First session
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.
Strengths
With over 2 decades of experience I offer highly practical, evidence-based care, with the unique ability to seamlessly integrate deep biblical wisdom and spiritual restoration for clients who desire a faith-forward approach to their healing- and for those who do not want a faith based approach- I offer a truly comprehensive roadmap to recovery. Because trauma alters both brain chemistry and gut health, my strength is delivering integrated care—combining psychological boundary-building, nervous system regulation, and targeted nutritional recovery.
Ideal clients
I love working with women who are trying to overcome Narcissistic abuse. My clients are eager to improve but don't yet have the tools needed to make this goal a reality. They often feel stuck, overwhelmed, and anxious about making decisions, suffer from low self-esteem and self-worth, and have core wounds that were created during childhood by people who were meant to provide love, protection, and guidance towards being a healthy individual.
