About
New Birth Family Counseling is a Christ-centered, integrative group practice in Mission Valley, San Diego. We believe lasting healing touches the whole person: spirit, mind, and body. That’s why our care goes beyond traditional talk therapy, bringing together evidence-based counseling, mind-body medicine, and functional wellness to get to the root of what you’re carrying.
Our heart is for marriages and families. We offer private couples intensives for husbands and wives who are ready to rebuild trust, communication, and connection in a focused, restorative setting. We also provide individual, family, and child therapy (ages 5 and up), trauma-focused care including EMDR, and support for veterans and military families, led by a founder who is a Navy veteran herself.
Faith is welcome here, never forced. Each client chooses how much prayer, Scripture, and spiritual conversation they want in their care, and everyone is met with compassion and without judgment.
We see clients in person in San Diego and by telehealth throughout California. Functional wellness services are available nationwide. Reduced-fee therapy with our associate clinicians is also available for families who need a more affordable option. to walk alongside you on your journey toward healing and transformation.
Why I Became a Professional Christian Therapist
I became a Christian therapist because God has always provided for me and guided my own marriage. My husband and I have been married for 33 years and raised six children together, and I can tell you honestly that we did not make it this far on our own strength. There were seasons when love alone wasn’t enough, and it was prayer, forgiveness, and God’s grace that carried us through. I know what it means to fight for a marriage, and I know what it means to watch God restore what looked broken.
My own life has been a testimony of survival and new beginnings. From serving in the Navy on a submarine to earning my doctorates to building a practice from the ground up, I have seen God open doors no one else could open and make a way when I couldn’t see one. Every step taught me that healing isn’t only about the mind. It’s about the whole person, and the spirit matters.
I wanted to offer people what I wish more people had access to: clinical care that is excellent and grounded in research, from a therapist who also understands that faith is a source of strength, not something to leave at the door. I’ve seen too many believers feel they had to choose between their faith and getting real help. You don’t have to choose.
For me, this work is a calling. When a couple finds their way back to each other, or someone who has been carrying pain for years finally begins to heal, I see God at work. It’s an honor to walk alongside my clients in that process, and to share the same hope that has carried me.
