I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) , a Pastoral Counselor, and an Ordained Minister. I truly have joy serving those who are in need of realignment in their daily lives. Genuinely reaching the heart of any challenges/trials in life opens the opportunity of building from the inside out. Working on our relationship, which will be built on being heard and developing solutions together, creates empowerment to conquer all.
My approach to serving involves using methods that create spiritual growth, character formation, strength, and courage to overcome challenges/trials of various kinds. By using Christian Psychology, this establishes a solid foundation that allows those being served to build themselves up with qualities that will assist in binding wounds through healing, increasing self-control, increasing self-worth, and increasing stability. Walking together in this process develops our relationship, which will develop your personal transformation of mind, heart, and spirit.
Serving children, youth, adolescents, families, youth in foster care, foster families, and individuals who have disruptions in their personal and/or family dynamics is my focus. Life challenges that develop an imbalance in mental, emotional, social, and psychological stability are conditions that can be treated by using various methods, which in turn, can increase quality of life.
When serving you and/or your family, I will always have an open ear that validates and acknowledges the challenges/trials you are experiencing. As I am able to keep a tone built on a non-judgmental approach and a level of comfort that opens the opportunity to “let it all out”, it will create the necessary and safe atmosphere for a positive outcome.
