In hopes that I would feel less like a stranger to you, here’s a little bit about me:
I have been a licensed counselor for well over a decade now and fully licensed since 2018. My dad was a Pastor for over 30 years and I can remember from a young age wanting to help him with the difficult counseling stories he would encounter. When I started my counseling courses in graduate school, and felt like I found what God had crafted me for.
At the age of 23, I married Ben, who was headed into church ministry. We have been able to celebrate 16 years of a beautiful journey together, filled with ups and downs, the sweet and the bitter. After an early miscarriage of our first child, God blessed us with 4 beautiful boys. I like to say that parenting has made me a better counselor and counseling a better parent. Either way, I have learned I owe my parents a huge “Thank you,” because parenting is way harder that I ever expected and also one of God’s greatest tools for growth in my life. I have learned that ministry happens both inside and outside of our home, and integrity is key to having joy in it all.
A unique and divinely intentional aspect of my story is my journey living with a genetic disease. From the age of 20 God started helping me to develop a theology of suffering as I learned to live with the brokenness of my body, and at times in my spirit. This is one of the tools God has used to help me relate to the pain and suffering of others, both physically and emotionally. Because of our Hope in Christ Jesus Himself, we can have both Peace and Joy in the midst of the hard. In the middle of the story, when the waves are throwing us around, and when up is indistinguishable from down, we can lock eyes with Christ, trusting that He indeed is who He says he is. He will lead us. He will never leave us. And He will bring us, by his strength, to the finish line.
I love being able to use the counseling room to help women embody their faith. My primary theory I use is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, because it is what I use in my own life. When helpful. I color that theory with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Transactional Analysis, and some Solution Focused Skills. My goal is to provide the roadmap for you to continue to grow into the woman that God has crafted you to be, inside your home, your ministry, and your workplace. May we experience more joy and peace as we journey towards Christ together.

Understand your story. Build the tools to live meaningfully.
As a licensed social worker with a neuroscience background, I use a practical and grounded approach that emphasizes compassionate understanding of your story. We'll explore what's keeping you stuck, and help you move from:
confusion to clarity,
from anxiety to peace,
and from shame and isolation to connection and belonging.
The most transformative moments in my life have been when others saw me at my worst and still offered compassion, respect, and belief in me. That is the kind of presence I want to offer you.
With honesty and compassion, we'll create a place where you can be known and connected while we unpack your story and equip you with the tools you need to create confident and meaningful movement in the places you feel stuck. Therapy can be a big commitment of your time, emotions, & energy, so we'll use a mix of evidence-based approaches drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, & trauma-informed approaches. My desire is to help you diminish the power of fear, anxiety and self-doubt in your own life so you can be better equipped to live in a way that reflects who you want to be.
If requested, we will interweave a Christian worldview into this work, infusing evidence-based techniques with a foundation informed by Scripture.
Outside therapy, you'll find me wandering a music festival with my musician husband, spending time with my son, reading a good book, or trying my hand at some kind of art or craft, practices that keep me creative & connected to what's beautiful & good in the world.
I'd be honored to journey with you as you cultivate the beautiful and good in your story.
