Trusting and sharing with another person the deepest, most vulnerable areas of our lives can be difficult. When that person is a Christian therapist, who believes that the Holy Spirit is guiding the therapy session, the experience can be more comfortable and re-assuring. Individuals can be assured that my strong Christian faith, Biblical knowledge and values mixed with my knowledge, experience and the scientifically proven methods of psychology I use, will deliver the trust, peace and effective results that the individual is seeking. In other words, individuals will experience the "best of both worlds" when they experience a counseling session in my office.

When providing Biblically based counseling, my approach is grounded in the timeless wisdom and teachings of the Scriptures. Recognizing that many individuals seek guidance that aligns with their faith, I integrate biblical principles with therapeutic practices to offer a holistic healing path. Clients benefit from a perspective that merges spiritual growth with emotional well-being. By exploring challenges through the lens of scripture, individuals are empowered to find solace, strength, and direction, drawing closer to their spiritual beliefs while also achieving mental and emotional harmony. This fusion of faith and counseling offers a comprehensive healing journey, anchored in both spirit

Christian counseling involves incorporating one's spiritual beliefs along with the treatment modalities implemented to manage the presenting problem. This can involve helping to resolve feelings of guilt and shame that can get in the way of making one feel hopeless or feeling as though they are being punished. It also means finding the best treatment modalities that are not in conflict with spiritual and/or Christian beliefs.

Seeking support can be feel vulnerable, life can feel like there's no catching a break at times- I get it! But rest assured God did not intend we go through battles and challenges alone. As a Christian therapist, I believe the Bible is the infallible word of God and integrate therapy from a biblical world view. We will look at scripture for reference and offer insights into areas of growth, barriers and identify challnges to growth and change. I also integrate evidence based interventions that enrich our work as an integrative approach. Call or email today to get started.

Faith and spirituality can provide comfort and meaning to those guided by their beliefs. I was raised in a Christian household myself so I have an appreciation for the values instilled by religion, the importance of tradition, and the strength of community. My approach to counseling is humanistic and welcoming of all spiritualities. Though I do not incorporate any specific pastoral counsel, I encourage my spiritual clients to draw on their beliefs during the counseling process.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, we learn about the important role of religion and spirituality in the lives of our clients. I treat clients of all faiths and backgrounds, and I do not specialize in one particular faith. Instead I am open to my clients teaching me about their beliefs and the important role that faith plays in their life. From the very first session I will ask about your religious practices, if there is a faith community that is important to you, as well as to determine if there is room for growth in this area. Some people find their closest friends and family at faith communities, so having a therapist that understands is a vital piece of each therapy experience.

I've been following Jesus for over 30 years. I'm not about Bible-bashing or quoting Scripture you already know ("Be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to anger.") with the belief you should just be able to do it because it's in the Bible - if you *really* love God. But instead I show my clients how they can live out what God and the Bible have to say about their life and relationships in realistic ways that you can actually do. My clients learn to personally experience the love, grace, mercy, gentleness, self-control, kindness, compassion, peace, and forgiveness, the Bible promises - and how to offer these experiences in their relationships with others.

Our deepest wounds are often those that are at the hands of another person. Human brokenness is the root of our need for redemption. This holds true in therapy and growth work as well. When we encounter our deep wounds, we encounter our need for our Big God. Here, we are able to reconcile the broken our hurt parts of our ourselves.
