The quality of our relationships determines the quality of our lives.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who specializes in marriage counseling, with a focus on how early attachment patterns impact the way we connect, love, and heal in relationship. I utilize Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help couples deepen emotional safety and connection, and I am Level 2 trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS), a powerful model that helps individuals identify and unburden the parts of themselves that carry pain from the past.

It is a privilege to walk alongside individuals and couples from all backgrounds, helping them uncover the unconscious undercurrents that shape their emotional lives. My approach integrates Christian faith and clinical insight, supporting clients as they grow in awareness and experience the freedom and fullness of life that Christ offers (John 10:10).

I believe that the quality of our lives is directly tied to the quality of our relationships—with ourselves, with others, and with God. My work is especially focused on counseling ministry leaders and fellow counselors, offering a safe and restorative space to process, heal, and lead more wholeheartedly.

As Harville Hendrix says, “The unconscious purpose of marriage is to complete childhood.” This idea speaks not only to our earthly relationships but also to our spiritual journey. By exploring how early attachments influence all areas of life, clients can move toward deeper healing, connection, and transformation.

The Benefits of Therapy

Please feel free to reach out and let me know how I can compassionately support you as you navigate whatever crisis you may be facing. The Chinese symbol for “crisis” also conveys “opportunity”—a reminder that it’s often through our most challenging moments that real transformation becomes possible. As it’s been said, we don’t usually change until the pain of staying the same outweighs the pain of changing.

As an experienced Licensed Professional Counselor, it is an honor to assist you in exploring your core issues and moving toward a healthier, more fulfilling life. I utilize a variety of evidence-based approaches, including:

  • Cognitive and Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

  • Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)

  • Imago Relationship Therapy

  • Internal Family Systems (IFS)

Together, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan that reflects your unique story, values, and goals.

With honesty and compassion, I’ll work with you to foster open communication, inner clarity, and healing. One of our key goals will be cultivating self-compassion—an essential tool for navigating life’s difficulties with resilience and grace. The number one predictor of long term mental health is the ability to calm oneself.  As you grow in this area, you’ll be better equipped to face the future with a sense of wholeness, productivity, and joy.
