results for this reason.
