About

With empathy and integrity, I offer a welcoming space where you can offload your burdens and take practical steps toward recovery and growth. Through our time together, my hope is for you to experience healing and wholeness in every area of life – physically, emotionally, mentally, spiritually, and relationally. Whether you’re dealing with symptoms related to anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, grief, anger management, or other concerns, I will work with you to develop a customized treatment plan that respects your faith and values.

My Goal as a Christian Counselor

My goal as a counselor is to offer support, grounded in Scripture, to individuals, couples, and families. My desire is to assist you in navigating life’s obstacles while encouraging spiritual and emotional growth. I work hard to create a safe and comforting environment where clients can address their concerns and experience healing and growth by blending psychological principles with Christian values.

What I Offer in Christian Counseling

You can expect a safe and welcoming environment where you will be heard without judgment. There will be an initial intake session where we will gather background information, discuss your concerns, and set goals. This will help us create a customized treatment plan to help us move toward healing and growth. My prayer is that through our time together, you leave with greater hope for the circumstances you face.

My Approach to Christian Counseling

The benefit of a distinctively Christian approach is inviting Jesus into the process. We need His truth and grace to walk through the hard things in life. As we apply Scripture to our lives and allow the Holy Spirit to transform us, we can experience the renewing of our minds and hearts. I have seen this in my own life and have a desire to help others experience that as well.

Biography

Qualifications & Experience

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a Master of Arts in Counseling, both from Wayland Baptist University. In November 2024 I will be completing my MDiv from Rockbridge Seminary. For the past 20 years I have served in various capacities of pastoral ministry, including roles as a children’s pastor, student pastor, worship pastor, campus pastor, and executive pastor.

My Call to Christian Counseling

Since I was 15, I have felt a calling to ministry. During my senior year of high school, I took a psychology class for college credit and discovered my passion for helping people through therapy. For the past 20 years, I have served as a pastor in the local church, and now I have the privilege of working with individuals and couples through counseling full-time.

More About Me/On a Personal Note

I love the outdoors, including hiking, fishing, and camping. I enjoy playing sports and coaching my boys. My dream one day is to have a woodworking shop. I also enjoy playing guitar, singing, and serving others through the church.

If you’re seeking to grow in your faith and deepen your relationship with God, our sessions will provide a supportive space for your spiritual development.

Through prayer, studying Scripture, and practicing spiritual disciplines, we will work together to foster a relationship with God that reveals His purpose and direction for your life.

Healing from trauma can be a challenging and painful process, but with the right support, recovery is possible. In our sessions, we’ll use an integrative approach that includes trauma-focused therapies and faith-based support to help you process and heal from your experiences. We’ll create a safe and compassionate space where you can explore your emotions, build resilience, and find hope. Through prayer and Scripture, we’ll seek God’s healing and comfort, trusting in His promise to restore and renew.
