Great to meet you!

Wellness is inclusive of the mind body and spirit. Life and the many hats that we wear challenge our wellness. It can be difficult to navigate life without knowing how to properly identify what you are experiencing and feeling. Perhaps you are feeling “stuck” in life and don’t know how to get yourself back on kilter. My goal is to help bring into awareness traumas, feelings, and thoughts by acknowledging the influence of varying relationships and systems in your life so that you can heal.

A bit about my approach to therapy

As a licensed mental health therapist, I utilize CBT (Cognitive behavioral therapy), mindfulness and solution-focused therapy to help with the therapeutic process. I am also a Christian Counselor that uses the Bible as an effective tool and resource. Working together we can help you find your voice and liberation on this journey of wholeness and wellness.

What you can expect from our first session

I hope to foster a therapeutic relationship with my clients in a space where they can be free to feel, free to express, and free to be themselves. Change IS difficult, but necessary for growth. I believe this is attainable through empowerment, self-determination and accountability to help release you from people/things that no longer serve your best self.
