As you navigate life's ups and downs, therapy can be a soothing process that makes the ride smoother. Talking to someone trained and professional allows you to share your inner most thoughts and feelings in a safe, nonjudgmental environment. As you learn to relinquish old patterns of behavior and adopt new coping skills, you will feel more confident and secure. Your life will take on a new depth and richness that you can call your own.

You may have found yourself stumbling over the same problem. Some are experiencing anxiety or depression. Perhaps your irritation over situations is overriding your previous levels of patience. You find yourself avoiding challenges, at times even avoiding relationships. It is time to consider a different alternative. Psychotherapy offers a reflective view of your past life experiences and their impact on you overtime. Often when analyzing the reflective experience, it explains current feelings and responses and allows you to become objective. This objectivity gives you clarity and increases your choices and control.

Using a strength based approach, I begin with positivity and goals at the forefront. I have over 15 years of expereince. With compassionate listening, I approach each situation according to specific needs. I use your own strengths and experiences to navigate through your current situation in hopes to create boundaries with effective coping. I encourage independence and specialize in building life long skills to promote successful relationships. Most importantly, the relationship you have with yourself. I value my clients and work very hard to maintain retention with trust and communication. I have experience with all ages.

In Matthew 19:26 Jesus spoke these words "..with God all things are possible". It does not matter how long you have been struggling in life or how obscure the future looks; what seems impossible with man is possible with God. As an Ordained Minister providing biblical counsel for over 10 years I recognize the need to bring inner healing to others. We are all divinely created by God with a unique, inborn temperament. As a Licensed Clinical Pastoral Counselor my therapeutic approach integrates temperament therapy with sound biblical doctrine to bring harmony within the spirit, soul, and body. (I Thessalonians 5:23).

Therapy is a journey and I strive to create a comfortable and safe space for my clients to experience that journey and grow throughout. Therapy is a partnership, between client and therapist, and should remain transparent, respectful and safe. Therapy is a space to be your true and unapologetic self and to feel support with no judgement. The foundation of my therapy practice is always person first. I am dedicated to provide clients with the skills and resources to promote healing and self-exploration. I encourage holistic treatment modalities and work intimately with my clients to learn coping techniques to apply in daily life.
