I provide remote services only
Since 2011, I’ve helped adults who appear strong on the outside yet feel anxious, discouraged, or spiritually dry inside. Many come to counseling knowing God is good but unsure how to experience His peace in the middle of real-life pain. My work helps people move from striving to abiding, from managing life to being transformed by Christ’s renewing work within.
For more than a decade, I’ve provided direct client care in private practice, walking with men and women through depression, anxiety, and relational hurt toward healing rooted in truth and grace. I integrate biblical wisdom with sound psychology so that growth is both spiritual and emotional change that lasts because it aligns with how God designed us to grow.
I taught graduate-level counseling for six years at the Townsend Institute, where I trained under Dr. John Townsend, co-author of Boundaries. His mentorship deepened my conviction that real healing blends grace, truth, and time the same ingredients we see in Christ’s ministry. I also served as Assistant Director at northern Indiana’s largest community mental health center, supervising 14+ therapists, and later as Program Manager for an adult intensive program focused on spiritual and emotional renewal.
Today, through Dynamic Growth Counseling, I help adults experience freedom and purpose through Christ-centered growth learning to live with peace, connection, and strength that come from the inside out.
