Becoming a therapist wasn’t a straight line for me—it was a series of callings and quiet nudges that kept drawing me back to people and their stories. I’ve always been moved by how we love, how we heal, and how faith and relationships shape who we become. Over time, I began to see how deeply faith, attachment, and relationships are woven together—not just in the lives of others, but in my own.

I saw how faith can steady us in hard seasons and how disconnection—from partners, from ourselves, or from God—can leave people feeling lost and unsure how to find their way back. As I learned more about attachment and emotional bonding, so many pieces fell into place. This curiosity and calling deepened during my graduate training at Phillips Graduate Institute, where my research explored the impact of spiritual and religious practices on mental health and wellbeing in Christian families from an attachment perspective. What started as compassion grew into a clear direction for my work.

Pursuing therapy—and specializing in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)—felt like stepping into what I was meant to do: creating a safe, faith-aware space where people can understand themselves more gently, heal relationship wounds, and build stronger, more secure connections. It’s a privilege to walk with people in that process, and if this is the kind of healing you’re seeking, I’d be honored to walk with you.
