Counseling with grace in the thick of life. As a therapist, educated with a solid foundation in Christ’s love and life-giving words, I am ready to invest in you. Thank you for setting aside time for yourself by pursuing counseling. It is not always easy to make a decision that seems to only benefit you, but counseling benefits all who interact with you.
My hope is for us to sit together in the heaviness of grief and emerge with a hope that seemed lost. I am a grief trained therapist who wants to listen to you talk about your loved one, failing marriage, divorce, infertility, unexpected life transition. I want to hold space for you. Come, let’s begin wherever you want to start. I will listen.
