Let me help you. I specialize in Faith Based, CBT, Solution focused, Strength based therapy, and provide a safe space for people to receive the care they need. I’ve always been passionate about helping others solve their problems, so when I decided to pursue therapy, I knew I had discovered my purpose.

It takes work but I will be there to assist you towards living the life you desire and deserve.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I believe that many of the issues within start in the mind with our thoughts. Negative thoughts have a way of consuming the mind, and I assist with thought reframing techniques to improve your quality of life by helping you to change the way you think about your problems.

Faith based therapy

In using faith based therapy, I help client lean into their faith as a way of coping with problems that could possibly cause them to question their faith.

With this being my first time EVER talking to a therapist I felt so seen and heard throughout our session. What I’ve appreciated most—beyond her professional guidance—is the genuine human connection we’ve shared. I enjoyed that we were able to laugh together; those lighthearted breaks felt just as healing as the deeper, more challenging conversations. I’m thankful for her kindness, her patience, and for creating a space where I felt comfortable being my authentic self.
