Sometimes we come to places in our lives when we don't know where to turn. At these times, we need someone to walk alongside us as we search. When I am invited to be that person, my role as your counselor is to provide a caring relationship of trust in which you can find healing and hope. I've heard it said, "It is in relationships that we become broken, and it is in relationships that we can find healing." Whether you are an individual, couple or family, I welcome the opportunity to walk alongside you - wherever you are in your journey.
As a Pastoral Counselor, I integrate the wisdom of faith and the insights of psychotherapy with each person whom I serve. While my own spirituality and faith are important to me, I do not impose them on others. I offer a place where each person can find wholeness in a compassionate, nonjudgmental relationship.
I would love the opportunity to hear your story. The invitation to participate in the next chapter of your life is a gift - to walk with you as you explore the innermost places of your heart. I consider it a privilege to be with you in the "ReCreation" of a new day in your life.
