Our approach at Higher Ground Counseling is grounded in best practices and evidence-based
curriculum. We are committed to providing the most effectve treatment modalites, informed
by the latest research in mental health. A key aspect of our services is the incorporaton of a
Christian worldview, which allows us to offer counseling that not only addresses psychological
and emotonal needs but also supports the spiritual beliefs and values of our clients.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC, MHSP) I specialize in a range of services, including:
• Individual Counseling
• Marriage and Family Therapy
• Group Counseling Sessions
• Faith-Based Counseling
• Substance Abuse Counseling
• Treatment for mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, stress management, and
