I believe Jesus is the ultimate healer, and that He has given us resources to use for our mental health and wellbeing. Mental health growth takes time, and we must have grace for ourselves. Having done my own work in counseling in the past, I offer empathy, trustworthiness, and knowledge through professional training and personal experience to help you overcome the challenges you face. I offer counseling for children, teens, adult individuals, couples, and families dealing with a variety of concerns including trauma and PTSD, relationship issues, depression, anxiety, and more.
As your counselor, it would be my privilege to walk with you through the difficulties you are dealing with in life. I have seen the Lord do amazing work in individuals and relationships through Christian counseling – including my own – and I would be honored to witness His transforming work in your life as well. Nothing is impossible with God. With His help, along with the truths of His Word, the power of the Holy Spirit, and the effective tools available through counseling, you can experience the lasting change and healing you desire.
About Covenant Counseling
My Approach to Christian Counseling
One major benefit to a Christian approach to counseling is that God is the Creator of the universe, including us! God has given us His instruction book, the Bible, which I believe supports so much of our psychological wellbeing. My faith informs my practice in everything I do. My foundational beliefs as a counselor align with the Word of God. I find so much affirmation in the Bible regarding our mental health and how to heal from trauma, pain, anxiety, depression, and so much more. To be able to search the Scriptures and the faith of Christianity with my clients alongside psychological counseling theories is the ultimate recipe for healing and living our most productive lives.
Qualifications & Experience
I have a Bachelor of Arts in Ministry Leadership from Northwest University in Kirkland, WA and a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. My internship was at the Stephen A. Cohen Clinic (Valley Cities) in Lakewood, WA. All of my clients were post-9/11 veterans, active duty, or family members of the two. I have been a youth mentor for almost 20 years and a deacon in my church for eight years, providing informal counseling to members of the church.

Empowering You to Achieve your goal
Individual Counseling
Individual Counseling
Individual Counseling
Our individual counseling services are designed to help you overcome personal challenges and achieve your goals. Our licensed counselors provide a supportive and non-judgmental environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings, gain insights into your behavior, and develop strategies for positive change.
Marriage Counseling
Individual Counseling
Individual Counseling
Marriage is hard. Many of us come from broken relationships with lots of baggage. Basic healthy communication is rare and can make or break a good marriage. Having a third party to help work through relationship issues can change the whole trajectory of a marriage. Couples counseling does not only apply to those who think their marriage needs to be “fixed.” Instead, marriage therapy can be seen as “marriage enrichment” and can be hugely beneficial to all married couples.
Family Counseling
Individual Counseling
Child & Adolescent Counseling
Our family counseling services are designed to help families overcome challenges related to communication, conflict, and other issues. Our licensed therapists work with families to identify strengths and weaknesses, improve communication and problem-solving skills, and develop a stronger sense of cohesion and support.
Child & Adolescent Counseling
Coaching and Spiritual Development
Child & Adolescent Counseling
In the adolescent stage of life, there can be so much confusion, yet it is such an important time to establish fundamental adaptive coping skills for an individual’s future wellbeing. My passion for working with adolescents stems from my own struggles as a teenager and wishing I had an empathetic and understanding counselor I could have established a trusting relationship with to help me through those confusing years.
Trauma and PTSD
Coaching and Spiritual Development
Coaching and Spiritual Development
Trauma can have a lifetime effect on those who suffer from it. When an individual experiences trauma, their minds and bodies naturally respond by establishing maladaptive and survival coping mechanisms. My approach to trauma treatment is through Cognitive Behaviors and Cognitive Processing, where I come alongside my clients to help them process through their trauma in a safe and healthy way while helping them create more adaptive coping skills in the process.
Coaching and Spiritual Development
Coaching and Spiritual Development
Coaching and Spiritual Development
Healthy coaching and spiritual development are important in all areas of life, from nutrition, finances, parenting, relationships, and more. Growing up playing competitive sports and also being a varsity girls soccer coach has helped me realize how important it is for us to be coachable. As your counselor, I would be honored to help you fulfill your greatest God-given potential.
Sessions: I offer 53-minute sessions. Sessions can be held more than once per week, weekly, or every other week. Scheduling options are discussed in greater detail during your Risk-Free Initial Session.
Fees: I offer a Risk-Free Initial Session for individuals, couples, and families looking to pursue counseling with me. Please note that there is a fee for the Risk-Free Initial Session as it is a clinical hour and reimbursable to most insurance companies, but if you choose not to reschedule and continue therapy after the initial session the entire fee for the session will be waived. For ongoing treatment the full fee per session is required at the time of service.
Insurance: As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor Associate (LMHCA), some insurance companies will reimburse for a portion of my services (as an Out of Network Provider). Please consult with your insurance provider as to whether they specifically cover adolescents, individuals and couples.
Receipts/Statements: In the event you require a printed or digital receipt, I will provide receipts for personal use, insurance reimbursement, Flex Spending Accounts (FSA), and Health Savings Accounts (HSA).
Payment options: Cash, Check, or Credit Card (Visa, MasterCard, Discover, & American Express). A fee of up to 4% per transaction will be added for credit card payments.
