work with adults who want to better understand themselves and create meaningful, lasting change. My approach is insight-oriented and collaborative, helping clients explore patterns, emotions, and underlying dynamics—not just manage symptoms. I’m especially well suited for people who are thoughtful, curious about their inner world, and open to reflection. Therapy with me tends to focus on understanding why things feel the way they do, and how greater awareness can lead to change. If you’re looking for therapy that goes beyond surface-level coping and are willing to engage actively in the process, this may be a good fit.

My degrees encompass Christian Counseling with a Theology minor from Fort Wayne Bible College.

I marry that with Christian Counseling applications. Not only do I teach people how to study the Word, but how to apply it to their own lives in todays world. I work best with teens, individual issues, marriage counseling, widows, widowers, new normal life skills.
