“Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep” - Romans 12:15

As a counselor, I have the privilege of entering the vulnerable spaces of people's lives. This allows me to walk alongside people, witnessing the transformative work of God. God desires for us to know Him, to be known by Him, and to connect with others. While God provides the deepest true healing, I believe He often works through our relationships to fulfill His purpose. My desire is to come alongside individuals, both in times of joy and times of struggle, with great empathy and understanding. I especially desire to work with children and teens as they sort through developmental difficulties, life transitions, family issues, relationships, and mental health concerns.
