I am a Christian Professional Counselor and work for a private Christian practice.
I specialize in helping people of all ages and backgrounds experiencing imbalance in their personal, family, or professional life. I match my skills with your needs, wants and expectations. Together, we identify patterns in your life that no longer serve you and create a plan to help you accomplish what is most important to you. While we may process the past, we focus on practicing new, more effective behaviors. I believe therapy is a collaborative process that I, as your therapist, can meet you where you are to help you, your child, your teen, your partner, and/or your family navigate through together.

After many years working with individual adults, families, couples, co-parents, children and teens, I have settled into a therapy practice on the island of working exclusively with individual women and teen girls. I prefer in-person meetings (walking on the beach is my office space), although I still do a limited amount of therapy with men and women via Zoom. A good client fit for me is anyone who is struggling in her personal relationships with a partner, friend, or family member, as well as parenting issues and work- or school-related stress.

Becoming a therapist was never on my list of 'things I want to be when I grow up.' It wasn’t until I needed to sit down and talk to someone that I realized what I truly wanted to do with my life. As a naturally empathetic person, I wanted to learn how to help people heal emotionally and mentally. At NOCD, my team and I provide personalized and effective specialized treatment for OCD and related conditions, such as BFRBs (including skin-picking, nail-biting, and hair-pulling). Our understanding of the nuances of these conditions enables us to diagnose and treat them properly.

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.
