About
As human beings, we have inherent value, and we all have different needs and issues. Working collaboratively, our work will be tailored to fit your lifestyle and goals, making it individualized. This belief aids in cultivating positive and effective change in your life. My diverse background experiences in life, work, and education enable me to utilize various therapeutic interventions in all walks of life. We were not meant to live in isolation but to be in community together. When we walk together through life, this is when we are at our best, offering hope to those who may feel hopeless.
I am SYMBIS certified to counsel pre-marital couples. I am also trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), which aims to help people understand and accept complicated emotions/feelings. Before becoming a counselor, I had 20-plus years of teaching experience. After teaching, I was the Teen Mom Mentor Director for Young Life for two years.
Our bodies are adversely affected by stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma, which influence our relationships, occupations, and daily activities. I desire to come alongside you and support you as you learn to rise above your circumstances instead of living under your circumstances. It would be my privilege to walk this journey with you.
What sets us apart
With 20+ years' experience, I offer individualized therapy utilizing DBT and other interventions to help you overcome life's challenges. I specialize in premarital counseling (SYMBIS certified) and address the impact of stress, anxiety, and trauma on your well-being.
