The most important parts of mental wellness are the ability to increase one’s self-awareness and broaden one’s perspective. As your counselor, I will provide a safe and judgment free environment for you to gain a better understanding of whatever issues you are dealing with as an individual, couple, or in any other types of romantic relationships. The main goal of most clients is "to feel better," and I am here to help you make that goal more specific so that you can grow in the areas most important to you. I also strive to destigmatize counseling for men, Black / African-Americans, and other minority groups.

你是否感觉自己被困在过去的阴影中? 或许你内心总有一种挥之不去的焦虑或沉重感,却在现实生活中找不到明确的原因。又或者,你发现自己不断重复着痛苦的人际关系模式,或者在尝试与家人建立界限时,总是被强烈的罪恶感所吞噬。

There are so many people who believe they are defective or fear rejection if they talk about their struggles. One of the first things I ask people about is what they need to feel safe. Vulnerability is not a skill we've all been taught, but a huge ingredient in the healing process! I aim to work at a gentle/appropriate pace and tailor therapy to YOU. On top of that, I will regularly check-in on how you perceive your progress/time in therapy. If you are someone who is curious and eager (or simply just fed up with where you're at!), feel free to reach out. All are welcome in my space no matter their stories.

You’re the one everyone relies on—at work, in relationships, and in your family. You take care of others, think about their feelings, and try not to disappoint anyone. But inside, you feel overwhelmed, emotionally tired, and unsure of what you even need anymore. You may feel guilty for wanting more rest, space, or support. You overthink decisions, second-guess yourself, and feel pressure to “get it right.” You’re exhausted from holding everything together and want relief that actually lasts—not just another way to cope.

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.
