Great to meet you!

I have been in the healing professions throughout my adult life, initially as a Registered Nurse, working in many different specialities (NICU, pediatrics, and Clinical Trials for Hepatitis C). I’m grateful for both careers and maintain an active interest in medicine and alternative healing. I practice Christian Counseling and my goal as a therapist is to meet you where you’re at and walk with you to a healthier, stronger place. For those of different faiths, I offer counseling oriented toward growth and healing, grounded in traditional values.

If you are experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, difficulty in relationships or other concerns, and you are looking for counseling from a Christian worldview and framework, I would be honored to speak with you.

I offer compassionate, supportive care where you’ll feel heard, valued, and encouraged in your journey of growth and healing. Member of the Focus on the Family Referral Network.

My approach to therapy

I offer a safe place to process difficulties and challenges, to receive support and compassion that is aligned with your faith and the chance to engage in a deeper understanding of life events and your personal journey. My approach is direct, warm and compassionate based in the truths of the Bible.

What you can expect from me

I am an attentive listener who is inquisitive about your journey. I look for the outlier details that point to deeper needs and desires. My Faith in Christ and love for God and Biblical truth, is the anchor of my practice. Together we will identify goals for the work done in therapy.
