Seeking help is not easy. It takes courage to step out and be vulnerable and I want to commend you for taking this first step. I understand - life can be messy, hard, painful, and complicated, but I want you to know, there is hope - and help is available. Do you struggle with finding purpose in life? Do you struggle with depression, anxiety, life stressors or addiction? Is your marriage having problems? You don’t have to face these challenges alone. I would be honored to walk alongside you during this season. I promise to listen, offer support, guidance, and tools to help you navigate through this season of life.
Compassion, integrity, and respect are foundational principles that are weaved into the counseling relationship and the services I provide. In addition, I offer practical tools to assist you in your growth. My desire is that you will experience mental, emotional, and spiritual healing. Christian and Faith-based counseling are gladly provided.
“You can’t go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending.” - C.S. Lewis. I am committed to meet you where you are, making our time together a safe place for you to be open about your struggles without feeling judged. I am here to support you in this process and I would love to connect with you!
