Jesus and Therapy

This is the work after deliverance—the sacred space where we begin to make sense of what you’ve walked through and unpack your experiences with both grace and understanding. As you grow in Christ, it’s essential to reclaim your spiritual, emotional, and psychological well-being. My goal is to help you integrate your healing through Jesus and therapy—working together to bring restoration to your mind, heart, and soul. Allow me to hear your wounds, and to help you give language to your experiences so we can connect the dots and move toward wholeness. In this space, you are invited to release shame and imagine a new narrative for your life—one rooted in redemption, peace, and hope.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with over nine years of experience helping individuals navigate life’s emotional challenges. I have supported clients through a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression, stress, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, life transitions, and trauma. I also have specialized experience working with mothers navigating postpartum depression, anxiety, and the emotional adjustments that come with pregnancy and early parenthood. My work has included providing therapy in homes, community settings, and virtually—meeting clients where they feel most supported.

I believe you are the expert of your own story, and your God-given strengths—whether fully realized or still emerging—can guide your healing journey. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in empathy, faith, and respect. Taking the first step toward therapy takes courage, and I commend you for choosing healing. You do not have to walk this road alone.

“Where there is no guidance, a people falls, but in an abundance of counselors there is safety.” — Proverbs 11:14

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
