As a licensed psychologist serving North Carolina, I specialize in guiding individuals and couples through complex life transitions and emotional challenges. My professional approach integrates evidence-based psychological techniques with a Christian perspective, offering clients both clinical insight and spiritual support. Together, we work to heal and restore the body, mind, and spirit impacted by the experiences of trauma and life’s hardships.

Central to my practice is the belief that spiritual discipline can serve as a powerful therapeutic tool. I help clients recognize how God’s presence in the midst of pain provides strength, resilience, and the resources needed to overcome life’s struggles. This faith-informed perspective allows me to offer compassionate, holistic care for adults navigating stress, trauma, family dynamics, and personal growth.

I have extensive experience supporting clients with anxiety, grief, communication difficulties, and relationship issues. My practice particularly focuses on veterans, caregivers, individuals, and couples facing significant life changes such as overcoming trauma, chronic health conditions, marital issues, pregnancy, career issues, and midlife challenges.

My therapeutic style blends evidence-based methods with empathy and foundational Christian practices. I strive to create a safe, supportive environment where clients can explore difficult emotions, confront feelings of guilt or shame, and pursue personal transformation. My ultimate goal is to empower each person to stay Christ centered as they develop spiritual and emotional resilience, learn how to prevent retraumatization and burnout, and restore their moral agency.
