Life is often challenging, and it’s not uncommon to feel stuck in unhelpful patterns. It takes courage to recognize the need for support and examine life more deeply.

As a licensed therapist, I am dedicated to helping individuals navigate the complexities of life and find healing from past and present pain. Your experiences, both positive and negative, have shaped who you are today, and I believe that by exploring these experiences in a safe and supportive environment, you can find a path towards greater peace and well-being.

Sometimes clients experience dysfunction in their families and continue to wrestle with the consequences of that in their present life. Sometimes transitions of the present like starting a family, empty nesting, or menopause can bring up pain from the past in a way that newly impacts daily functioning.

Regardless of what brought you here, my approach to therapy is warm, empathetic, and collaborative. I believe in recognizing your inherent strengths and working together to develop new skills and strategies for coping with life’s challenges. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, PTSD, integrating faith into your experience, relationship and boundary issues, or the impact of chronic illness, I am here to support you on your journey towards healing and growth.

My Christian faith informs my practice, but it’s always your choice whether or not to incorporate faith-based elements into your counseling. I am committed to providing a safe and welcoming space for all individuals, regardless of their beliefs.

I hold a Masters in Professional Counseling from Liberty University and I am trained in Eye Movement and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR) as well as other therapeutic modalities. I have a variety of experience in multiple settings including residential trauma treatment and private practice. I also enjoy training others in helping fields to better provide trauma-informed care.
