PhD, LPC, BCCC, ICC, CTP | Licensed Professional Counselor

Healing begins with courage, transformation begins with hope, and lasting change begins with taking the first step.

Life can leave us feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or uncertain about what comes next. Whether you're navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, or relationship difficulties, you deserve a safe, compassionate space where you can be heard, understood, and supported.

With over 10 years of counseling experience, I specialize in trauma and PTSD, anxiety, and relationship issues, helping individuals, couples, and families overcome emotional barriers, strengthen relationships, and rediscover their resilience.

My therapeutic approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), trauma-informed care, and strengths-based interventions tailored to each client's needs. As a Licensed Professional Counselor with a PhD in Christian Counseling and Psychology, I also provide faith-integrated counseling for those seeking to incorporate their spiritual beliefs into the healing process.

Your past does not define your future. Together, we can transform pain into growth, strengthen emotional wellness, and create pathways toward healing, restoration, and lasting change. I would be honored to walk alongside you.
