I'm genuinely excited to be a part of your journey toward healing, self-discovery, and personal growth! With over ten years of experience working with amazing individuals aged 13 and up, I've crafted a cozy, welcoming space where you can feel at ease sharing your thoughts and feelings - no judgment here! I work primarily with trauma, anxiety, and relationship issues like codependency; however, I am also skilled at working with a variety of issues.
People often tell me they appreciate my down-to-earth approach. I like to think of it as a blend of empathy and a little bit of tough love. I'm here to cheer you on while also keeping it real, helping you make meaningful strides toward your goals. And if you are interested, I love weaving in Christian principles as I guide Christians on their journey. No matter who you are, I will honor and respect your unique beliefs and values.
Your story matters and I can't wait to hear it!
On a personal note, I have been married to my husband for 15 years and we have two daughters, a cranky cat, fish, gecko, and frog. One thing I never thought I would be doing in my life? Buying crickets and mealworms every week, gross! When I'm not counseling (or buying crickets) I absolutely love playing games and being silly with my daughters and hubby, discovering new places, hiking mountains, developing fairy worlds, playing in the garden, and reading a good book.
