- Family Systems Therapy Looks at problems within the context of the family as a whole. It aims to improve communication and balance in family relationships.
- Motivational Interviewing (MI) A collaborative, client-centered approach that strengthens motivation for change. It is especially effective for addictions and health behaviors.

- Narrative Therapy Encourages people to view problems as separate from themselves and reframe their life story. It helps build resilience and self-identity.
- Play Therapy Uses toys, games, and creative play to help children express emotions. It is especially useful when children can’t fully verbalize their feelings.

In Genesis 6-8, there was a great flood. The earth was covered with water and it seemed like all hope was lost. Then Noah sent out a dove to search for new life. That dove returned with an olive branch. That olive branch signified rebirth, new hope, new life. This is why I named my practice, Olive Branch Therapy. To remind you that there is an olive branch in your future. There is hope for you. Hope in your pain, hope in your struggle. I will hold out this hope for you until you can grasp your own olive branch once again.
I specialize using Restoration Therapy. This therapy model, biblically based, helps you discover your pain and peace cycles, personally and in your relationships. By empowering you with this knowledge and how to practically apply it in your life, you are more empowered to ground yourself back into your peace and within your relationships. I integrate Attachment Theory and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy into our work, all while being trauma informed. My hope is that you are heard, seen, helped and served to work through and seek to overcome your challenges.
