Introduction

Hello! As a counselor, my desire is to bring hope and healing through the truth found in God's Word. I draw on Scripture and clinical techniques that equip individuals not just with the coping skills they need, but with biblical truth from a well that never runs dry. I specialize in working with children ages 8+, adolescents, young adults, and older women walking through trauma, relationship issues, adult children of parents with personality disorders, depression, anxiety, complex PTSD, and more. In addition, I approach counseling through a holistic lens: physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. I would love to walk alongside you while encouraging you to look to the One, Jesus, who can bring healing and change into your life.
