You keep worrying about the same problem over and over.
Constantly stressed, exhausted, irritable, or overwhelmed, you are fed up!
Your self-esteem is at rock bottom, and you feel powerless over negative self-talk.
You likely have high standards for yourself, but you often feel like you don't measure up.
You wish there was somebody to talk to, but you don't trust others easily.
You know you want more out of life, but you just need some help digging deeper and finding some peace.
I see each person as valuable in the eyes of God, so I approach therapy with that same value on each person. I use a variety of therapy techniques to show grace, confront hard truths, and build strengths in each person with whom I work. I approach therapy from a holistic point of view, starting with the presenting issue, and moving outward from there. I would be honored to walk alongside of you during your journey of healing!
I have found that many of our struggles in adulthood have stemmed from learned behaviors and responses in childhood. Even in the earliest years of life, we are learning communication styles, coping strategies, and emotional regulation skills. Sometimes what we have learned doesn't serve us as well as we'd like.
In gardening, the unwanted or overgrown parts of a plant must be trimmed back or cut away to allow for fruit or blossoms to grow. Sometimes, we need to do the same in our life. Although pruning may sound painful and difficult, it is not a punishment. Pruning enhances growth by removing what inhibits us and allows us to grow. I’m here to help you remove the unwanted thoughts, behaviors, and habits in order to help you grow in love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23).
