My Approach
1 in 4 people experience a mental health issue in their lifetime. Through an evidence-based approach rooted in biblical principles, I contextualize counseling care to meet your unique needs. My clinical passions are drawn from my personal experiences of growing up in a dysfunctional family. I didn’t have the space, nor was I encouraged to process the hurts I experienced. Instead, I internalized them, which translated to years of unrealized self-harm. I had low self-esteem, struggled with depression, anxiety, setting boundaries and perfectionism.
I believe that what we do flows from who we are. And it was with the help of a counselor I was able to uncover unhealthy narratives I believed, while doing the work of learning how to implement healthier ways of loving myself and others. It is a process that takes work but in the end, results in healing, resilience and growth.
I love working with children (6+), couples and adults. If you have questions or wonder what therapy is all about, schedule a free 15 minute consult that is risk free with no financial commitment. For more information, visit counselingatcornerstone.com.
