My journey to counseling
What led me to become a counselor? I find immense joy in witnessing people heal. My greatest reward comes from seeing individuals develop better communication skills, improve their parenting, and heal their relationship with food. It’s truly special to be a gentle (and sometimes firm!) guide during your most difficult times, helping you enjoy your partner again and heal your relationships with family and community.
My unique approach to therapy
What makes my counseling style unique? I am kind, yet direct; loving, but firm. I believe in active guidance, not just validation. I push when it's healthy and provide steady support through tough times and difficult decisions. Whether you're struggling with eating disorders, couples' issues, or seeking EMDR therapy, my goal is to create a safe space where you feel comfortable and deeply supported while actively working towards growth.
Witnessing transformation and hope
I’ve had the privilege of helping countless individuals through challenging times. One of the most rewarding experiences is helping someone become an intuitive eater, allowing them to enjoy meals out without shame or isolation. Helping couples and families find hope again after difficult periods is incredibly satisfying. With 8 years of experience, witnessing growth alongside my clients is a truly wonderful journey.
"Therapy does not have to be painful. You can learn to trust people again. Through faith and connection, we can find ways to cope."
