Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session, my main priority is to get to know you and understand your unique experiences and concerns. We'll discuss the reasons that brought you here, your goals for therapy, and any specific challenges you're facing. It's a safe space for you to share as much or as little as you're comfortable with. I'll likely ask about your current life circumstances, and explore any patterns of thought or behavior that may be affecting your well-being. It's a collaborative process, so feel free to ask questions, express your expectations, or let me know if there's something specific you'd like to focus on.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
view myself as a visitor in the landscape of your life. You're the expert on your own journey, and I'm here to join you on a guided tour. Picture me as that inquisitive tourist who's always eager to pause and delve deeper into the intricacies of your experiences. I use metaphors to offer a fresh perspective, aiming to illuminate aspects that might not be immediately apparent. My approach is grounded in humility—I see us as equals on this exploration, fostering a seamless and open dialogue during our sessions. Together, we navigate the terrain of your thoughts and emotions, uncovering insights and fostering growth.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I'm here for everyone. Whether you're grappling with the complexities of life, facing personal challenges, or just need a space to explore your thoughts, I'm ready to lend a compassionate ear. My goal is to create a supportive environment for anyone seeking understanding and a path towards better mental well-being. Let's navigate the journey together, no matter who you are or what you're dealing with.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment
I am certified in this treatment method and have integrated it into my clinical practice with a variety of clients, particularly those experiencing trauma, anxiety, and relational difficulties. My experience has shown that it provides a structured yet flexible approach to helping individuals identify core issues, develop insight, and build practical coping strategies. I use this method to create a safe, client-centered space where healing can occur at a sustainable pace. Additionally, I am committed to ongoing professional development and continue to deepen my understanding through advanced training and supervision in order to enhance the quality and effectiveness of the care I provide.
Christian Counseling
I am certified in Christian counseling and have actively incorporated this approach into my clinical practice, especially when working with individuals seeking faith-based support for emotional and spiritual challenges. This method allows me to integrate biblical principles with evidence-based therapeutic techniques, creating a holistic framework that addresses the mind, body, and spirit. I use Christian counseling to help clients explore their struggles through the lens of Scripture, prayer, and spiritual formation, while also addressing psychological needs with clinical tools such as cognitive-behavioral strategies and trauma-informed care. I continue to deepen my understanding of this approach through ongoing study, theological reflection, and advanced training, ensuring that the care I offer remains both spiritually grounded and clinically effective.
