"Grace is the face loves wears when it meets imperfection"
Grace really does change everything. Showing it to ourselves, others, and eventually the world we live in is huge. I believe and have experienced how grace can move mountains and make the impossible possible. Grace makes space for hope to be born!
I get it, considering a counselor can be a daunting task and finding someone you can connect with and trust is huge. It's important the person you choose is not only qualified and competent but is someone who cares and has your best interest in mind. Let me tell you a bit about myself.
I currently hold a Master of Arts in Counseling from Western Seminary and a Master of Arts in Biblical Studies from Cincinnati Christian University. After serving in pastoral ministry for over 20 years as well as working in addiction recovery for 10 years, I bring a unique, caring, and compassionate perspective into counseling. My passion is to journey alongside those who are troubled, hurting, and exhausted in a way that provides healing and hope. My theory base is Solution Focused Therapy as well as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Narrative Therapy.
Outside the office, I enjoy time with my family, throwing clay, and riding my motorcycle throughout the northwest.
NOTE: THE ONLY INSURANCE I AM ABLE TO BILL DIRECTLY IS PACIFICSOURCE HEALTH PLANS, INCLUDING OHP. THANK YOU
