At LFC our core values are described in the acronym of R.E.A.C.H. R = Relationships: building a healthy relationship with Jesus to have healthy relationship with others. E = Empathy & Compassion: all our counselors have experienced their own trials and tribulations in life. A = Acceptance: We believe God created us all uniquely and all individuals respond differently to their environment, others and situations. C = Confidentiality: confidentiality is of utmost importance. H = Healing: the ultimate goal in our counseling is to bring healing to mind, body and spirit.

I believe in the primary importance of the relationship between the client and therapist. Within this unique relationship, insight and healing can occur. I have a relational, psychodynamic orientation, and I utilize cognitive behavioral techniques to help people to structure the changes they want to make in their lives. I believe that people can heal from addiction and other unhealthy coping styles when they can identity and manage their emotions, cultivate rewarding connections with others, and develop a compassionate relationship with themselves.

As a professional, I have advanced knowledge and experience in understanding the thoughts and feelings that underlie many issues, especially eating disorders. It helps to recognize any thoughts that may keep you stuck in old behaviors that use to serve you well. It helps to learn new coping skills, to give you the power to move forward.
