About
You may be the person everyone counts on, yet privately feel exhausted, overwhelmed, or like you are never doing enough. Perhaps you have built a successful career and are there for the people you love, but struggle to give yourself the same care and compassion you extend to others. You may find yourself caught in perfectionism, overthinking, or recurring relationship patterns that leave you feeling disconnected or unfulfilled. Maybe you are navigating burnout, family expectations, perimenopause, or questions about who you are and what God is calling you toward in this season of life. You want more than help managing stress. You want to understand yourself more deeply, experience meaningful change, and live with greater peace, purpose, and authenticity.
My approach to therapy is grounded in Christian faith, compassion, and a belief in the inherent worth and dignity of every person. I believe God meets us in our struggles, questions, relationships, and growth, not only in our moments of strength. Therapy can be a place to bring your whole self, including the parts that feel uncertain, conflicted, or difficult to understand. You do not have to have everything figured out or hold everything together. Together, we can explore your experiences with honesty and curiosity while making room for your faith, values, and spiritual journey.
I offer relational, depth-oriented therapy informed by psychodynamic principles for individuals who want to understand the underlying patterns that shape their lives. Our work may include exploring how childhood experiences, family dynamics, relationships, and internal expectations influence how you see yourself and relate to others today. We can examine why perfectionism and overachievement may feel necessary, why setting boundaries can bring guilt, or why you may continue to prioritize others while neglecting your own needs. Through this process, you can develop greater self-understanding, strengthen relationships, and begin making choices that reflect who you are rather than who you feel you must be.
I particularly enjoy working with high-achieving professionals who are navigating burnout, chronic stress, perfectionism, and the pressure to meet competing demands at work and home. I also support individuals experiencing relationship difficulties, family-of-origin concerns, and the emotional complexities of perimenopause and midlife transitions. These seasons can invite important questions about identity, purpose, priorities, and what it means to care for yourself while continuing to care for others. Together, we can explore how your faith can serve as a source of meaning and support as you navigate change and discern what you need in this next chapter.
Another area of focus is working with bicultural and multicultural individuals who may feel caught between cultural expectations, family obligations, faith traditions, and their own developing sense of identity. You may feel torn between honoring your family and cultural roots and making choices that feel authentic to you. You may also be navigating the intersection of faith, culture, relationships, and belonging. I offer space to explore these complexities with respect and curiosity, recognizing that culture, family, and spirituality can be sources of both strength and struggle.
My Christian faith informs my commitment to approaching each person with grace, compassion, and respect. I believe healing involves being able to acknowledge our struggles without shame, understand ourselves with greater compassion, and recognize that our worth is not dependent on achievement, productivity, or meeting everyone else's expectations. For clients who desire it, I welcome the integration of spiritual reflection, or other faith-based practices into therapy in ways that align with their personal beliefs and preferences. Whether you are wrestling with questions about God, navigating difficult relationships, or seeking to reconnect with your faith, we can make spa
My Christian Faith and My Professional Practice
I believe therapy is a place where you can come as you are and be fully seen, without judgment, and cared for with the love of Christ. In my practice, I walk alongside individuals who feel weighed down by anxiety, family pressures, self-doubt, or the pain of difficult relationships. My approach is both professional and faith-rooted, creating a safe space where healing and transformation can happen. I am passionate about helping clients uncover their God-given worth, heal from past wounds, and find balance, peace, and renewed confidence in who God has called them to be.
