Therapist Overview
My professional counseling is from a faith-based perspective and I strive to assist clients as they choose the pathways that will bring hope and healing. Central to my counseling philosophy is the belief that each person longs to “be known”. Through the counseling relation, the therapist and client work together to explore the client’s inner world. The goal to “be known” is reached through sharing one’s story and through increased self awareness . The counseling relationship is a healing relationship. This healing relationship very often brings about lasting change in the client’s life, bringing meaning, purpose, and direction. I work with teens with self-destructive behaviors by treating the underlying causes of the behavior. I counsel with struggling individuals who have depressive symptoms, anxiety, trauma, addictions, and/or substance abuse. I offer family-focused therapy that looks at the whole person and the family system. I see adults, children and teens. I have been in practice
