I am passionate about serving others by integrating the best mental health practices. I offer spiritual care if requested. As a Licensed Counselor supervisor, Licensed Substance Abuse Counselor and a Minister. I provide care to anyone who wants to grow in person and through HIPPA secure teletherapy. I address a range of mental health concerns, life transitions, relationship issues, and trauma and can integrate clinical counseling and theology. I combine research based psychology with a Christian perspective of suffering, hope, and redemptive love on request. EMDR, Gottman, EFT, ACT and narrative therapy are methods I practice.
I am commited to excellence and personal integrity to help you experience life as it was designed to be. I welcome people of all belief-systems or those who prefer not to express any religious practices. A non-judgmental, safe environment where hope and healing can begin is my desire to meet each client’s needs.
I look forward to connecting with you and seeing how I can help you build a life of increasing value and worth.

My approach is integrative. I draw from ACT, CBT, EFT, Narrative Therapy, addiction and recovery and Gottman Methods primarily. I also facilitate EMDR and enjoy the success I see with healing with this and am proud to be part of many people's journey to wellbeing and a life they enjoy. My hope is each person finds more resources and joy than they already have.
