You’re overwhelmed, exhausted and burnt out. You’re trying your best and it never feels like enough. Things are getting on top of you. You worry you’re missing something. You just need some help. Or a break. When you rest or take time for yourself, you end up scrolling on social media or watching tv. You don’t rest; you check out. You’re snapping at everyone and feel frustrated all the time. You worry about being an angry person now. Your rage scares you. You haven’t felt like yourself in a long time. It feels like you’re failing or that everything could fall to pieces. It feels like you might fall apart.

I’d be honored to serve you and to encourage you, someone made in the image of God with inconceivable value. My therapeutic approach is grounded in the Biblical principles that can provide hope, redemption, grace, and strength to everyone who believes in them. The truth is, God has loved us from all from the beginning of creation, but due to sin (that is, going against God’s good and moral character in our actions and choices), all of mankind became separated from God, our Creator, who is the ultimate good and strength for our lives.
