Are you lost? Lonely? Grieving? Acting or thinking in ways you don't understand? Looking for something more in your life? Not knowing what the next step is? Wanting to make big, positive changes (or even small ones) and don't know how? I love helping people explore their lives and themselves! Let's find out what's next, what's inside, what you want and who you are! We can talk, draw, play, sit... many ways to explore the issues you want to understand. Depression, anxiety, life transitions, grief & loss, childhood trauma. My goal is to help you find your best version of yourself. I LOVE helping others walk through any obstacle.
Together we custom designed a plan to meet specific goals for you (age 2 to 102). I provide Christian Counseling for those who desire Biblical insights. I enjoy having a trained emotional support dog and find that pets are often highly beneficial to clients overall in reaching treatment goals. I look forward to hearing from you.
I combine both old & new: Traditional psychology centers around what's "wrong" inside you, but contemporary psychology looks at what's "right". I aim to keep up with trends--like technology to calm stress--creating an effective combo of what works and feels right to you.
