behaviors, and identify practical ways to overcome unwanted
feelings, habits, and relational dynamics. Using proven
therapeutic methods, we'll seek to replace distortions with the

Relationship Issues
In counseling for relationship issues, we will explore your various styles of communication, conflicts styles, and boundaries. I will dive deeper by asking about past family dynamics, rules and assumptions, common scripts as parent, adult, child, boundary types, and parenting styles.
Spiritual Development
I would be honored to help you grow in your spiritual development. In session, we will follow the psycho-social developmental stages based on your current relationship with God and identify how your life pattern has either regressed or moved forward based on your life choices. We will explore the Scriptures together to encourage spiritual growth.
Anger Management
In counseling for anger management, I will begin by helping you establish an awareness of your tension level, describe the sensations of your body when you're angry, explain the situation, and describe what took place. I will teach you how to become aware of your primary feelings, identify them, and process these primary feelings in a healthier pattern, such as accepting them rather than fighting the emotions. We may need to address effective communication by learning and practicing assertive communication and using "I" statements. Depending on the circumstances, we may also discuss boundaries and conflict management and styles.
Anxiety
If you're battling with anxious feelings and thoughts, help is available. Together we will identify the specific triggers to your anxiety and implement practical ways to reduce your symptoms. I will teach you various coping skills to help you deal with the physical sensation of anxiety by counteracting the body's adrenaline response. By using these proven tools, it's possible to reverse the vicious cycle of anxiety and live a peaceful life in Christ.
Depression
Depression is a common struggle for many individuals. If you're wrestling with symptoms of depression, I would be happy to work with you. Using Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we will address the distortions in your thought process and core beliefs. I will teach you the cycle of depression and how to reverse it with practical tools and exercises. We'll also explore how God sees and feels about you. With His help, it is possible to think differently based on the truth of His Word.
