Marriage relationships and parenting can be challenging! I’ve experienced the loneliness of feeling emotionally disconnected from a spouse; I’ve been through the guilt & frustration of feeling like a parenting failure!
I’ve been married to the same guy for several decades now, but we’ve navigated some tough life changes. One of our toughest challenges has been life with a chronic illness.
My faith was tested and stretched when I received a potentially life-altering diagnosis in my 20s. Over the years I have come to use a wheelchair. This experience allows me to deeply connect with others affected by a medical diagnosis.
I focus on your strengths as I assist you to apply biblical truth to your situation. My goal is to help you feel heard and understood; to help you to change your loneliness and dissatisfaction into hope, peace, and contentment.
I counsel using modalities like Relational Life Therapy, experiential therapy, and Gottman Method Couples Therapy. My experience includes helping couples, families, and individuals with a variety of issues including relational conflict, anxiety, depression, substance use, and grief & loss.
Bear one another’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ. Galatians 6:2
I completed the Doctor of Marriage and Family Therapy program at Fuller Theological Seminary with a in June 2023. I previously earned my Master of Science in Marital and Family Therapy with an emphasis in Medical Family Therapy from Fuller Theological Seminary after receiving a BA in Psychology with a minor in Family & Human Development from Arizona State University. I am certain of God’s call into the ministry and into the counseling profession after years as a homeschooling mom and a career in accounting.

As a Licensed Associate Marriage & Family Therapist, I love using an integrative, strengths-based approach to therapy and working collaboratively with my clients to overcome their challenges. I have worked with clients in a number of areas including, but not limited to difficulties with family of origin and differentiation, developmental and adult trauma, relationship and intimacy issues, infidelity, anxiety, and managing life transitions. I also have experience in helping people improve communication, emotion regulation, and conflict management.
As part of the clinical team at Whole Heart Counseling, I believe that whole people connecting with one another enhances the well-being of the family and the entire community.
I validate each person’s experiences and create a safe, supportive environment, allowing clients to build insight and self-awareness. I believe in personal accountability and that a safe environment provides the space and foundation for vulnerability and accountability.
I speak Spanish and can provide tele-therapy or face to face therapy at the Phoenix location only.

At times, we may wish life came with a set of clear instructions; instructions to navigate relationships, instructions to navigate difficult seasons of life, or the struggles we find ourselves facing. Sometimes we realize that the tools we that worked in the past aren’t quite getting the job done anymore.
Thankfully, we can gain insight into what is and what isn’t working for us. We can learn to use new tools.
I’m currently completing my internship in the master of science in marriage and family therapy program at Fuller Theological Seminary. I worked in a social work capacity for an outpatient mental health clinic after graduating from Grand Canyon University with a bachelor degree in behavioral health science. I have realized several things through my experience working with people from all walks and seasons of life – we are all doing our best to navigate life. Life can be tough, and we tend to be our own harshest critics. I have also realized that we all deserve space to be vulnerable, to be seen, and to be validated.
Our traumas do not define us and we don’t have to let our past dictate our future. We don’t have to repeat the patterns learned in our families. There is hope even when it feels hopeless. There is hope.
I would be honored to work with you to help you reach the goals you have set for yourself and for your relationships.

I am no stranger to the difficulties that relationships can present. In my life, the best relationships challenge me to be open, forgiving, and to heal. Meaningful relationships are built over time. It requires nurturing yourself and the person whom the relationship is with.
I have spent over 25 years of my life in supportive roles. I am a teacher in Christian ministry and in my professional life, my focus has been administration. These roles afford me the opportunity to make an impact through teaching, training, and development. The discovery and the impartation of knowledge is a source of great joy in my life. My passion to assist and teach others has led me to the call to promote wholeness in a person’s life by helping to alleviate psychological and emotional suffering.
In my own life, I have struggled with trauma and its long-lasting effects on my interpersonal relationships. I found that I already possessed the resources and strengths needed to overcome life challenges. My clinical approach is client-centered, creating an atmosphere of openness that cultivates self-discovery, growth and a safe place to heal.
I am a counseling intern, completing my Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Grand Canyon University. I received my Bachelor of Psychology at Capella University. It is my goal to extend to my clients the same grace that allowed me to heal and grow. I am humbled at the opportunity to serve you in this capacity.
