New to Grow
Life can be heavy, but you don’t have to carry it alone. I believe therapy should be a place where you can take the mask off and be fully yourself. My clients often describe me as compassionate, relatable, and direct. I’ll celebrate your wins, sit with you through the hard moments, and lovingly challenge the patterns that may be keeping you stuck. My goal isn’t to tell you who to become, it’s to help you reconnect with the person you’ve always been beneath the pain, pressure, or self-doubt. Together, we’ll build on your strengths, develop practical tools, and create lasting change.
There is no pressure to have the “right” words or tell me your entire life story during our first session. We’ll start where you are. We’ll talk about what’s bringing you to therapy, what’s been feeling heavy, and what you hope will be different. My job isn’t to judge you, it’s to understand you. Together, we’ll begin identifying what’s working, what isn’t, and create a plan that fits your life. I want you to leave our first session feeling heard, understood, and hopeful that things can get better.
I bring warmth, honesty, and accountability. I’ll validate your feelings, but I won’t leave you there. Sometimes we need someone who can lovingly say, “I hear your pain…but let’s also look at what’s keeping you here.” I help clients recognize strengths they’ve overlooked, build healthier boundaries, quiet their inner critic, and develop practical tools they can use long after our sessions end. I believe healing isn’t about becoming someone else, but the person you envisioned yourself becoming.
My ideal client is someone who’s tired of carrying so much on their own. They may be struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, grief, burnout, relationship challenges, or a major life transition. Some have spent years putting everyone else first. Others are simply trying to make it through each day while feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from themselves. They don’t need to have everything figured out; they just need to be willing to show up. If you’re looking for a therapist who will listen with compassion, challenge you with care, and help you build practical tools for lasting change, we’ll likely be a good fit.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I help clients understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Together, we’ll identify patterns that may be contributing to stress, anxiety, depression, or low self-esteem and replace them with healthier ways of thinking and responding. My goal is to help you develop practical skills you can use long after therapy ends.
Christian Counseling
For clients who desire it, I integrate faith into therapy in a way that honors both biblical principles and evidence-based clinical practice. Your faith can be a source of healing, hope, and resilience, but I will never impose my beliefs. Whether we’re discussing prayer, Scripture, or spiritual struggles, we’ll incorporate your faith only if it’s meaningful to you.
Trauma-Focused CBT
Trauma can change the way we see ourselves, others, and the world around us. I help clients process difficult experiences at a pace that feels safe while learning healthy coping skills to reduce the emotional impact of trauma. Together, we’ll work toward healing without allowing your past to define your future.
Motivational Interviewing
Rather than telling you what to do, I help you discover your own motivation for change. We’ll explore what’s keeping you stuck, strengthen your confidence, and identify realistic steps toward the life you want.
