I'm a therapist with experience supporting individuals and families through life's most meaningful transitions. My work focuses on relationship dynamics, family conflicts, grief and loss, and parenting challenges. I believe that relationships are at the heart of our wellbeing, and I'm committed to helping you navigate the complexities that arise within them.
I approach therapy with warmth, respect, and a genuine desire to understand your unique situation. My goal is to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your concerns and discover new ways forward. Whether you're working through conflict with a loved one, processing grief, or seeking support as a parent, I'm here to walk alongside you with compassion and care.
I draw on evidence-based therapeutic practices to help you build stronger connections, resolve conflicts, and find meaning during difficult times. Taking the first step toward therapy takes courage, and I'm honored to support you on your journey.
I offer Christian counseling.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
