Therapeutic Approach

My approach is an integrated model of faith-informed counseling, utilizing evidence-based techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Solution-Focused Therapy. Other therapies may be offered depending on your needs and receptiveness to techniques. I work collaboratively with you to help you meet your therapeutic goals.

  • Depression

    If you are feeling down, unmotivated, isolated, low energy, loss of interests, feeling hopeless, or having suicidal thoughts, you might be experiencing depression.

  • Anxiety

    If you are feeling excessive worry that is difficult to control, having ruminating thoughts, difficulty sleeping, and feeling restless, or irritable, you might be experiencing anxiety.

  • ADHD

    ADHD is more than just hyperactivity or difficulty focusing, which we commonly associate with kids. For adults, it can also look like anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, borderline personality, or trauma.

  • PTSD

    Flashbacks, nightmares, avoiding triggering situations, hypervigilance, anger, irritability, as well as an increase in substance/alcohol use or suicidal thoughts might be evidence you have PTSD.

  • Relationship Issues

    Common issues in relationships are difficulty communicating, and not feeling heard or understood. This can lead to division in relationships ending in divorce or infidelity.

  • Grief

    Grief is very personal, and everyone copes differently. If you have suffered a loss, your pain is real and you might feel many emotions all at once, feel completely numb, or both.

  • Parenting Issues

    Parents experience challenges at all life stages of their child(ren)’s lives. Emotional regulation skills, secure attachment styles, and healthy boundaries can improve relationships and behaviors.

  • Christian Counseling

    Christian values do not have to be compromised and are welcome when working with a faith-informed professional counselor.
