Christian Leaders

Pastors, ministry leaders, and their families face unique pressures. Therapy provides a safe space to process stress, burnout, or personal struggles while staying rooted in faith.Therapy that respects and incorporates your Christian beliefs

Married Couples

Whether you're navigating communication struggles, unresolved hurt, or a season of disconnect, faith-based couples therapy provides a space to heal, reconnect, and build a stronger, more fulfilling marriage.

Premarital Counseling

Go beyond a simple assessment—learn essential skills for communication, conflict resolution, and emotional connection that will empower your marriage for a lifetime.

Parenting Support

Whether you’re adjusting to life with little ones or navigating the complexities of raising older children, therapy provides guidance to strengthen your connection, improve communication, and create a nurturing, faith-filled home.

Trauma & Personal Healing

Past wounds, grief, and life’s hardships can weigh heavily on your heart. Individual therapy integrates faith and mental health to help you process trauma and find healing.

Vision Development

Big decisions and new seasons often bring a mix of excitement, fear, and uncertainty. Therapy helps you process the emotions tied to your vision—clarifying what’s driving you, what’s holding you back, and what truly aligns with your values. By understanding your emotions, you can set meaningful goals and move forward with confidence and faith.

Ministry and family life are fulfilling but can also feel isolating. The pressure to be strong and meet expectations can take a toll. Therapy offers a confidential space to be real, process emotions, and find renewal—because you’re a human first and a leader second.

Your Story Matters

The way we see ourselves is shaped by the stories we tell—about our past, our worth, and what’s possible for our future. If those stories are filled with shame, self-doubt, or old wounds, they can hold us back. Together, we’ll work to rewrite those narratives so they reflect truth, healing, and hope.

Your Emotions Aren’t the Enemy

Big feelings can be overwhelming—whether it’s frustration, anxiety, guilt, or just plain exhaustion. But emotions aren’t problems to fix; they’re signals trying to tell us something. In our work together, we’ll slow down and tune in so you can learn what your emotions are really saying and how to respond in a way that brings peace, not more stress.

You Are Made of Many Parts

Ever feel like part of you wants to rest, but another part can’t stop thinking about all the things that need to get done? Or maybe part of you feels like a great parent or leader, while another part worries you’re not doing enough. We all have different parts of ourselves, and sometimes, they clash. By understanding these different sides of you, we can help them work together instead of pulling you in opposite directions.

Healing Begins With Feeling Safe

If you’ve been through hard things—whether big or small—it makes sense that certain situations, words, or even emotions feel unsafe. Healing isn’t about “just moving on.” It’s about creating space to process, feel safe in your own body and mind, and build trust with yourself again. You don’t have to go through that alone.

You and Your Culture Matter Here

Your background, experiences, and values shape how you see the world—and they should be part of the conversation. Whether your family’s traditions, faith, or identity play a big role in your life, or you’re still figuring that out, I’ll always meet you with understanding and respect. You don’t have to fit into anyone else’s mold to show up as yourself in this space.

Ready to start? Let’s work together to create a path forward—one that honors where you’ve been and leads you toward where you want to be and how you want to lead.
