I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado Springs and Pueblo, Colorado. I earned my master’s degree from Troy University and a doctoral degree from Newburgh Theological Seminary and College of the Bible. With 20 years of experience, I help adults, couples, children, and adolescents develop coping skills to manage emotional and mental health challenges, including family stress and relationship concerns.

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

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions and then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

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

Here’s a refined version of your statement: **"I am a compassionate and patient-therapist committed to meeting clients where they are. I provide a safe environment that encourages the processing of emotions while focusing on each individual's psychological and spiritual needs."** How does that sound? Would you like to adjust anything further?

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I love working with adults, families, couples, and adolescents who believe that change is possible. They are ready to make a change and, more importantly, willing to take the necessary steps to achieve change.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

CBT is a structured, evidence-based approach that helps us understand how our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected. One of the key principles of CBT is recognizing how negative thoughts can impact our emotions and actions.

EMDR

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a structured, evidence-based therapy designed to help people process and heal from traumatic experiences. It’s different from traditional talk therapy because it focuses on the way our brain stores and processes memories, especially those linked to trauma.

Christian Counseling

Christian counseling combines clinical techniques (such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, or other evidence-based methods) with biblical wisdom to help you navigate life’s challenges.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

Mindfulness-Based Therapy is an approach that integrates mindfulness practices—such as meditation, breathing exercises, and body awareness—into traditional therapeutic techniques. The goal is to help individuals become more aware of their present thoughts, feelings, and bodily sensations in a non-judgmental way, fostering greater self-awareness and emotional regulation.
