About
Thirty years of sitting with people in hard seasons
I began counseling in a church basement with two folding chairs and a Bible. Since then I’ve walked with hundreds of people through grief, betrayal, fear, and slow, ordinary healing. I don’t offer formulas. I offer attention, Scripture handled with care, and the steady conviction that God is not finished with you.
Read My StoryIn Their Words
“She never once made me feel like a project. She made me feel like a person God had not forgotten.”
“We came in barely speaking to each other. We left with actual tools and, somehow, tenderness.”
“The first time in years someone let me be sad without hurrying me toward a verse.”
“Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”
Matthew 11:28
