Topics I Counsel Most Often
Fear and Anxiety
The world can feel overwhelming at times, and it’s okay to feel shaken by fear, anxiety, or even panic. It’s my honor to step into that tender, uncertain space with you, gently walking alongside you toward anxiety—not as an enemy, but as a doorway. Together, we’ll discover how this journey can deepen your trust and faith in God in a beautiful, transformative way.
Emotional Health
“A healthy, godly emotional life doesn't just happen. It takes work, time, and grace. An enormous amount of work, actually — and a *lifetime* of grace. But it's a different kind of work than you might think. In fact, all Christians seeking to live faithfully before the Lord and grow in relationship with him are working on their emotions, though most aren't consciously aware of it.”
-Alistair Groves & Winston Smith
Sorrow and Depression
“Realistic hope runs deeper than any pain. It can take the same experience and offer a different script and meaning. Deep pain so easily gets infected and turns self-destructive. But pain and loss can transform into a deeper good—still fierce, still sorrowing, but now clean. Not only clean, but hopeful, fruitful, wise, and loving.”
-David Powlison
Past Abuse and Trauma
“Each story of trauma in Scripture is embedded into the larger and better story of redemption - these accounts are never erased or treated as insignificant. God redeems, and he also remembers each tear.”
- Darby Strickland
Marriages and Relationships
Relationships can be a beautiful yet challenging journey—whether it’s the ache of lost connection, the weight of past hurts, strained family ties, or the end of a cherished friendship. It’s my privilege to walk gently alongside you in this tender space, whether you’re seeking healing from broken relationships or practical, heartfelt ways to nurture the ones you hold dear. Together, we’ll walk with the Lord asking him to guide us toward faithful, loving relationships.
Scrupulosity
Scrupulosity can feel overwhelming, with doubts and guilt weighing heavily on your heart. It’s my privilege to walk gently with you, offering compassion as we explore these challenges. Together, we’ll lean on biblical truths to ease perfectionism and fear, helping you find peace and freedom in God’s grace.
