I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 12 years of experience in counseling and direct case management. Most of my career has been spent with children and families in the midst of homelessness, foster care, and/or adoption, so I am no stranger to walking alongside others in their lowest valleys and on their highest mountains. I have also worked with many adults and couples as they navigate depression, grief and loss, anxiety, and relationship issues. With a background in psychology and a continued interest in the way that our brains impact our lives, I work with each unique client to untangle the white noise in their mind and achieve their goals.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

I want to get to know you and talk through realistic, helpful goals that make you feel excited about the future.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My background as a social worker has given me the honor to meet clients at rock bottom and help them to find strengths when all they see are weaknesses. I enjoy using a strengths-based approach with my therapy clients now, building on incremental goals with positivity and hope.

My treatment methods

Acceptance and commitment (ACT)

ACT allows us to focus on psychological flexibility. coping with difficult circumstances by embracing them instead of avoiding them.

Attachment-based

Attachment theory focuses on the role of early interactions between a child and their early caregivers. With attachment-based therapy, we can focus on building or rebuilding trusting, supportive relationships.

Christian Counseling

Christian counseling combines spirituality and spiritual principles with practical measures that talk therapy affords.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps reveal the relationship between beliefs, thoughts, feelings and behaviors. Recognizing those patterns can change your life.

Strength-Based

Strength-based therapy focuses on the positive attributes of a person or situation instead of dwelling on the negative.
