We often define ourselves by our relationships: mother, daughter, brother, father, son and often by the quality of those primary connections. When an important relationship encounters challenges, whether through separation, estrangement, alienation, loss and/or time, we can feel confused and hurt. Let's work together to heal those relationships and repair the connections, to feel complete and whole and develop our own identity with love and understanding.

I enjoy working with children, adolescents, and adults who are comfortable with a one on one approach to counseling. Working with children in therapy always involves working with the parents. As with adolescents, providing them with a sense of privacy and trust is something I try to develop from the very beginning. For adults, privacy, confidentiality, and respect occur in a atmosphere of warmth and patience. If you are dealing with Attention Deficit Disorder, Depression, Anxiety, Panic attacks, Bipolar Disorder, or Post Traumatic Stress, I am sure you will find the relief you are looking for at my office.

I believe there are three major components to a well-balanced state of mind - they are Love, Purpose, and Value. If either is missing, you could experience some level of mental distress.

I have worked extensively with individuals and families impacted by severe mental illness, providing understanding, insight, and practical knowledge.

Further, I am specifically gifted in leading others to a deeper, more intimate knowledge of God. I received a BS from Columbia International University in Columbia, S.C. where I double majored in Biblical studies and psychology. I also received a MA Clinical Psychology degree from Wheaton College.
