I have worked in the mental health field for over 20 years and been a licensed counselor for over 14 years. I am a Christian and believe enjoy bringing God's word into my counseling practice. I understand that everyone is at a different place with faith. I am willing to meet you at whatever level of faith you are at from questioning your faith to strong belief.
I believe in an eclectic approach. I am certified in EMDR for trauma, specially trained in DBT and CBT for depression, anxiety and other mood disorders, and Gottman Method for couples counseling. I like to meet you where you're at, but I also believe in challenging you with work outside of session to improve your coping skills.
I try to create a warm accepting environment where we can build rapport. I believe that clients don't care what you know until they know you care. I believe in a partnership, you are the expert in you, and I have the expertise in counseling and together (hopefully with God included) we can work to give you the abundant life you are craving.
