You can be capable, accomplished, and still feel emotionally exhausted.
I work with adults who are high-functioning on the outside but carrying anxiety, relationship stress, emotional overload, or burnout beneath the surface. Many of my clients are professionals, caregivers, or partners who are used to being strong and dependable often for everyone else while feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of themselves.
My work focuses on helping individuals and couples understand patterns, strengthen emotional awareness, and build healthier boundaries without shame or pressure to “fix” themselves. Therapy with me is thoughtful.

You’re doing your best — but it feels like it’s never enough. You’re tired of feeling like the weight is all on you. Whether you’re struggling in your relationship, battling anxiety or burnout, or trying to break cycles from your past, I help people get unstuck and find real healing.
I specialize in working with men, couples, and parents who are carrying more than they realize. If you’re navigating conflict, stress, trauma, or disconnection — especially after betrayal or breakdown in trust — we’ll work together to understand the deeper patterns and build tools that actually help.

Life can be more than a little challenging at times. These challenges can leave you feeling isolated, overwhelmed, or stuck. While support from family and friends is important and meaningful, it can sometimes feel complicated. You may worry about being a burden, feel judged, or hesitate to share openly out of fear of causing concern. That’s where I come in.
As a therapist, I offer a space that is free of judgment, pressure, or emotional entanglement. I provide objective, compassionate support to help you explore your thoughts and feelings honestly—without having to protect or filter for someone else’s sake.

I have a passion for helping kids, teens, young adults, and parents. A former lawyer, business executive, and educator, I blend unique life experiences with a compassionate approach to therapy. With six kids of my own, I empathize with young people and parents alike. On a personal level, I also love to travel. Having explored over 30 different countries, I realize the importance of cultural diversity and how it enriches our understanding of the world. My experiences shape my counseling practice as I strive to connect with clients from all walks of life. I also enjoy coaching youth sports, dark coffee, and a good book.

Christian Therapists
Why is it important for a therapist to be culturally sensitive?
Therapists and clients don’t need to share the same belief system or background to be able to work effectively together, but a therapist whose training includes a focus on cultural competence may be better able to form a therapeutic bond with individuals from a range of backgrounds, as they will have experience in tailoring their approach to each client—and will be prepared to acknowledge and consider the effects of culture, religion, and other factors on each individual.
Why is it important to find a therapist sensitive to Christian values?
Each person brings a unique history and background to therapy, making it important to find a licensed therapist who is trained in a broad range of treatment modalities. In addition, for people who grow up in a faith tradition that strongly influences the way they conduct their everyday life, finding a therapist who understands or shares that background can ease the disclosure of sensitive information and facilitate the therapeutic process. For some clients, a Christian therapist is likely to incorporate faith-based principles into emotional healing techniques.
How do I recognize an effective Christian therapist?
Christian therapists are licensed mental health professionals—holding a master’s or doctoral degree in medicine, nursing, psychology, counseling, social work, or marriage and family therapy—who are also familiar with Christian beliefs and values. They have an understanding of the importance that Christian principles play in the lives of individuals and families, which allows them to be especially sensitive to the kinds of struggles that can affect daily functioning. Like all effective therapists, a Christian therapist will have undergone training and certification in a variety of treatment modalities that help people through crises and enable them to master the challenges of life.
Why might someone feel comfortable with a Christian therapist?
While training, qualifications, and experience are always important, research has long established that a strong alliance between client and therapist is a major contributor to therapeutic success. An alliance is likely to be strengthened with a therapist who not only is responsive to questions and concerns but also shares a client’s faith and values. Sensitivity to spiritual matters as well as to everyday struggles can provide a welcome sense of safety and contribute to the bond between client and therapist, both of which support the therapeutic process.
Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Christian therapists?
The directory of Christian therapists includes professionals who have shared their background in their profiles. However, not all therapists choose to disclose this information, and they may not appear in search results for this reason. The directory also shows therapists who indicate that they have extensive experience working with Christian clients, regardless of their own background or religious affiliation.
