With almost 10 years of service in both clinical settings and private practice, I bring a compassionate, client-centered approach to therapy. I believe in the power of a supportive therapeutic relationship. My approach is comprehensive, combining evidence-based practices with a personalized touch to meet each client's unique needs. I specialize in a variety of therapeutic modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Christian Counseling, and mindfulness-based techniques. My goal is to offer a brave space that empowers you to build resilience, gain personal insights, and develop practical strategies for life's challenges. My areas of expertise are Stress Management, Anxiety and Depression, Relationship Issues, Life Transitions, Self-Esteem and Personal Growth.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our sessions, you'll find a nurturing environment where you can freely express yourself without fear of judgment. I prioritize active listening, ensuring your voice is heard and your experiences validated. Through compassionate feedback, I offer insights and perspectives to help you gain clarity and understanding. Together, we'll embark on a journey of collaborative goal-setting, tailoring our approach to meet your unique needs and aspirations. With dedication and support, we'll work hand-in-hand to navigate challenges and celebrate achievements, ultimately fostering growth and enhancing your emotional and behavioral well-being.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Drawing from diverse experiences in both inpatient and outpatient hospital mental health settings, I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to enrich our sessions. Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of working with individuals from various backgrounds and with a wide range of mental health concerns. These experiences have allowed me to witness firsthand the complexities of the human mind and the resilience of the human spirit. As a psychotherapist, I have honed my skills in creating a supportive and nurturing space for my clients. I understand the importance of building a strong therapeutic alliance based on trust, empathy, and mutual respect. I believe that the foundation of effective therapy lies in providing an environment where you can feel brave, strong, and courageous to discuss those uncomfortable issues, expressing your thoughts, feelings, and concerns without fear of judgment. Listening deeply is at the core of my therapeutic approach. I understand that each person's story is unique and deserves to be heard by a genuine, empathy and compassion audience. By actively listening to your experiences, I strive to gain a deeper understanding of your hurt and pain, doubts and ambitions, strengths, and goals. Together, we will explore the root causes of your challenges and uncover the patterns that may be holding you back from living a fulfilling life. Collaboration is key to our work together. I view therapy as a partnership where we work as a team to identify practical solutions that are tailored to your specific needs and circumstances. Rather than offering quick fixes or one-size-fits-all advice, I believe in empowering you to become an active participant in your own healing journey. By working together to develop personalized strategies and goals, you will gain the tools and insights needed to overcome obstacles and create positive change in your life beyond the therapeutic environment. Let's embark on this journey together, igniting hope and pursuing your dreams. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or life transitions, know that you don't have to face your challenges alone. With my support and guidance, you will have the opportunity to explore new perspectives, develop coping skills, and cultivate resilience in the face of adversity. Therapy is a transformative process that has the potential to bring about profound growth and healing. It's about more than just alleviating symptoms; it's about r

VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with Christian-based principles as the cornerstone of my therapeutic approach. My faith informs my practice by providing a compassionate, values-driven framework that respects and uplifts each individual's spiritual journey. CBT, a well-researched, evidence-based modality, focuses on identifying and challenging the underlying reasons behind our behaviors. It empowers clients to become introspective about their choices, helping them develop healthier responses to life’s challenges.
Christian Counseling
By combining faith with practical therapeutic techniques, I offer a unique approach that considers spiritual well-being as an integral part of mental wellness. This includes faith-based reflection, scriptural support, prayer and meditation, and values-based guidance, leading to improved overall well-being, more effective coping strategies, and a deeper sense of peace and fulfillment.
