I'm real, down to earth, approachable, and I use humor in our sessions. I don't think therapy should be stale, cold, or sterile. You’ll see that I practice with a nonjudgmental and transformation in mind while sprinkling a lot of compassion all around. I may have gone through lengthy and specific training/education to be in the role I am but that doesn’t make me any better than you or the “expert” of your life. You’re the expert of your life and I have the skill set to help guide you to make meaningful changes in your life. You’ll leave our sessions with practical skills to help you manage the difficult issues you are facing.

Being a therapist is more than just a “job” to me, it reflects a core part of me that enjoys getting to know people on a deeper level and watching the positive impact therapy can make in another person.

I enjoy spending time with my family outside at the lake fishing, reading, and recently have gotten into baking with sourdough.

I start my morning before anyone in my house gets up to spend time reading a devotional and then working out. I find that I'm grounded and have more energy when I put that first.

When Fear Meets Faith. This devotional has truly changed my relationship with anxiety and has been able to view my emotions from a faith-based perspective.
