Therapy to me is about being seen and supported, not “fixed.” I bring humor, transparency, and humanness into every session, because healing happens in real relationships. I’ve spent nearly a decade helping people move through life like anxiety, depression, trauma, family conflict, and life transitions. I’m also a combat veteran which has shaped both my resilience and my passion for walking alongside others who feel overwhelmed, unseen, or stretched too thin.

You’ve tried therapy before—sat on the couch re-telling your story again & again. You’ve read the self-help books & checked all the “boxes,” yet you still find yourself struggling with the impact of your past, stress, disconnection, & can’t seem to find a pathway to joy. You’re ready to try something different, but you’re a little nervous to try again. If this is you, you’re in the right place, and I’m so encouraged that you are here!

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor working with clients in their early 20s to late 50s. Clients often come to their first session feeling stuck and uncertain about how to attain the life they want. Relationships and career stressors contribute to anxiety, leaving them confused about how to move forward. In therapy, I work with clients to value themselves, tune into their desires and dreams, and move in that direction. The first step toward change is often learning to treat ourselves with the same love and care we would show to a valued friend.

I love working as a mental health counselor so much that I do it in English, Spanish, and even Spanglish. Becoming a counselor is rooted in my desire to destigmatize therapy and make it feel accessible and normal. I consider it a privilege when clients choose me to walk alongside them. I bring dedication, care, and respect to every session because every person deserves to feel seen. If you decide to work with me, we will learn how to get back to imperfect joi (yes, that is an i). I have licenses in VA, MA, PA, and UT ONLY. You will need to be located in those states to work together.

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.
