About My Clients
You are stuck in patterns in relationships that you can't explain or break free from. Your body feels overwhelmed, anxious, or shutdown -- and you're not sure why. You have learned how to protect yourself in ways that were necessary in the past, but now those protections are getting in your way. I would love to help you name these patterns, meet needs that were never met, and live more freely and genuinely.
My Background and Approach
I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Theology and Ministry from Lipscomb University and a Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy from Trevecca Nazarene University. Before becoming a therapist, I spent years working in ministry with children and students, where I learned the power of presence and compassion. Those experiences still shape how I show up today: with warmth, curiosity, and a steady belief that everyone has the capacity to grow and heal. In my work with individuals and couples, I draw from the Healing Our Core Issues (HOCI) model, Gottman principles, self-compassion practices, and experiential approaches. I’m also a certified Prepare-Enrich facilitator and love working with couples in all stages — whether they’re preparing for marriage or navigating the everyday challenges of partnership.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Clients often describe me as warm, truthful, and hopeful. My style is compassionate and relational — thoughtful without pressure, honest without judgment. My hope is that therapy feels like a soft place to land: a space safe enough to be fully yourself, to slow down, and to remember you’re not alone. I believe the work we do together doesn’t just change one person — it ripples outward into families, friendships, and communities.
