Our personal histories often include some challenging experiences that influence us in many ways. My personal life experiences influence the way that I listen, understand and support people in their personal journeys. I offer an environment where you can safely explore your challenges, identify your personal strengths and skills, and develop the confidence that your are able to manage your life in ways that bring you hope and fullfillment.

Do you feel like you are strapped on a roller coaster of anxiety and depression and can't get off the ride? We can feel out of control because of life changes, relationships, and significant events. We can become stuck in our own unhealthy thoughts, emotions, actions, and responses. Sometimes we hyper-focus on relationships and fixing other people. Or we may develop unhealthy patterns when using things outside of ourselves to experience immediate relief and help us cope. This may include alcohol, marijuana, pills, food, porn, exercise, gaming, social media, shopping, and gambling.

If life seems confusing, heavy or difficult, I believe that together we can empower you to successfully face areas of concern; we can look at patterns that have developed and how to lessen their grip on you; we can learn new coping skills to help you maneuver in a supportive and connecting manner; we can find joy and hope in your life. Together we can develop strategies to help you reach your unique goals and develop a strong sense of self to embrace life.

Many people have difficulty adapting to life's unforeseen challenges and seeking help can feel equally challenging. I believe that psychotherapy is invaluable in improving one's quality of life. Our experiences and characteristics can cause conflict in our relationships with ourselves & others. I value each individual's story as it creates our present day reality. Making sense of our life can be difficult to achieve alone. My approach is to help couples develop healthier, more adaptive relationships; nurture stable & respectful relationships; and move beyond the state of feeling "stuck" and toward growth.

I AM ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS OVER TELEHEALTH AND IN PERSON DURING COVID-19. Everyone has a story. . . of joy and sorrow, love and sadness, wounds and healing. Everyone's story is sacred and waiting to be discovered. But often we struggle to read our story because of depression, anxiety, past pains, or relational difficulties. My vision is to enable people to experience God's powerful grace in order to live in true freedom, transformation and discovery. I provide a pathway for people struggling on the journey to find hope for their broken hearts, healing for their wounds, and a hiding place to wrestle with the grace of God.

From the outside looking in, people see someone who “has it together.” Perhaps this is related to your family, job, marriage or community. From the inside looking out, you see a world full of pressures, expectations and a need to cultivate happiness for those in your life, sometimes at the expense of your own sanity. I often hear from clients that they feel “stuck” in the same cycle of life and can’t seem to find satisfaction, despite having many of life’s “checkboxes” marked off. Experiences of chronic anxiety and worry are common though they keep moving through the motions of life.

So many middle school girls are struggling socially right now. What do you do if this was supposed to be "your year" to put yourself out there and make friends, and instead you're stuck at home in your room all day? It can be hard to stay in touch with people when you’re trying to talk over a bunch of other kids in an all-class Zoom call. This is especially true for girls who feel their interests don't always line up with other girls their age--how do you meet other like-minded people who are going to really "get" you?

They seek additional courage and confidence and greater balance. I help my clients live in integrity, exist in deeper connection with others, and engage in meaningful relationships.
