About

“But blessed are those who trust in the LORD and have made the LORD their hope and confidence. They are like trees planted along a riverbank, with roots that reach deep into the water. Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried by long months of drought. Their leaves stay green, and they never stop producing fruit.” – Jeremiah 17:8 (NLT)

The riverbank, a recurring symbol throughout the Bible, represents a place of profound significance. It is a source of nourishment and refreshment, a place where life flourishes in every season. For Joshua and the people of Israel, it marked the crossing into the Promised Land, and for Elisha, it was where he received the spirit of Elijah after witnessing his ascension.

Beyond refreshing, the riverbank is a place of decision. Perhaps you find yourself on its edge, longing for the steadfastness of the trees described in Jeremiah 17, yet feeling undeserving of God’s promises. Or you might be poised to cross into your Promised Land, but the waters seem too vast, and the shadows of your past loom behind you.

I hold a firm conviction in the Lord’s desire for healing and transformation. As a licensed trauma therapist, I have been blessed to walk with diverse individuals as they navigate the path to recovery from past traumas. My approach seamlessly blends Christian faith and worldview with innovative, evidence-based therapeutic interventions, all meticulously customized to your unique needs.

Wherever you are on the riverbank, my heartfelt desire is to see you healed and enveloped in the Father’s boundless love. It would be my utmost honor to accompany you on your journey toward wholeness.
