Let me guess:

You’re looking for real help. not just quick fixes.

You're exhausted from feeling stuck, overwhelmed by anxiety, weighed down by past wounds, or constantly battling the feeling that you're not enough. You've tried pushing through on your own, but it's draining. You know something needs to change.

I understand because I've been there, and I also know the power of therapy, especially when it honors both your emotional life and your walk with God. You deserve to feel seen, heard, and supported in a way that sparks real, lasting change.

Deep down, you want more than coping. You want clarity, confidence, closer relationships, and a life that actually feels peaceful. You’re ready to heal and not just survive.

you’re in the right spot.

How I work

Healing isn’t one-size-fits-all. My approach is holistic and Christ-centered, honoring the connection between your mind, emotions, body, and spiritual life. You are more than symptoms—you’re a whole person with a God-authored story.

Whether you're facing anxiety, depression, relationship patterns, or attachment wounds, our work together will help you understand your emotions, make sense of your experiences, and take meaningful steps toward healing.

Clients describe me as warm, real, and deeply attuned. I listen closely—not just to your words, but to your heart. Therapy with me is not about “fixing” you. It's about helping you reconnect with yourself, hear God more clearly, and move toward a life that feels peaceful, purposeful, and aligned with who He created you to be.

I draw from evidence-based modalities like IFS, EFIT, CBT, MBCT, and attachment-based approaches, always integrating faith in a way that feels natural and supportive.

Authenticity

Healing begins with real connection. I show up as my genuine self and create a space where you can do the same. No filters, no pressure, no judgment.

My core values

GROWTH

Healing is transformation. I help you learn, evolve, and step into the life God is inviting you into—with clarity and confidence.

compassion

You are more than what you’ve been through. I meet you with patience, understanding, and care as you navigate life’s challenges.

connection

We heal in relationship, not isolation. Therapy becomes a safe place to feel understood, supported, and deeply valued.

Honesty

You deserve a therapist who tells the truth with gentleness. I offer clear, compassionate guidance rooted in biblical and clinical wisdom.

Safety

Emotional and spiritual safety matter. I provide a non-judgmental, grounded, Scripture-aligned environment where you can explore your thoughts and emotions freely.

in therapy with me…

Therapy with me is collaborative, Christ-centered, and emotionally attuned. Here’s what you can expect in our work together.

We’ll go deep.

Together, we explore the patterns, beliefs, and experiences shaping your story. This space helps you uncover what’s been holding you back, find healing for old wounds, and move forward with clarity.

You’re in charge.

You set the pace. My role is to guide, support, and help you hear God’s voice more clearly—not to take over your process. You’ll feel respected, empowered, and safe to lead your own healing.

I’ll cheer you on.

I’m here to remind you of your progress, your strength, and the resilience God has placed within you. When things get hard, I help you stay grounded and hopeful—you’re never walking this alone.

What Sessions Look Like.

Each session is online and tailored to what you’re walking through that week. We’ll slow down, explore what’s happening internally, and use evidence-based tools to help you feel grounded and supported. You’ll leave each session with clarity, direction, and a sense of peace.

Throughout our work, you’ll have space to invite God into your healing process in a way that feels natural, personal, and aligned with your faith.

The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me,
Because the LORD has anointed me
To bring good news to the humble and afflicted;
He has sent me to bind up the wounds of the brokenhearted,
To proclaim release [from confinement and condemnation] to the captives
And freedom to prisoners.

Isaiah 61:1 (AMP)

frequently asked questions *

  • Yes. I provide online Christian therapy for clients across all of Texas, including Austin, Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, Fort Worth, and surrounding areas.

  • I combine evidence-based therapy with a Christ-centered approach. This means we explore your emotions, relationships, and personal story through both clinical tools and biblical truth. You can bring Scripture, prayer, and faith questions into the session as much or as little as you’d like- your comfort level guides the process.

  • Yes! Online therapy is just as effective as in-person counseling for most concerns. All sessions take place through a secure video platform, allowing you to meet from anywhere in Texas. Many clients appreciate the convenience, privacy, and comfort of receiving therapy from their own home or office.

  • My relationship with the Lord is the foundation of my life, and I’ve personally experienced the healing, clarity, and peace that come from walking closely with Him. I incorporate faith into therapy because many of my clients want support that honors their beliefs, aligns with Scripture, and helps them strengthen their relationship with God while working through emotional and relational challenges. Integrating biblical truth with evidence-based therapy creates a powerful space for transformation- spiritually, emotionally, and personally.
