New to Grow
I am a wife, mother, and woman of faith who is passionate about helping women navigate the many challenges life can bring. As the spouse of an Air Force service member for 22 years, I had the opportunity to live in many places around the world, giving me a deep appreciation for resilience, change, and the unique experiences that shape each person's story. Today, I proudly call San Antonio, Texas home and feel honored to serve women of faith across the state. I believe therapy should be a place where you feel safe, heard, and encouraged. Whether you're facing a difficult season, adjusting to life's changes, or simply looking for support and guidance, I strive to create a compassionate environment where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and goals without judgment. Together, we'll build on your strengths, deepen your understanding of yourself, and work toward meaningful, lasting growth while honoring your personal values and faith.
My goal is to provide a warm and welcoming space where you can feel comfortable being yourself. During our first session, we'll spend time getting to know one another and talking about what has brought you to therapy. We'll explore your goals, discuss what you hope to gain from our work together, and begin creating a plan that feels right for you. I want our conversation to feel natural rather than clinical. There is no pressure to share everything at once—we'll move at a pace that feels comfortable for you. Before we finish, we'll discuss a recommended session frequency and schedule our next appointment.
One of my greatest strengths is helping clients recognize the strengths they already possess, even when they may be difficult to see. I enjoy helping women shift unhelpful perspectives, build confidence, and approach life's challenges with greater resilience. For clients who desire it, I also incorporate a Christian worldview into therapy in a way that aligns with their personal beliefs and values. My goal is to help you develop greater self-esteem, strengthen your faith, and create positive, lasting change that supports your overall well-being.
I am especially passionate about working with women of faith who are seeking encouragement, healing, and personal growth. I understand that life can bring seasons of uncertainty, change, and emotional challenges, and I believe no one should have to navigate those experiences alone. My background as a military spouse also gives me a unique understanding of the transitions, demands, and sacrifices that military families often experience. If you're looking for a compassionate therapist who will meet you with warmth, respect, and faith-based support, I would be honored to walk alongside you as you pursue healing and hope.
I am a board certified Christian Counselor, through National Association of Christian Counseling. I believe faith is the best compass for navigating most of life‘s issues. I work from a Christian world view to help clients improve perspective, find purpose and empowerment, leading to peace in everyday life. All of the therapeutic approaches I use are well aligned with Christian vowels.
I have been using ACT as one of my main therapeutic approaches for three years. I use this method to help clients identify, navigate, and accept difficult thoughts and emotions. With this knowledge I help create a plan to minimize discomfort from intrusive thoughts, and strong emotions, so clients establish a sense of well-being and empowerment.
CBT is a wonderful Therapy to help clients understand the relationship between thoughts, emotions and behaviors. With this knowledge, I help clients develop strategies to address intrusive thoughts, so they have better control over emotions and behaviors.
Positive psychology focuses on a client’s strengths, rather than a client’s faults. Identifying and using one’s strengths helps move clients to a positive perspective on their abilities. This shift of focus, helps clients, overcome barriers, and improve problem-solving. These skills can be used in all aspects of life’s journey.
Counseling should incorporate the whole person. Understanding the impact of environment, sleep, nutrition, and relationships on emotions can help clients improve mood and perspective, creating lasting positive change.
