Walking alongside you on your journey
I started practicing therapy after my own therapeutic and spiritual journey.
Dealing with my own issues and trauma inspired me to want to help others as they walked through the difficulty and uncertainty that trauma and even every day life can bring. I found peace and wholeness through many modalities including CBT, mindfulness, meditation and prayer, and EMDR. EMDR helped transform my pain and helped me find wholeness. I became committed to being an EMDR trained therapist in addition to my training as a pastoral counselor. My hope for each client is to experience the abundant life that their Higher Power has for them. This may look different for each person based on their unique history and personhood. As a pastoral counselor, I address both the clinical as well as spiritual issues which often go hand in hand. I seek to walk alongside people on their journey to wholeness.
