You have taken an incredibly positive and courageous step by deciding to seek therapy, and I am honored to walk alongside you during this journey. It is my belief that every individual possesses the strength necessary to grow, heal, and live from a place of restoration. Trauma-informed approaches are the foundation of my work as a counselor and I welcome you to take a step toward healing.
I work with teens & adults (13+) who need support around emotional, relational, and behavioral concerns. I am trained and experienced in helping recover from issues such as trauma, complex trauma, relational conflict within marriage and family, anxiety, depression, life transitions, addiction, grief/loss, and issues of faith and spirituality.
I offer an evidenced-based approach to help adults and teens strengthen their relationships with themselves, others, and God. I utilize a combination of evidence-based therapeutic frameworks to improve outcomes and work together toward a place of restoration, lasting emotional and relational health and overall well-being.

I work with clients who may be struggling with depression or trauma related to their relationships or family. During initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients experience a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.
