My focused approaches include: Acceptance Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Christian Faith-Based, Integrative, Narrative and Trauma-Informed
Sometimes, as you travel along the path of life, you encounter detours in the form of hurt, neglect, or loss that shift your direction and give you a false narrative about who you truly are. These detours may cause you to forget that you were always meant to thrive and not just survive in life. What if your path hasn't led to a dead-end but a new beginning? Would you be willing to explore unchartered territory that could lead to healing, acceptance, self-love, and empowerment?
