Welcome! I consider counseling to be my calling and a way to serve individuals and couples in need of hope and a new direction. I take great care in assisting clients with processing their concerns and finding healthy tools to heal, repair broken relationships, and live a more meaningful life. I have a Master of Arts degree in Professional Counseling from Liberty University (graduated 2012) and am currently a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC).

I am passionate about my work and specialize in relationships in need of healthy communication, rebuilding trust, and recovery from relationship betrayal trauma or infidelity. I also offer Christian, faith-based counseling for clients seeking guidance in that context. My approach is person-centered, drawing from individual and family systems perspectives, and incorporates cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, boundaries, and mindfulness techniques.

I specialize in building healthy relationships using training from world-renowned experts, Dr. John and Julie Gottman, at The Gottman Institute in Seattle, WA, and their evidence-based relationship skill-building techniques. I also have experience supporting women, emotional struggles with IVF, empty nest syndrome, grief and loss, attachment disorders, codependency, career issues, life changes, adjustment disorders, and generalized anxiety and OCD.

Whatever brings you to therapy, I aim to be a safe and supportive place where you can find encouragement, personal strength, and practical life solutions. My goal is to create a therapeutic experience tailored to meet all of your personal and relationship needs.
