To restore Christ in counseling and reestablish counseling to the church. Jesus knows and cares about all of our struggles. Therefore, the Bible is meant to be preached, taught, and counseled with application purposes in regard to individual people. The body of Christ is a community that God uses for transformation. We want to help bring significant change to people’s lives. 

“The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.”
Psalms 34:18

“All scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness...”
2 Timothy 3:16

I have worked in the field of counseling since August of 2018. I graduated from Grand Canyon University with a master’s in Christian counseling and graduated from Angelo State University with a bachelor’s in science. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. My training comes from a variety of settings including 5 years as a teacher in a private Christian school, practicum experience on a crisis intervention unit associated with a hospital, and community involvement with a local agency in Wichita county.

Much of my experience includes assisting individuals and support groups in areas concerning abuse, domestic violence, sexual assault, trauma, depression, anxiety, marriage, grief, miscarriage, and self-esteem issues. I offer Christian, client-centered therapy techniques with the inclusion of cognitive behavioral methods. I understand that I should focus on what people believe about themselves, others, and the world around them. I concentrate on the fact that we are all given will power to make our own choices regarding beliefs, thoughts, actions, and emotions. I believe that when we allow the Holy Spirit to guide our decisions, then our perspective of life and how we choose to live can be adjusted in a more meaningful way.
 
I place much value in a holistic approach that incorporates the mind, body, and spirit and I recognize that each person holds varying perspectives and needs. I am seeking to assist you in setting and achieving your goals and this can be gained by examining and changing thought patterns that are negative and problematic; as well as exploring feelings and identifying behaviors that are hindering your potential and/or are self-destructive. When we analyze our thoughts, emotions, and actions, we can determine the truth underneath the concerns. This discovery will allow for you to make positive adjustments and then you can live a life full of opportunity. The purpose of counseling is to learn how to have healthier and more satisfying relationships and to live life according to your beliefs and values.
