I began my professional career in New York City, working full-time as a Lead Counselor at a respected mental health and recovery agency. This was work I had trained extensively for and took great pride in. I entered the field with a clear vision—to grow into leadership, advance into supervisory roles, and eventually step into a director-level position. I was ambitious, driven, and deeply committed to both my clients and my professional development.
As my responsibilities increased, so did the demands of the role. Long hours, organizational pressures, and the pace of a high-volume clinical environment gradually took a toll. While my work with clients remained meaningful and impactful, I began to experience the same burnout and emotional exhaustion that I so often helped others navigate.
During that time, I found myself searching for clarity and direction. I prayed for guidance, asking God to help me understand what I was meant to do next and how to move forward in a way that was both sustainable and aligned with my values. It became clear that something needed to change—that success could not come at the cost of my well-being, my family, or my sense of purpose.
Along comes baby…
Around this same period, I became a father, and that moment fundamentally reshaped my priorities. Shortly after my son’s birth, our family faced an unexpected challenge that required consistent care and attention. Through prayer, reflection, and many difficult conversations, I made the decision to step away from my role and become a stay-at-home parent so I could fully support my family during a critical season.
Leaving a career I had spent years building was not easy. It required faith, trust, and a willingness to step into the unknown. There were moments of uncertainty, but I truly believe God was guiding me through that transition. This season became one of profound personal and spiritual growth. Being present for my child’s milestones, providing hands-on care, and navigating the daily realities of parenting deepened my understanding of patience, resilience, and the importance of trusting God’s timing.

As time passed, I began to feel a renewed sense of calling, a spiritual pull to serve, to support others, and to use both my life experience, professional background and my faith in a meaningful way. That opportunity came when former colleagues reached out, asking if I would facilitate a small recovery support group. I took it as confirmation that God was leading me back into this work, and I accepted.
What began as a small group grew through word of mouth. People connected with my grounded, honest, compassionate and faith based approach—one that values personal responsibility, growth, and meaningful change. Over time, this evolved into a practice centered on helping individuals and couples navigate life transitions, strengthen relationships, and move forward with clarity and purpose.
Today, my work is focused on providing faith-based guidance and Christian counseling, supporting individuals as they navigate life challenges through a spiritually grounded perspective. For those who desire it, I incorporate prayer, reflection, and Christian principles into our work together—creating space not only for personal growth, but for deeper connection, healing, and direction.

I believe that real change happens when people feel supported, understood, and anchored in something greater than themselves. My faith has carried me through some of the most challenging seasons of my life, and it continues to guide the way I show up for others.
It is an honor to walk alongside my clients as they seek clarity, growth, and a more meaningful and purpose-driven life.
