Introduction

Are you feeling anxious, stuck, or weighed down by challenges in your relationships, work, or faith journey? I’m a Licensed Graduate Social Worker (LGSW) and Certified Sex Offender Treatment Provider (CSOTP) who walks alongside individuals and families facing anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. My approach is compassionate, practical, and faith-sensitive—I respect the values you hold dear while helping you build healthier patterns and find hope. Many of my clients appreciate that I understand both the clinical side of mental health and the spiritual needs of Christians who want therapy that honors their beliefs.
