About me

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience working with adults to overcome problems with mental, emotional, substance abuse, spiritual, and or relationship conflicts. I gained my therapy skills via work in an Inpatient, Residential, and Intensive Outpatient facility focused on helping individuals with severe psychiatric and chemical dependency issues. I am the owner/operator of His Strength Counseling, serving individuals seeking faith-based counseling. I am a certified therapist specializing in Trauma and Personality Disorders. I have experience facilitating and creating groups and counseling individuals and couples. My 5 years serving in the United States Army helped me become more disciplined and culturally competent, with the ability to participate in multi-disciplinary settings.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

The first sessions are to get to know each other and ensure we will be a good fit. We will discuss what has brought the client to therapy and clarify expectations from the therapeutic process. A clinical history will be obtained over the course of the first sessions.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I am a compassionate and active listener. My application of my education and training in Cognitive Behavioral, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and Trauma-based therapies has helped clients to improve emotional processing, gain insight, develop problem-solving and healthy communication skills, and come to terms with an abusive past.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

My ideal clients are adults aged 18 and up who have issues dealing with life stress, unresolved childhood trauma, and other issues, and are open to change and are willing to do their part in therapy. I strive to work collaboratively with clients, not as the expert in their lives but as a trusted, non-judgmental fellow guide.
