About Therapy
You’re in a sea of the unknown.
You’re out of answers. It’s scary.
Things just aren’t going the way you hoped they would. Which doesn’t make sense because it’s not for lack of trying.
You’ve done everything you know how to do, yet there is more struggle than joy.
It’s difficult to ask for help. You’re here though, wondering if getting help will help.
You are the captain…and I am your navigator.
You tell me where you want to go, and I help you get there.
This is a team effort. You’re in charge – you decide what we work on and how fast or slow we go. This is your time, in a safe place. No judgment, no shame. I will help you work through it and come out on the other side a better person.
Your values are our compass. One question I will ask you at your first visit is, “How will you know therapy is over?” That’s what we’re after – that answer sets our course. If you’re not sure you can answer that question, that’s okay! I can help with that, too.
Before we chart the course, we’ll look at where you are…
… we will take a glimpse at where you’ve been, and then we’ll talk about what you are hoping for.
What has worked for you in the past? I will support you in those things. When we talk, I keep a lookout for the obstacles and give you the missing tools to get around them.
What stopped working? Once upon a time, you were doing fine. We often attempt those same strategies because they once worked. We know they’re not working anymore, but we don’t know what to do differently. I will provide you with new tools and skills for your unique voyage.
I believe everyone needs help at some point, even Captains. You don’t have to do this alone.

About Me
During a difficult transition time in adolescence, I remember feeling 
misunderstood and alone. I wasn’t sure where to turn, and so I “figured it out” myself. It is my hope that others will know that they do not have to figure it out alone. There is someone who understands, someone to walk alongside them in their journey.
I know what’s possible with the right support and the right tools. I strive to equip others for a more abundant and more joyful life experience. If I can do it, so can you!
My goal is to provide my clients with help for today, but also to equip them for a better tomorrow.

When I’m not doing therapy…
It is a time of transition in my home, with 2 kids at FSU! We are learning new rhythms of communication and independence. I am very proud of how both kids have grown and excited to see how God continues to grow them.
I always say I have more hobbies than I have time, but I default to being outside. I am frequently on the beach reading, paddle boarding, bike riding, or even doing yard work – everything is more fun outside. One day I’ll “find” time to learn the guitar, and I have six books stacked next to my bed that I’ll never get to but I keep trying. I’m in the beginning stages of writing a book and growing my ministry in addition to the work I do here at Elbow Tree.
Balancing family relationships, friendships, work, and making time for fun…In all situations, I rely heavily on my relationship with Jesus for strength and guidance.
