(949) 386-7181 connect@cachristiancounseling.com

I’ve been in your shoes in the past, seeking to find help from a Christian counselor – yet all I found were people who relied on their label as a Christian and their knowledge of science to counsel. This led me to strive to be more, with God’s help. Through my professional training, I sought to find out how the Bible informs our mental health and psychological well-being so I could give my clients a solid foundation of truth to use against any of their mental health and relational challenges. I bring this knowledge into each session, allowing His truths to provide real, lasting healing.

MA, LMFT Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
(949) 386-7178 connect@cachristiancounseling.com

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), I realize that many of our deepest pains, anxieties, and self-limiting beliefs can go way back in our lives. As a result, we can often be living lives that don’t resemble our ideals or heartfelt dreams because of discouragements from outside or within. However, as a Christian therapist, I also believe that there is a good and ennobling plan of God at work in each individual’s life. My desire as your counselor is to humbly and faithfully pursue that plan with you and assist you with every tool, Scripture, and belief at your disposal.
