Great to meet you!

I provide individual and couples counseling exclusively through telehealth, helping clients manage anxiety, stress, and life transitions while also addressing communication, trust, and relationship challenges. Insurance may cover services that meet your plan’s requirements; counseling focused primarily on relationship concerns may require private pay. We’ll discuss your needs, payment options, and fees before beginning services.


My professional background combines individual, family, and couples therapy, with attention to each client’s emotional well-being, relationships, and life circumstances.


For clients who desire it, I also offer a biblically based, psychologically and therapeutically validated approach, thoughtfully integrating faith with evidence-based clinical care.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is directive, structured, relational, and goal-oriented, while remaining emotionally grounded and collaborative. Being directive means I actively guide sessions, help name patterns, and keep therapy focused—especially when clients feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward.

I help clients slow down, organize their thoughts and emotions, and develop practical strategies they can apply outside of session. Therapy is not passive or unstructured; it is intentional and designed to support clarity, emotional regulation, and meaningful change.

I integrate evidence-based approaches including:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
  • Attachment-based and emotionally focused therapy
  • Gottman-informed couples therapy
  • Emotional regulation and distress tolerance skills

When appropriate, I provide clear feedback, structured exercises, and between-session focus areas, while still respecting each client’s pace, autonomy, and goals.

What you can expect from me

I work as a client-centered, directive focused therapist. That means therapy is guided by your goals, values, and pace, while I actively provide structure, direction, and clinical guidance to keep sessions focused and productive.

Being client-centered means you are respected as the expert on your own life. Your concerns, priorities, and boundaries shape the work we do. Being directive means I help organize the process—asking focused questions, identifying patterns, offering feedback, and suggesting tools or next steps when helpful.

This approach works especially well for clients who:

  • Feel overwhelmed or unsure where to start
  • Want therapy that is supportive and practical
  • Prefer clear guidance rather than open-ended sessions
  • Appreciate honest reflection paired with compassion

Sessions are collaborative, intentional, and grounded in evidence-based care. You won’t be pushed or rushed—but you also won’t be left without direction.
