I am deeply passionate about helping clients navigate life’s challenges from anxiety, depression, ADHD symptoms, social and emotional concerns, to everyday stressors. It can be overwhelming to navigate your mental health alone and my goal is to provide a space where you feel seen, supported, and understood from the very first session. I enjoy working with a variety of clients from teens to older adults. I bring a deep psychology background to my work and enjoy utilizing a variety of interventions in practice.

Working with Christian women who are burnt out, overwhelmed and anxious is a passion of mine.
Tired? Overwhelmed? Anxious? Feeling like you don't measure up? Worried God can't use you? My approach to treating women with anxiety is to dive into your story and help you identify where it all started. Stressful childhood, lots of pressure, peer rejections, and empathy for the woes of the world will lead to anxiety. Maybe your upbringing lead to unhealthy ways of thinking, or rejection lead to beating yourself up. Better understanding your story and your internal dialogue will loosen the grip of anxiety and overwhelm. Understanding how your brain works allows for few changes to your thinking and your routine to help you thrive.

Autism (ASD), ADHD, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), anxiety, and couples counseling are my jam, but I can also help with other concerns listed below. Many individuals hide parts of themselves that they feel others will not accept. This could include appearance, thoughts, feelings, emotions, actions, and behaviors. Experiences shape perceptions which create worldviews and sometimes navigation can be difficult. Life (usually) doesn't come with a GPS system and if you feel like your nervous system might implode, you are not alone.

Hi there! I am so glad that you are here and considering therapy. As someone who was raised in a culture where mental health was not widely discussed, I understand firsthand the power of being able to openly share your thoughts without fear of judgment or scrutiny. With that being said, I also understand how intimidating it can be to attend therapy, especially for the first time. My goal as a therapist is to meet my clients where they are and create a safe and warm environment in which my clients can explore their authentic selves.

My approach is a great fit for teens and women who want to have a place where they can be completely real, to unpack whatever they need to, and feel accepted by someone who truly believes things will get better. Many of my Clients have lived through serious betrayal and felt confused, absent, or unhinged by what happened. Then they come to therapy because they’ve been living “at a 10” and want hope that they don’t have to be this mad, this triggered, or this impacted anymore. I help Clients understand why this is happening and how to move forward in a way that feels strong and sure.

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.
