I know that therapy is a major investment of time, energy, and sometimes, finances, and that taking the step to start therapy can feel both hopeful and overwhelming. You might be navigating a difficult transition, feeling stuck in old patterns, or simply ready to invest in your own well-being. Whatever brings you to me, I work to make sure you know that this space is one of non-judgmental acceptance and deep empathy.
I specialize in helping with relationships, anxiety, stress, sex and intimacy. I also offer Christian counseling and have a heart for those who have experienced hurt or rejection from faith communities.
I utilize an eclectic, integrated approach to tailor therapy for each client's unique needs. Drawing from various proven modalities like CBT, ACT, and person-centered techniques, I create a flexible, evidence-based roadmap. This ensures clients get the most effective tools for their specific challenges, promoting lasting growth and well-being.
A core focus of my practice is couples therapy and pre-marital counseling. I'm passionate about helping couples build stronger connections. Leveraging my Gottman Method Level 2 training, I work with partners at any stage—whether you're facing significant struggles or simply looking for supportive guidance. I also offer specialized pre-marital therapy, with most of my clients experiencing positive improvements and increased confidence in their relationship within the first month. I focus on equipping clients with concrete, easily applicable tools that can be used every day to create greater personal clarity and healthier, more fulfilling relationships.
In addition to therapy services, I also offer life skills and counseling workshop facilitation, personal development coaching, and I'm available for speaking engagements.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
