Thank you for considering working with me! As a counselor, I desire to help you take steps toward wholeness, fulfillment and peace in whatever circumstances you find yourself. Whether your situation seems hopeless or simply frustrating, I seek ways to help bring relief, hope and light along your path. I respect each person’s right to choose how to live his or her life. I come from a Christian perspective myself, and am poised to incorporate faith into the counseling journey to the extent that you wish to do so. The counseling room is a place for understanding and assistance, not judgment. I have always had a passion for people. I feel deeply honored to have the chance to step into their world and offer support, a listening ear, feedback, and encouragement. This passion led me to counseling. I earned a Master’s in Counseling from Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, and interned at Pleasant Valley Baptist Church and Westside Family Church during my program. My main area of specialty is trauma recovery. I have been trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a leading technique for resolving trauma, and I am in training for Somatic Experiencing (SE), an approach that engages the ways our bodies hold our stories. Maybe you are simply curious whether counseling may be a helpful resource for you—feel free to call with any questions you have, and I would be happy to help you explore your options. Whether now or in the future, I welcome the chance to be a part of your journey.
