Introduction

Life changes. People change. Relationships change. And change isn’t easy. For over a decade I’ve walked alongside adults and couples navigating anxiety, conflict, and major life transitions. Whether you’re feeling stuck personally or disconnected in your relationship, I can help you understand how your story has shaped you, gently untangle patterns that no longer serve you, and build a steadier, more confident way forward. As a Licensed Counselor and Spiritual Director, I use evidence-based therapies such as EMDR, CBT, and IFS. For clients who desire it, I provide a safe space to integrate their Christian faith into the process.
