HELLO!

I am a follower of Jesus with over 25 years of experience in the mental health field including community mental health, hospice bereavement care, and private practice therapy. 
​
​​It's a combination of my own stories, experiences, and training that have led me to uniquely understand how trauma affects our hearts, minds & bodies. Whether it is small "t" trauma that has happened over time, or big "T" trauma that happened once, I can walk with you to explore where Jesus is inviting you to healing and freedom. I utilize the Scriptures and the truth of the Gospel as the foundation of my work with clients, while also understanding the complexities of grief, trauma and abuse. 

In addition to therapy, I also offer deliverance coaching for those who do not want or need ongoing counseling services, but want to address spiritual entanglements.  Please see my Services page to get more info. Do no hesitate to complete the Contact form on my site if you have any questions. I look forward to hearing from you!
