As a Christian psychologist, I work closely with clients and explore experiences to find the meanings and lessons God is trying to teach us in this life. Together, we work towards changing the emotional triggers of trauma, thereby affecting how you respond to the world. Everything we do makes perfect sense when you look at it with a wide enough lens. To change and learn requires understanding why it makes sense. I work in a way that honors you as a unique child of God.
I specialize in sexual trauma, depression, grief as well as geriatric and disability issues. I have several years experience working with dissociative disorders in a manner that respects the experience of the person while building an integrative system of internal dialogue.
Trauma is often a difficult conversation to have. I focus on creating a safe environment to help you explore these and other challenges life has presented in a manner that aligns with your faith values.

Working collaboratively, I use experiential and cognitive behavioral methods to help you make the change you seek. Change is not always easy, so taking a non-judgmental view of yourself, we can work together to help you find your purpose in life while instilling hope for change in areas of struggle. I do this using Redecision therapy, a technique that allows you to see yourself in a new way.
