About me
Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or wishing you could reconnect with the joy you once felt in your relationships and life? Balancing a career, marriage, and family can be deeply challenging, especially with today’s pressures. As someone who’s been married to my best friend for 40 years while raising well-adjusted children, I understand how stressful these roles can be. Many couples find themselves worn down by the lack of support from their partner or children, and the financial and emotional demands of daily life. Together, we can work to ease this strain and help you find direction and fulfillment again.

My treatment methods
Christian Counseling
Biblical or Christian counseling is an approach to holistic soul care that is informed, bound, and shaped by the Scriptures, the authoritative Word of God. This form of counseling seeks to apply God’s truth to every area of life, particularly when someone is struggling with sin and the trials brought on by living in a fallen world. This is done by lovingly pointing counselees to repentance and faith in Jesus Christ, focusing on change rooted in a heart that longs to please the Lord, and providing practical instruction on how to live in a way that honors God in every circumstance.
Child Parent Psychotherapy
Therapeutic sessions include the child and parent or primary caregiver. The primary goal of CPP is to support and strengthen the relationship between a child and his or her caregiver as a vehicle for restoring the child's cognitive, behavioral, and social functioning.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) can be used to address a wide range of mental health conditions and personal challenges. It's particularly effective for anxiety, depression, eating disorders, substance use disorders, and problems related to sleep, relationships, and stress management. Essentially, if you're struggling with negative thought patterns or behaviors that are impacting your well-being, CBT can be a valuable tool.
Couples Counseling
Couples counseling can be beneficial at various stages of a relationship, not just when things are severely strained. If you're experiencing frequent arguments, difficulty communicating, a decline in intimacy, or feeling disconnected, it might be time to consider professional help. It can also be a proactive step to strengthen communication, manage stress, and navigate major life transitions together.
