Ohio-licensed therapist with over 30 years of clinical experience helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, stress, ADHD, relationship strain, life transitions, and identity shifts.
I specialize in working with Christian women who want both psychological depth and faith-sensitive care. When requested, I thoughtfully integrate Biblical wisdom alongside evidence-based approaches such as CBT and DBT.
My style is direct, structured, and compassionate. I help clients identify patterns quickly, build practical tools, strengthen emotional regulation, and create sustainable change through clearer boundaries and steady self-leadership.
Clients often describe me as grounded, honest, and solutions-oriented. I will listen carefully, challenge you where growth is needed, and support you in moving forward with clarity and resilience.
If you’re ready to move from feeling overwhelmed or stuck into a more stable, intentional, and healthy life — I’m here to help you build that path.
