About

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with over 20 years of experience, offering Biblically based Christian counseling to individuals, couples, and families. I believe that integrating faith with evidence-based therapeutic approaches leads to deep healing, growth, and lasting transformation.
My work is grounded in Biblical principles and supported by Attachment Theory and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I am nationally certified in CBT and also trained in Functional Family Therapy (FFT), Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT), and Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT). I hold a degree in Biblical Studies and intentionally integrate faith, prayer, and clinical excellence into my practice for clients who desire a Christ-centered approach.
I specialize in parenting support, strengthening couple relationships, and helping families navigate challenges. I also work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, women’s issues, grief and loss, postpartum anxiety and depression, and ADHD.
I work with clients across the lifespan—from children and adolescents to adults, couples, and older adults.

Why I Became a Professional Christian Therapist

My goal as a therapist is to provide a space where you feel safe to explore your experiences, deepen your faith, and experience the healing power of God’s love. I would be honored to walk alongside you on your journey toward healing, wholeness, and a stronger relationship with the Lord.
