If you’re feeling stuck, anxious, or overwhelmed by life’s challenges, you’re not alone. I offer a warm, non-judgmental space to explore your emotions, strengthen relationships, and develop lasting coping tools. My approach blends evidence-based practices with psychodynamic insight to help uncover the roots of distress and foster self-understanding. For clients who wish, I also provide faith-based counseling to integrate spiritual growth and personal healing in a way that aligns with your beliefs and values.
I aim to empower you with the confidence, insight, and practical tools needed to reclaim your story and rediscover your resilience. Many people come to me feeling stuck—caught in people-pleasing, relationships that no longer serve them, or unsure of where life is headed. I offer a safe, compassionate space to help you explore what’s holding you back.
Exploring your inner world can feel intimidating, and finding the right therapist is a meaningful step. If anything here speaks to your heart, I encourage you to reach out. Taking that first step can lead to healing, peace, and renewed purpose. With faith and grace, growth is always possible. You are not alone—let’s begin this journey together.
