Counseling for Christian Leaders

I’m glad you’re here.

I’m a licensed mental health therapist in Seattle passionate about giving people a safe place to wrestle with pain, loss, trauma, shame and grief where they know their unique story will be honored.

I invite you to healing, to a place of restoration, to the person you want to be. It is a worthy road, a path where facing your pain, sadness and loss leads to healing and wholeness.

Our work together is to help you make meaningful changes in your life: this may mean learning new ways to cope, learning and leaning into your strengths, finally allowing yourself to feel the sadness or anger that has always felt too scary or dangerous to acknowledge, or finding new insights into the way you relate to yourself and others that hinder who you really want to be.

— IF YOU’RE HURTING, THERAPY CAN HELP —

  • Recovering from trauma utilizing EMDR

  • Rebuilding after loss— death, divorce, break-up

  • Overcoming depression and anxiety

  • Coping with infertility and IVF

  • Healing from Postpartum depression

  • Navigating complexities of depression and anxiety in Christian leadership

You can heal from even your deepest pain and use it to bring growth and new life. If you know you’d like things to be different, but don’t know where to start, reach out to set up a consultation.

I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation. Feel free to give me a call. Get to know me, ask questions, and from there we can decide if we're a good fit working together. 

 

Trauma and Treatment With EMDR
If you’re recognizing how your past still haunts you- whether that is one terrible moment or a time riddled with them: I utilize EMDR to help you process through the trauma and build a stronger sense of what you’ve overcome.

Depression and Anxiety
If you are struggling to feel like you used to, if you don’t have the energy or courage to do the things you value: I use evidence-based therapy modalities to help you heal from depression or anxiety and live the life you want to live with bravery.

Couples Therapy
If you’re not connecting the way you used to, or if there’s been betrayal and recovery of trust feels impossible: I help you repair communication and renew the relationship.

Postpartum Depression

If you have been brought down by emotions you never thought you would feel toward yourself or your baby: we will work together so you feel strong and resilient again, and then rebuild joy and trust in yourself.

Counseling for Christian Leaders
If you or your partner are in ministry and want a safe place to wrestle and weep, admit you’re depressed, or process an intense time of change or loss: I will walk alongside you to face the suffering God has allowed as we work together to rebuild your faith for the road ahead.

Infertility & IVF

If you’re facing the loneliness and hopelessness of infertility; or you have started down the road of IVF and are dealing with stressors or disappointments: we will grieve together and create a path forward.
