Healing Hurt Women and Broken Marriages

As a licensed counselor operating with a Christian worldview, my goal is to integrate the lives of my clients with truth, beauty, and goodness. Utilizing empirically proven strategies and traditional biblical wisdom, we uncover the divine meaning in clients’ lives, bring harmony to their fundamental relationships, and lay the groundwork for renewed flourishing. I primarily serve women in difficult, disappointing, or destructive marriages who struggle with confidence, boundaries, trust, or perfectionism, and I serve couples who want a more Christ-centered marriage in which both husband and wife support, serve, and sacrifice for the other.

In our sessions together, expect a non-judgmental, welcoming space where you can share the burdens you are carrying. I believe that you are the expert in your own life, and my role is to offer different perspectives, challenge your thinking, and guide the conversation in ways that allow you to pull clarity out of confusion and courage out of helplessness.

During our first session, we will explore your backstory to better understand where you are now, zero in on the presenting problem, and determine if we are a good fit. All of our time together will be focused and outcome-driven but you will control the pace. You can expect to grow in your understanding of self and others, break dysfunctional patterns, learn to love and be loved honestly and deeply, and reclaim peace.
