Personal Statement

I specialize in providing both marriage and individual counseling related to trauma and crisis management. I also work with adolescents struggling with conduct and behavioral issues. If you are having trouble trusting your partner, years after becoming aware of an extra-marital affair, professional assistance could be what you need.

My passion for this work probably stems from my own personal experiences. I am a wife and mother who works diligently to balance a career and family, so I understand how complicated life can get. Unfortunately, I do not have all the answers. But in my experience, I have come to realize that most of the answers already exist inside of you and my job is to listen. And with my training, understanding of mental heath and Christian values, I can assist you discover your own strengths and learn effective techniques that will help you face your challenges.

Participating in marriage counseling may be the best decision for your family. Can you imagine what it would be like to have a happy marriage? If you find yourself being defensive, needing to justify your actions or even avoiding conversations with your spouse, you may be in a very unhealthy relationship.

Even for individual sessions, change is a process and requires a lot of effort. Do you remember what it was like to make progress in your life or how to be truly happy? Do you feel like your life is on "repeat?" It may be time for you to face your trauma and start loving yourself again. Truth is, the only one interfering with your progress is you. So how about we work together to get things back on track.

Whatever the circumstance, it may be time for a change and you do not have to do it alone.
