I believe at our core, we flourish when we are in healthy relationships with self, others and God. When we experience changes in our life circumstances and relationships, they often bring on stress, anxiety and depression. By discovering the “how and why” of emotional triggers that highjack relationships, the cycles that repeat themselves can undergo lasting change toward health and healing.
I am passionate about walking alongside people on their path of self-understanding, healing and wholeness. My focus is on supporting all couples including pre-marital, and individuals, concerned with:
* Relationship conflict , Anxiety & Depression , Parenting, Grief, Trauma, Life-stage changes , Elder-care, and Medical concerns
My desire is for clients to develop healthy and restorative coping skills, develop self-acceptance, and lean into supportive resources in faith, family, friends and community.
I hold a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy with an emphasis in Medical Family Therapy from Fuller Theological Seminary, and a degree in Social Ecology from the University of CA at Irvine. I have certifications and training in Restorative Therapy, Gottman Couples Therapy, Prepare/Enrich, and in Trauma, Attachment and Neuroscience.
Outside of my professional life, I enjoy being active , spending time with my husband and family along with my pup, exploring nature and the great outdoors.
