Are you tired of living in an emotional hell where your relationships are struggles instead of pleasurable meaningful experiences? Do you have trouble with interpersonal effectiveness as well as controlling your emotions? Do you find yourself battling with depression and anxiety? Are you frequently experiencing conflicts with you partner? Considered marriage or couples counseling ? Do you find that your communication skills are indirect and you are not getting what you want? Are you grieving the loss of a spouse, child or friend? Do you feel stuck and unable to move forward? Are you looking for your a life worth living?

You feel like you struggle to stay the course, and yet life continues to shift and change. You are searching for higher ground, but often feel like you are sinking. No matter how hard you dig in, you may have an underlying feeling of fear or uneasiness. Regardless of what you are going through, you put on a mask that speaks differently than how you feel. Some days you walk through the pain, and look for the sunshine, while other days it can feel overcast. Motivation to continue responsibilities is difficult. Self- care is an unfamiliar concept that applies to others, but not for you. Walking through each day feels redundant.

Mistakes don't make you a bad person. They make you human. Hurt and pain are real, but they have no right to immobilize you. Doubt and confusion cloud your judgment, and steal your ability to make sound decisions. Guilt and shame will tell you there is no reason to try. But I assure you that for every problem there is a solution. I would like to assist you in successfully getting through your journey to wholeness and completeness. I am a Christian Counselor and a Clinical Social Worker, licensed at the Master's level in individual and group counseling.

I provide an eclectic approach, primarily utilizing behavioral, humanistic, psycho-spiritual, and inner child modalities – with a specialization in complex trauma, shadow work, generational patterns, and the journey to authenticity. My practice is person-centered, meaning that I’m a guide in your exploration of self – I may be nudging and pointing things out, but you, as the client, are ultimately leading where we go. My goal is to enrich and point out the positive traits that you already possess, and offer acknowledgment into aspects of yourself or your circumstances that you maybe haven’t seen yet.

At the core of my work is a strong belief in providing high-quality therapeutic services to people of all ages, couples, and families. As a psychologist, my primary goal is to offer the best care and support to my clients through personalized treatment plans. I am committed to creating a safe and non-judgmental space where clients can freely explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. By tailoring my therapeutic approaches to meet each individual's unique needs and goals, I aim to empower clients to achieve personal growth, healing, and positive transformation.

Do you feel you are playing a role in your own life and are ready to be the main character? You have been waiting, sitting with your thoughts and may even imagine yourself in a different relationship or environment. You have been going through the motions for so long, you have forgotten that you are: capable, independent and resilient. Perhaps you have been relying on others opinions and emotions, over your own instincts. You often strive for perfectionism and feel the need to maintain control.
